Does size matter?

Page 1: Does your size matter?

If you could change one thing about yourself what would it be?

For many people it would be the way they look – in particular their weight.

Ours is a society that has become obsessed with size. The results of surveys about how people perceive weight can be alarming.
One survey found more than 80% of women thought they would have a better social life if they were slimmer and that 70% of the people asked thought overweight people were perceived as less intelligent!

Another survey of personnel officers found many of them would prefer to give jobs to people of ‘normal weight’! It is easy to see why people get hung up about their weight and why there is such a dazzling array of diets on offer!

This culture has many dangers. One is that very often a quick fix or miracle cure is being sought. This is not only unrealistic. The ‘quick fix’ options are often unhealthy with people resorting to unhealthy eating regimes or even worse. People can sacrifice their health in search of looking slimmer. Often the desired weight loss isn’t even achieved. Even if they initially lose weight it is put back on again.

Another danger is that people have a false idea of what life would be like if they were a different size. Going from Size 16 to Size 12 does not turn your husband into George Clooney. Getting into that dress will not see your house in Newport Pagnell transform into a luxury home off Hollywood Boulevard.
