Your Bod

Why "the perfect bod" doesn't exist

 

What do you think of when you hear the words "the perfect body"? A Kate Upton bikini bod....no, Kendall Jenner's super thin model figure...no, J-Lo's killer curves....it never stops. These days, the media has tons of definitions of "perfect"—and they're all so different (and rarely achievable).

What's even worse? Some people seem to feel that the internet has given them the power to make judgments about the bodies of others, and comments can get really nasty. That's why blogger Cassey Ho of Blogilates.com decided to make a video detailing her own experience with body shaming and impossible standards. She set out to give herself the "perfect" body...and what happened might surprise you. Check it out below:
