Yoplait Yogurt had a commercial out that was surprisingly very insensitive to woman and weight. It almost screams EATING DISORDER. It was eventually banned, you can check it out by clicking the link above. so what do you do or can you do in these situations. Dianne is a member of a watch dog email group organized through the National Eating Disorder Association that alerts followers to potential threats targeted to individuals dealing with eating disorders.Then you can then email and fill the mail box of the perpetrators.  Keep your eyes out for potential media that causes the twisted perception that woman should be stick thin. Do your part. Another thing to keep in mind is to watch your own comments. Just be aware that many people suffer with poor body self esteem. Don't contribute. There's enough junk out there anyways.

Check out another yoplait yogurt commercial promoting thinness.  This clip was also banned.
