Any process by which one achieves a svelte person. This can be working out, dieting, or other (though not plastic surgery), but it is not simply 'weight loss' or 'getting in shape'. It is shaping your physique in a highly conscious way with a beauty ideal that is more interested in balance and harmony than the extremes of crossfit or bodybuilding.
