Whilst I fully understand the concern over Christie's views, (and I admit I was a little taken aback too), I dont think comments like Quote:

I can't possibly describe how fucking idiotic this is. Crystal is different - she doesn't have to diet to we the weight she is. If you do, then I really think there's something wrong. From what I've seen of you you look pretty skinny at your current weight - if you lost another 3 stone you would be ill. | Quote:

I'm really fighting the urge to be very very insulting here, but I think you (and your mates by the sounds of it) have some serious issues with body image. | are of any help if you're seriously wanting the girl to re-think her ideas on body image or weight loss. I'm not having a go, I think the rest of the posts are fairly spot on, I'm just of the opinion that there may have been a less aggressive (for want of a better description) way to get your point across.
