Buy fashion magazines.
Even if you just want to look at the hair styles.
It's a terrible reinforcement of a low self esteem.
However, I do appreciate vanity for it's distracting qualities.
Who has time to think about the real stuff when you have to diet, work out, make up and dress up?
It's even better if you have a negative body image, because then you get to obsess, which is even more distracting.
And hey, in the long run you may look a little gaunt, but at least you can sleep at night and maintain a partial sense of accomplishment.
So bring on the carrot sticks, but I ain't givin up my booze. No way, no how.
