Overweight and obesity: double standards?
The world is changing and what is valid for some is not necessarily valid for others. Once this rule is accepted, it is clear that light spots oriented towards mediatized personalities project an aura of all power, even when it comes to superfluous, installed or morbid kilos.
The wonderful world of stars
In this world that makes you dream, everything is a pretext to sublimate, ignite, seduce, give to fantasize. The Kardashian family is an example(1). One only has to see how, in the space of a few years, mother, sisters, daughters embellish themselves. On the internet the “before / after” demonstrate this.
Rumor has it that Khloé is not a “real” Kardashian. But that is not the debate. It is rather a question of realizing, understanding and admitting that in “the world of stars” everything is “reversible”. Thus, no matter, the excesses, the hygiene of life, the evenings to extend, the difficult mornings, the kilos lost then resumed … In the space of a few hours, days, weeks, the balance is restored and a new life, even more wonderful, follows.
In return, an edifying testimony
Losing excess pounds was the goal of 20-year-old Lisa(2). Four years later, she weighs 90 kg less. Her dream comes true, but for all that, she is not completely satisfied. Indeed, for her, no daily support from a team that advises you, coaches you, lifts you, retouches you, planes you ..
This Australian was one victim among many. Victim of junk food, bad information, deviant advertising and perverse consumption patterns. But the damage is done: she ends up with a flabby, hanging andunsightlyskin after the melting of her kilos.
The surgery has a cost of $ 30,000 (about € 26,000) and it therefore uses crowdfunding. Today, she raised $3,000. The game is not won yet!
A lesson to be learned
The world of fashion, show, rich families, glitter, easy money is mesmerizing. Sometimes it seems accessible through social networks and the proximity they create between personalities and their fans: Kate gets tattooed? Long live tattooing. A tennis match is won? The winner’s shorts are acclaimed. The pomp, the good life, sometimes also the arrogant, misplaced, ego-oversized behaviors have become the benchmarks of a society that does not know where to go. We eat, drink, get drunk, get drunk, in short we forget ourselves!
However, nothing is erased, everything accumulatesand is paid.
Deprivation, management of excesses, self-control and common sense must be our daily lot, but not that of celebrities for whom everything is much easier.
Admittedly, in France, bariatric surgery and its consequences can be covered for those who reach a morbid stage of BMI ( Body Mass Index, take the test on our site). For others, who are overweight, you have to fight head on,eat a balanced diet and stay hydrated , do daily physical activity and think positive.
Learn to love yourself, not through models or clichés, but for yourself.
The good news? The current climate days, which are taking place in Paris at the beginning of June 2015, highlight an established fact: man can no longer ignore the state of emergency in which the planet is engulfed. All countries are asked to take into account the excesses in which they are lost. Thus, the “trend” is moving towards more simplicity, renunciation even on a mode of food consumption.
