If you could lose weight through crazy, illogical means, would you do it? Would you shave your head? Would you get your nipples pierced? Would you date Carrot Top? Would you live on only lemonade (oh wait)? Check out these numbers: 85% of women would happily take an extra toe if it meant they could skip the gym. Clearly, they are not thinking about the miserable time they're going to have, trying to find shoes with their mutant feet. And 23% would happily spend a week in jail rather than just eating less and moving more? THE FUCK!?!

How about you? Would you suffer an extra digit? 

The comments suspect that Anne reached her lowest weight ever when they chopped off her head.

I'll stick with eating healthy and exercising, thank you very much! Although shaving my head wouldn't be too bad ...

Honestly? I would do it, too. I would happily take an extra toe if it meant no more weight anxieties, no more hatred of exercise, no more well-meaning comments from my mom, and no more f*cking diet angst.

I've always had a hard time finding shoes anyway (size 11 feet), so no diff there. Also--I've seen a woman with 6 toes, and she was wearing *sandals*, which seemed kinda cool and gutsy to me.

I might just take the extra toe anyway, regardless. It would certainly be a conversation starter! And I would DEFINITELY wear sandals.
As far as my diet/body hangups, I'm dealing with those on my own, without any extra appendages.

Extra toe? No thanks. I might go for a week in jail depending on how the jail sounded; I've always been curious about that anyway.

Not that I want to give up eating healthy and exercising, but I'd love being guaranteed not to gain whenever I stop paying attention for a frickin minute. Staying my fighting weight is not a matter of "just eating less and moving more" for me; it requires a good bit of vigilance and can feel impossible in times of stress.

I would definitely take the extra toe. I think that's kind of cool. I would definitely shave my head, I've always wanted to anyway. But spend a week in jail? Or take time off of my life? Hell naw! You gotta be crazy. The point is to be happier. I think I'd be too traumatized by the whole jail experience and dying early is defeating the purpouse.

I just love the Princess Bride reference in this post!
