I Hate Nutrisystem!

It was bad enough when Nutrisystem used Zora (from "Joe Millionaire"... yes, I watched JM and yes, I knew who she was when I saw the commercial) as their spokesperson who went from a size 10 to a size 6, but now they have some chick who "finally feels comfortable in a bathing suit" because she's a freakin' size 2!!! Are you kidding me!?!? I can see those types of testimonies from people who have lost like 100 lbs or something, but size 2!!!! Those commercials piss me off, partly because I never have been and never will be a size 2 and partly because it's putting in the heads of women that a 10 is fat and they have to be a size 2 in order to feel "comfortable"! Geez!

Big shocker that I know who Zora is too, right - ha :) I haven't seen that commercial, but do agree that America is thin-obsessed. I'm 5' 2'' and a healthy weight and I'm not even a size 2!! I'm not sure who would be that isn't super skinny-minny!!

I wish! I was a 10 at one point, but not now! :) Hopefully I will be again soon though.

Correction... Zora went from a size 10 to a size 4.

I noticed that Nutrisystem commercial too and thought... THAT'S THE BEFORE PICTURE?!! I, too, at my tiniest, was never a size 2.. and I'm 5 feet tall and was pretty tiny for awhile. No normal-height person should ever strive to be a size 2.

My littlest sister is a size 0. It makes me ill. But she is not skin and bones. I think those people just have no hips. Carly has a boy figure, which did not come from my mom's side.

I agree. I'm related to the size 2 though so I get a constant reminder of what a size 2 looks like in a bathing suit.

Oh well...I'd be happy to be a size 10!
