I love it!!! I especially like the acknowledgement that presumably positive comments are actually reinforcing the problem. I H.A.T.E. when people say to me, "You look great! Have you lost weight?"

I have a friend who always greets me with "Hello Beautiful" no matter how I look, because she's commenting on me as her friend, not on my level of attractiveness.

I never comment on a woman's weight unless she brings it up. Even then, I don't mention how she looks. I ask her how she feels physically with the relief of weight loss.
