Honey Ross - bit hard on her parents??

Honey said herself that she was a teenager who hated her body. They were trying to help her hate her body less. And I'm sure they didn't tell her to aim for 9 stone. I cannot imagine jane (from what little I know about her) thinking that a woman has to be thin to have a good sense of herself.

Describing her parents approach as toxic (which I think she was basically doing) is a bit harsh. They didn't want to stand back and do nothing when she was unhappy and hated her body.

Great analysis of the FA movement from @CarterBeatsTheDevil and @Loseastonein21years - you have summed up my issues with it really well.

They also don't like using the word 'exercise' but instead call it movement, I don't know why but it really annoys me! But generally a lot of them seem quite scathing about exercise (Honey Ross has made sarcastic captions about 'working on my core').
