Congratulations to Tiffabee on the one month birthday of her great blog, Eat A Cheeseburger (www.tiffabee.wordpress.com). She is all about de-constructing the myths behind the thin ideal and challenging our society’s notions of beauty as it relates to our bodies. Not only is she keeping an eye on the media, she has created her “Cheeseburger Rules,” to help us to stay sane in a thin-obsessed world.

Here are The Cheeseburger Rules (check The Complete Set of Cheeseburger Rules for the details):

  1. Eat this AND that
  2. Just Because the Magazine Said So, Doesn’t Make it True
  3. If you see a girl whose size 00 jeans are baggy, tell her to eat a cheeseburger
  4. Coffee and Salad is NOT a Meal
  5. When you go out to eat with your bff, order your own meal
  6. Throw Your Scale Out the Window
  7. Size Ain’t Nothing But a Number
