EAT THIS EATING DISORDER

As a St. John’s student and a member in a society that is infatuated with weight and appearances I quite often come across people with eating disorders and obsessions to be “perfect”. Quite recently I have attended “eat this eating disorder”, a presentation held at St. John’s and I have learned about the hazardous and injurious behaviors that take place. At first I firmly believed women place an enormous amount of stress of the image their body presents. However, I came to know everyone goes to certain lengths to mold themselves into an ideal image. I disagreed and agreed with much of what was said and I have come to provide certain steps that will help you lose weight and be a better person. While achieving your health goals it is important to be a positive and strong individual. Surround yourself with all the positive things in life and eliminate the negative things in your life and begin to better you. The first step in your process is laughter, it makes you positive and you even lose weight when you laugh. Happiness stretches your mind and body as it rejuvenates what is inside of you. Listening to happy music, reading a good book, and watching funny movies can brighten your whole outlook and do wonders for your self esteem and introduce you to ideas and habits. Most individuals think this is comical but having more safe sex is actually good for you because it supports weight loss and able you to release stress and make you happy. For those that do not prefer to indulge in safe sexual activity could throw a party, take a vacation, and isolate yourself from electronic devices and work. Just relax and have a day for yourself one time and indulge yourself in something flavorsome.
