On Thursday, February 25th in the Trabant multi-purpose rooms, Whitney Thompson, the cycle 10 winner of America's Next Top Model, shared the following statistic: "More young girls are afraid of being fat than they are of nuclear war, cancer and their parents dying." This is just as true as it is shocking. Thompson's claim to fame is the celebrity status she gained as the first plus-size winner of the popular reality show. However, the message she relays to crowded rooms as a spokeswoman is much more important than her strut down the catwalk. "Healthy is beautiful," is the philosophy that Thompson both lives by and hopes to ingrain in the minds of impressionable young girls. Thompson is not an advocate for "being fat," nor does she insist that there is only one way to live a healthy lifestyle. Quite simply, she wants to change the diluted perception that anyone can attain the "perfect" bodily proportions of the women who fill the pages of fashion magazines. "No one looks like that," explained Whitney. Recently, Victoria's Secret released their "Swim 2010" catalog. In the past, the company has been known to feature models with reasonably realistic feminine bodies. However, the model used for the cover of this particular catalog was so prepubescent looking that her picture has circulated in child pornography. As a result of this single photograph, Thompson says, "I will never wear Victoria's Secret ever again." Though she claims to like their clothing, Thompson recognizes that the only way to change the fashion industry is to stop endorsing products that perpetuate the idea that a size 6 is "plus size." During the week of February 21st, National Eating Disorder Awareness Week (NEDAW), NEDAC, the University of Delaware's National Eating Disorder Awareness club, sponsored several events to teach students about the gravity of this issue and to promote positive body image. If you or someone you know is struggling with an eating disorder, HELP IS AVAILABLE. Contact the Wellspring Student Wellness Program at (302)-831-3457. And, always remember that healthy is indeed beautiful.  Whitney, with our Executive Editorial Assistant, Samantha Antopol Image: Leah Sininsky & Samantha Antopol, thanks to Kayla Mantegazza
