I do understand your point, Rudey. However, according to the article, the size range was 4-12. 12 is NOT obese. 12 is chunky probably for most women under 6 feet, but NOT obese (Unless you are 5 feet tall). 12 is not even plus-sized. So I think it's a bit extreme for people to say they're promoting an unhealthy lifestyle or the other end of the spectrum. The other end would be a 300 pound woman.
