Don't link weight or body size to how happy you are. Learn about normal genetic differences in body shape and weight. Be an example to others by taking people seriously for what they say, feel and do rather than for how they look. Watch for messages you may get from the media that promote thinness. Cultivate interests, skills and hobbies that do not emphasize appearance.
