That’s what Dr. Oz said, and I’m sticking to it. No, I don’t think it’s healthy.

Not everyone is celebrating Sports Illustrated’s decision to put plus-size model Ashley Graham on one of its three swimsuit issue covers this year.
Graham, along with model Hailey Clauson and Ronda Rousey, were featured on three different covers of the annual swimsuit edition -allowing customers to choose which bathing beauty they wanted. While we think all of the women involved this year are absolutely stunning, we are backing the lovely Bojana Krsmanovic to win Rookie of the Year 2016, although the competition is stiffer than ever before. You’ll never be an editorial model.
James Macari/Sports Illustrated Tiegs doesn’t want “full-figured” women, like Graham, to be promoted.
And plus-sized models everywhere, actually.
“I’ve always been told plus-size starts at a size-eight and it goes up to a size-16…”, she said. Ashley said that in America sizing has gotten frightening with the clothing manufacturers rolling out not only a size zero but a double zero size.

Ashley confessed to Ellen that her confidence came once she embraced her curves, watch the full interview below. She went on to state both ends of the weight from too thin to obese are not healthy. “It’s really showing that women of all shapes and sizes and hopefully races now can be on the cover of Sports Illustrated”. Graham has stated repeatedly that she isn’t a promoter of obesity or anorexia.
