I respectfully disagree with some of the statements you haveposted here.

I like changing my body. I like working on the look and the internal process. I like to lift weights. I LOVE the changes it has made to my body. Not that I was unhappy with my body before - but if I have the power to change the look, for the fun of it, why not? I love the look of a sleek, athletic cut body. I also like how healthy I am because of it. I like learning about my body and how it responds to different nutrient ratios and exercises.

Not everyone who exercises or diets is obsessive or influenced by the media. There are many internally driven good reasons to change the way you look.

I think you are making huge generalizations about people and their bodies.
