Body Image

The University of Florida recently conducted a study that concluded that most people who exercise at least twice a week for 30 minutes each session have a positive body image of themselves.  I think this is truly great news and motivates people to eat healthier and exercise more.  While most experts say that you need at least 30 minutes of exercise 5 days per week most people don't get this amount of exercise.  Since about 70% of Americans are overweight I feel more people have to eat healthy and exercise.  I know so many people who join a gym after the New Year and go religiously for about 3 weeks only to quit and go back to their old ways for the remainder of the year.  The University of Florida study also stated that people who don't exercise and eat a lot have very negative body images which makes sense.  I truly don't understand how people with poor body images of themselves don't work out and eat healthy in order to change their attitude about their bodies.  What do you think some of these reasons are?
