Hey speaking of Hi5. Anyone been watching the latest episodes lately?

I've noticed that the girls, Kathleen, Kelly and Charlie are ALL putting on weight - the most obviously plump pigeon being Kelly. Nicely rounded that one!

And I am happy with that - that for once, we are not bombarded with images of skinny celebs obsessed with weight loss and there are healthily plump yet good looking role models on TV.
Dunno abt you but I was shocked when I saw RuiEn during the NDP telecast - she was stick-thin! And with all the hoopla/ads abt losing weight in the media, celeb endorsements etc, I wonder what messages are being sent to the girls these days.

Just saw an obviously anorexic girl with her harassed-looking mother at KKH the other day - and wah lau, she was THIN!

So kudos to the girls on Hi5 for being healthily fleshy yet not overweight. And to the people at Dove for the great ads on the real woman's bodies! We need to learn to be comfy in our own skin and not try to look like laundry poles.
