You Don’t Need to Be a Size 4 to Be Fit

The average dress size for the American woman is a 14. Sports Illustrated recently put a full-figured woman on the cover of its swimsuit issue. Oprah is promoting weight loss. It’s not about promoting a size. Fitness is about promoting health, and that’s different for everyone because we are individuals. Fitness is about understanding real people’s health concerns and encouraging them to set their own size goals. Plain and simple, some women will never be a size 2, and many don’t want to be.
