If you’re not familiar with the show “Revenge Body with Khloe Kardashian,” it’s a show on the E! Network, in which Khloe Kardashian coaches recently dumped individuals, hoping to get back in shape, in order to get back at an ex. According to Khloe, looking good is the best revenge. But I have my own thoughts about revenge (like, should it happen at all?) and the delicate relationship that exists between one’s fitness goals and their sense of self-worth. I don’t necessarily think one’s anger towards an ex should muddy the already stormy and challenging waters of trying to be in shape. I think that post-breakup, people should be focusing on loving themselves on not hating the ex. That’s just one of the reasons I disapprove of the revenge body. Here are all the reasons a revenge body is a bad idea.

He’s not looking
First off, it’s highly unlikely your partner is even watching this body transformation that you’re blasting online. A lot of people block their exes after a breakup or at least try not to look at their profiles too often. And even if he is looking, he’s probably missing whatever message you think you’re sending. I highly doubt he’s thinking, “Wow. She sure is showing me.”
