O HEALTH REASONS I think a fair amount of people are genuinely concerned with their health, especially considering how often the media repeats that fat is intrinsically unhealthy, but if it was really only health reasons rather than a shallow (but understandable) desire to comply with society's demands that a woman be teh secks at all times otherwise her sole purpose as a human is null and void ... well, then people would be paying attention to nutrition information aside from calorie counts. Oddly you never see women looking at food packaging and saying "I've totally exceeded my recommended daily allowance for fibre today, I am so bad". I WONDER WHY.
