If magazines make you feel insecure...

You should check out the following link for examples of before and after pictures. It's remarkable to see what gets airbrushed away...knobby knees, visible pores, wrinkles, belly curves, folds of skin in armpits...and how healthy, normal weight individuals have their size and shape adjusted. If you've ever felt badly about yourself after browsing through a magazine, it might be reassuring to realize that NOONE looks like that, not even the models in the photographs! Is it any wonder that so many women feel unable to measure up to these standards of beauty?
Go to this link, click portfolio, click agree, then view before/after pictures.
