In Fat Rant 3, a follow up to the original Fat Rant, Joy gives ways to respond to hurtful comments by turning the tables using truth and humor while enlightening ignorant people – making them think twice about the dumb things they say!

Whether it is winning America’s Next Top Model, or being the runner up for Miss England, plus models are taking the world by storm. Is this the backlash on how unhealthily skinny, straight size models have become?

Every day we’re overwhelmed by images of what the advertising world thinks is the womanly ideal—someone who’s forever young, bone thin, and ready to change the way she looks with plastic surgery even if she’s gorgeous just the way she is.
We’d love to have your opinion on the impact of the media on women in today’s world. Let us know what you think by commenting on this post.
