But looking good naked? Yikes! For those of us whose name is not Gisele Bundchen, we feel like turning off the lights, closing the drapes and throwing towels over our bedroom mirrors when we are sans clothing.<\/p>\n<p>But leave it to Oprah Winfrey and famed stylist Carson Kressley, one of the Fab Fives from the television show \u201cQueer Eye for the Straight Guy,\u201d to save us from our naked misery. Friday on Oprah, the show is reaired an episode on how to look good naked.<\/p>\n<p>Kressley does NOT suggest that you starve yourself on  a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diets\/3-Day_Solution_Plan\/\" title=\"3-day diet\" target=\"_blank\">3-day crash diet<\/a> or wear the piece of spandex cinched around your waist to make your middle look smaller. Instead, he focuses on the crux of our incalculable fear in being bare: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diets\/TLC%27s_I_Can_Make_You_Thin\/\" title=\"self esteem\" target=\"_blank\">Self-Esteem<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>With some very creative and heartfelt ways of communicating with these women, he tries to show us that all the self-berating we inflict upon ourselves, is just that: a harmful dialogue that exists in our heads and in our heads only. In fact, when it comes down to it, more often than not, we see ourselves much heavier than what we really are.<\/p>\n<p><object width=\"425\" height=\"355\"><param name=\"movie\" value=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/v\/HGSxqbgI9h0&#038;hl=en\"><\/param><param name=\"wmode\" value=\"transparent\"><\/param><embed src=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/v\/HGSxqbgI9h0&#038;hl=en\" type=\"application\/x-shockwave-flash\" wmode=\"transparent\" width=\"425\" height=\"355\"><\/embed><\/object><\/p>\n<p>You\u2019ll have to turn into Oprah on Friday to see how he accomplishes this factual and illuminating reality.  One of the lines that I love from this show is \u201cYou don\u2019t have to be perfect to be pretty.\u201d Isn\u2019t that true?  If you have ever dealt with a weight issue or body image problem, watch this episode. It\u2019s 60 minutes of television that has the capacity to really change how you see yourself.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Many of us can don our favorite pair of jeans or even our bathing suits and feel pretty confident with how we look.
