Comments on: The Power of Zero: Fat Talk Free Week Video http://www.drrobynsilverman.com/body-image/the-power-of-zero-fat-talk-free-week-video/ The Official Blog of Dr. Robyn Silverman Wed, 17 Mar 2010 21:00:57 -0400 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.2 hourly 1 By: Cherrie Herrin-Michehl, MA, LMHC http://www.drrobynsilverman.com/body-image/the-power-of-zero-fat-talk-free-week-video/comment-page-1/#comment-2242 Cherrie Herrin-Michehl, MA, LMHC Thu, 03 Dec 2009 04:36:02 +0000 http://www.drrobynsilverman.com/?p=2249#comment-2242 Thank you so much for putting the spotlight on this "less is more" problem about body size. Americans see 250,000 ads by the time they are 17, so it's no wonder we are sucked into a tsunami of feeling bad about our bodies. When women and girls look at beauty/fashion magazines, they feel much more depressed. It is time to work to stamp out the army of negative messages and replace them with truth.

Rather than saying "you're great as you are", which is true, of course (-; let's get to the core of the toxin: let's move toward subverting that abusive paradigm that so many people in our culture have fallen victim to. We shouldn't even have to ask if we're acceptable, we get to KNOW that we are!

I've been putting word out myself and think it is a fantastic thing. Hopefully it takes wind throughout the country and becomes a hugely powerful wave of change -- and a needed one. Terrific blog as well...I wish you all the best! Kind regards, August McLaughlin www.healthynutritiontalk.com (my blog) Hi Robyn,
