Mariah's 3-Dress-Size Drop
With the teeny-tiny outfits Mariah has been rockin' lately, it's pretty hard not to notice how much weight the diva has lost. But don't think that her drop from a size 8 to a size 2 was easy. Mimi not only works out all the time, she only eats "morsels" of her favorite food and tries to stay in the 1000-1500 calorie a day realm. Is it bad that most American's can clear that in one meal without blinking? Perhaps she can bottle that willpower and share it with the rest of the country.

How sad!! Another message to young girls everywhere that even wearing a size 8 is too big -- do whatever you have to do to get into a size 2. When are the media going to stop sending these destructive messages?? Agreed--we shouldn't clear 1000-1500 calories in one meal, but not every one should be a size 2. Our children and young adults should not have this kind of pressure about weight. Yes, exercise and a healthy diet are essential - eating morsels and working out all the time are not.

The World Health Organization defines such a low caloric intake as semi-starvation. This is not behavior we should aspire to, nor should TV Guide present it as such ("bottle that willpower and share it").
