This year I don’t have a resolution. I have a non-resolution. My New Year’s Resolution is to not have a resolution to lose weight, diet, or drop a pant size. I see it every year — women vowing to lose belly fat, to stop eating chocolate, to detox diet. And companies notice it, too, and they ...

It causes people to compare their bodies to something that doesn’t exist. Fortunately, there may soon be a tool that shows us just how fake photoshopped pictures are. This tool would tell ...

We all know about America’s weight problem. But a new study shows that US men and women are now about 20 pounds heavier than they were two decades ago. They are also farther away from their “ideal weight.” Most sources covering this study look at it from a health angle. Yes, weight gain is unhealthy, ...

Thin women have a harder time conceiving than overweight women, according to a new study. A healthy woman has a one in two chance of having a baby, and an overweight woman has only slightly lower chances. Underweight women, however, only have a one in three chance.

No one will sleep with me if I’m fat. I’m sure that’s correct, because I’ve rarely seen a fat person engaged in an act of passion on a dating website advertisement. Or anywhere. Ah, but it isn’t true. According to expert advice, confidence counts for much more than perfection. In a clear reminder that men ...

Unfortunately, a great number of women are pigging out in public and starving in private. Just like anorexics and momorexics, ...
