I love that you write about body image and it’s ever-present impact on most women. Sadly, it’s nothing new- I was in college more than 40 years ago when cigarettes, coffee, cocaine, and various forms of speed were used to curb the appetite to stay thin. “Nice” girls in the “top” sororities did lots of coke.
I’m not surprised that some moms encourage the prescription weight loss solutions, seeing it as safer than some alternatives that they may have used when on their own quest to be accepted into a looks-focused group.
