Be skinny for summer!

Read the advert title on Facebook.

The pink patch will help you lose that stubborn stone and be your skinniest. Try it free!

Or, perhaps...now stop me if I'm being too controversial here...but just *perhaps*...if there's only that 'stubborn stone' between you and being 'skinny' you could actually not worry about it and stick with the normal, healthy body of a woman rather than the celebrity endorsed emaciated form of a pre-pubescent girl.

Just a thought.

I abhor those adverts, not only because of the entire sentiment, but because it's clearly such utter, utter nonsense. You may as well stick an Elastoplast to yourself and expect to lose weight because of it.
