"Goodbye love handles. Hello love."

On many occasions when flipping through the TV channels finding something to watch, I will check the infomercials. Not to see what product to buy. I've never bought anything from TV and I doubt I ever will. I actually watch them to question and laugh at their marketing techniques. Some things that are said or done to try to convince people to buy their product makes me laugh or shake my head. For example: Watching someone struggling to do their house work. We watch them sighing and stressing trying to get it all done. The picture is all dull. Black and white. Until you see them using the new product which is all done in bright colours and happy faces. Or the before and after photos of women who've had their make up done. The before shot is usually them not smiling. Whereas the after shot of them is. You know, stuff like that. Anyway, I was watching some weight loss one. Can't remember what it was but a woman came on who obviously wasn't an actor. She spoke about how it was beneficial and yadda yadda yadda. Then she said something that really irritated me. "Goodbye love handles. Hello love." So basically you need to be fit to find love. I'm sorry but screw that! I believe that if we want to have a healthy body, then do things for that reason. But do we really need to have it in our faces all the time that having a good body means you're more likely to find romance? I don't mind if you agree or disagree with me. I just personally felt that technique was low and superficial. Body shape doesn't determine your love life. YES I know people usually like to have a partner who is healthy and fit yeah yeah I know but it still irritated me the way she said it and how most magazines will tell you that losing weight means finding love.
