Body Image Interview
 I conducted an interview of healthy women
concerning the own body image perceptions
 In general, these women portrayed reasonable
positive attitudes about their body image.
 There seemed to be a slight tendency to want
to be just a little more in shape
 I believe this is common trend in our society
that no matter how lean or “in shape” you are
it’s as if you’re never fully satisfied
 This mindset can become obsessive in some
people and lead to disordered eating and
obsessive exercise behaviors
Key Elements of Health

about health is that it is continuum of
progress throughout your entire life

improvement, NOT for perfection
