This postcard from PostSecret made me want to scream, “Tell her!” An emailed response was far more powerful, however:

I am so fat and I did tell Jenny I have a crush on her and she did fall for me. And I didn’t even send that secret in. Crazy.
What are you avoiding because you consider yourself too fat? Is it a swimming suit? A trip to the beach? A new job? A beautiful relationship?
Don’t put your life on hold because of the shape of your body. Life is too short to hide your feelings for someone you love. Life is too short to wait until you have the perfect body. Live the life you want now.

I think this advice is the number one way to eliminate any unconcious drive to continue unhealthy eating patterns.
