你生活的環境，包括盤子的大小和顏色以及你在餐廳坐的位置，都會影響你的進食量。而用一些瘦身的人作為勵志偶像，看纖細的藝術品也有助減肥。這種勵志瘦身減肥的行為就是“勵瘦”。而過度的“勵瘦”則對健康有危害

Pro-ana sites often feature thinspiration (or thinspo): images or video montages of slim women, often celebrities, who may be anything from naturally slim to emaciated with visibly protruding bones.

贊成厭食的網站上經常有“勵瘦”的圖片和視頻，這些圖片和視訊短片的主角都是些苗條的女性，經常是明星，她們或者身材苗條自然，或者瘦骨嶙峋，骨頭凸起。“鎖骨放硬幣”、“反手摸肚臍”、“A4腰”……這些評判身材好的“新標準”都是鼓勵年輕人過度節食的壞榜樣。

Body image and wellbeing expert Katie Lowe said: 'The bikini bridge is just another example of horrendous thinspiration that encourages young women to develop poor body image and self-esteem.

身體形象及健康專家卡蒂•洛維說：“比基尼橋是恐怖的‘勵瘦’的另一例證，對年輕女性的身形和自尊都有負面影響。”

Thinspiration is potentially harmful to users who suffer from disordered eating.

勵瘦對那些飽受進食障礙折磨的人而言有潛在危害。

Instagram banned #thinspiration and #thinspo posts in April 2012 but permitted them again in October of the following year before appearing to reinstate the ban in 2014.

2012年4月，Instagram禁止帶有#thinspiration和#thinspo標籤的帖子，但隨後一年的10月這種帖子又可以被發佈了，2014年該禁令再次回歸。
