YoPlait Commercial.

While watching the womens network also know as Lifetime For Women an interesting commecial came on. The Yoplait commercial. This commercial shows at a glance what is wrong with our society and the pressure that women have for weight. The Yoplait yogurt commecial is a women and she takes all her clothes to a seamstress to be taken in because after eating yogurt she has now lost enough weight to get her clothes taking in. This commercial shows how women are now obsessing over the pressure to be a size six. Now sitting there I thought to myself why couldnt they just simply advertise being a healthy snack. No they had to mention and focus on the fact women lose weight eating Yoplait. It is also intersting how this commerical comes on specific networks that they know women are watching. Chances are if your watching tv all the time and arent getting any exercise that the only weight you will be losing is NONE!. So I think this commerical shows how society is forcing women to believe they need to lose weight and advertising and products are playing on that fact. Although a yoplait yogurt might be a healthier option Idont think it should be the main focus of almost ever women product.

  2. i agree! women need to stop trying to find a way out of working out constantly!
    they spend more time trying to find ways to not to work out than working out!..lol, it's funny. All of these cereal commercials and yougurt commercials, dance videos etc are pathetic and we should be smart enough to know that these foods are not going to just burn our fat, no! you're suppose to make a diet plan with this product and work out! tae bo, running something. but food=calories at the end of the day& work out+diet= weight loss!
