[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Society (and a lot of parents) start shaming young women for putting on the extra fat that naturally comes with puberty. The media reinforces. It’s an ingrained self-loathing that’s hard to shake.[/quote] I lost weight in puberty as do many women, so I have no idea what the heck “naturally” you are talking about.[/quote] Really, you have no idea? Here’s what John’s Hopkins (and every other scientific resource) has to say: “Girls tend to have an increase in body fat mass as they go through adolescence whereas boys tend to have increase in muscle mass.” This is why girls who starve themselves or exercise excessively stop getting their periods. The body needs a certain amount of fat to function properly.[/quote]
