It's a lovely video, and I'm glad to see this issue raised. I struggle with banishing fat talk in my own life.
I don't want to be hypercritical of a good effort, but... but... why do none of "these girls" seem to be fat? I really wish there had been a little more size diversity in the faces. It's not just average-size women who need the fat talk ended.

Excellent comment - I completely agree with you! That seems to be the case with a lot of the body image messaging! Here is a link to more information, including an Image Gallery and Guidelines for the Portrayal of Overweight and Obese Persons in the Media.
