Footnotes on fat (25)

that's my point though.

I appreciate and agree with your theory here. However, this is something that most people who struggle with their weight already know and therefore being told this isn't helpful (not that I'm not appreciative of your input...I'm genuinely not having a go).

This is what I'm saying though. There are so many times where people tell me what I already know and do as if I don't know it and don't do it.

If it really was that simple to lose weight, I don't think there would be as many overweight people. There would still be some but not as many.

thank you xx

does it? fair doos, I'll invest in a thesaurus

But fuck it - I like ME and alright I'm not gorgeous but meh even if I lost weight I still wouldn't be anything special.

I like food. In fact there are certain foods I adore. Yes I have an eating disorder that others mistake for gluttony but I am aware of it and I do my best not to give in to it.

I do things that I find fun. Exercise will never be fun as long as there are people out there that judge and mock.

So I could eat less (boo) & exercise more (boo) and be unhappy just so I can be at best a size 14 or I can eat nice food & read a book or watch a DVD or spend time with my friends and be the size I am and actually very happy in myself.

Guess which one I'm going to choose.

I was fat, in fact I was 22 stone at one point but I lost the weight because I wanted to.... I don't care if people are big or small the only thing that pisses me off is people whinging about wanting to change but doing fuck all about it! Btw that goes as far as myself crying about smoking and not giving up, I've got no sympathy for myself.....

How did rubber ducky get stuck up there?

like button required I can identify with a lot of what you say here in terms of how i expect the "best" i can look forward to is being a size 14.

I love how positive you are that totally rocks man, I'm totally gonna tune into this vibe on my less optimistic days thanks

can't argue with this really would be like moaning that I've not won the lottery even though I've not got a ticket.

My winging (when it does happen) comes fron wanting to change, doing lots about it and still getting nowhere.

.........................

As a side note, I went from 14st 9lbs to 13st 7lbs earlier this year but I'm currently sitting at about 14st, maybe a bit more. The reason for this is that I was "on a diet" and now that I'm not using diet tablets and reducing my calories my weight is creeping up. I can't be on a diet forever and have to gradually reintroduce more food eventually but when I do that the weight comes back. (if anyone replies to this saying that my body went into starvation mode or that i need to exercise more or that i don't need to eat more i will officially blummin explode grr lol)

Alas this is only repeated often in everyday life, so no suprise just sadened.

Just finished appointment to have half my stomach removed so hopefully I can be as judgemental and unkind once my weight has gone and have suffered enough for society.

Finally one of the herd, wonder what will be picked on next as the most hateful thing to be?.

You asked how I knew our love was true I of course replied, spanking will make you cry ooooooooh.
If you think I said it, ask be right though. my jack russell loves a punch up.

Good luck! That sounds like the op the evil one had, and she was 30 stone!
