Fitness/Self-Image Post

I got my digest from USA Triathlon and found the following article. It's about athletes with body-image issues written by a sports dietician. I found it interesting to imagine athletes who think they have to lose weight. It also discusses why we think we are fat and sums up a lot of my thoughts a lot better than I can.

Mostly I'm still bemused over people who are probably quite healthy and inside their BMI, but who are unhappy with their weight. Just reinforces that happiness comes from inside, not outside, and weight-loss is not the magic stroke that creates self-confidence or feelings of security.
