Who are you to say that our values are off? If I was offered 1 Million dollars I would no doubt take the money and hire a trainer. I then could also pay off my bills and have the comfort knowing I will have a place to live in 5 months. Don''t judge what you don''t know.

OMG! Is the media still trying to tell women the most important thing is to look a certain way to attract a man to take care of her! It is important to take care of our health but a nice body does not pay the bills (with work that is legally and morally responsible) and feed the children.

I think the professionals missed the point! If one was rich, one could afford the personal trainers and the personal chefs, as many of the Hollywood elite have access to, hence the reason they all appear fit and eat healthy. After having a personal chef and personal trainer, we would all have the opportunity to look like Jennifer Aniston. It''s not about people not wanting to eat heathier, it''s about knowing how to do that with the knowledge and money the majority have access to (obviously the stars don''t cook so is it really fair to compare the general public to them)?

I think it''s fashion and Hollywood that is off on this "survey". Who says Jennifer Aniston is the picture of health and beauty? She may be at a good weight and size for HER, but not for me or any other woman. I wouldn''t want a body like her. I have boobs and hips and curves and I love it. And frankly, more guys that not love curves on a woman. It''s about being healthy for the person - not the masses. I''m tired of "entertainment" and those paid to entertain America shoving their form of size -2 beauty down our preverbal throats. I would take the money because I am happy in my own skin and that money will help my child a lot more than mommy having "abs". "Abs" and a size 0 butt will not put food on the table and pay for a college education. I think the survey tells us more about the fact that American woman are not that materialistic, but, rather view themselves beautiful at a size 8, 10, 12 or 14 and do not need the shallow approval of having a "body" like Jennifer Aniston. Wake up Hollywood, the media, and fashionistas everywhere!

You don''t have to look like Jennifer Aniston to be "fit" first of all. Second, what does "not particularly underweight" mean? That does not sound fit. Personally, give me the money, and then I can hire a trainer, quit my real job and work out 4 hours a day, which is what these celbs have to do to look so "perfect". Blecch.
