I read an interesting article the other day which cited a study that was done asking the very same question. It turns out, most women wouldn't trade anything.
Another survey from Glamour found,
"Only 5 percent said they would be willing to give up five years of their lives, and three-quarters refused to give up dessert to be thinner forever. Fewer than half (41 percent) would pay $3,000 to be thin. Almost a quarter said they would not give up anything at all to slim down permanently."
This is contrary to what we know about women, which is why I find it fascinating. If we are willing to trade anyhing significant, when push comes to shove, then we should own it. Then we wouldn't feel so awful about our body image. We would accept that it is our choice.
