Is it just me, or does the way weight loss is shown by celebrities and people alike in the media, REALLY annoy you?
For example, I read a lot of stories on MFP community of normal people loosing A LOT of weight the proper, healthy way and when someone famous does it.. its like OMG its a revolution!
Loosing weight isnt something that people should really be amazed by when it comes to celebrities.. and this is why; they have personal trainers, they have nutritionists, they don't have jobs with awkward hours which stop them from working out.
Yes its amazing when people transform their bodies but I think the way the media portrays it is really frustrating as there is so many of us trying to tone up, loose weight, eat healthy, train hard.. and it takes a lot more than their 'follow this healthy diet plan' or 'follow this routine of lunges and reps' to actually look they way they look!
I just feel it can be very misleading.
Rant over!
