I have been there (weight-wise), done that (just being fat, not intentionally though), it is lame.South Beach Stevehttp://www.logmyloss.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2952747416511449684.post-82293507597265568452010-04-22T13:42:02.726-07:002010-04-22T13:42:02.726-07:00Sad indeed.

I also agree that all sympathy is out the window when they complain about not being able to get pregnant or how expensive their drugs are.<br /><br />Currently getting ready for fertility treatments, I worked my a$$ off (literally) to get down to a weight that would enhance my chances of success, this was far more important to me than the fleeting feel good feeling of a good meal.<br /><br />Obesity sucks, it is a drain on resources. I don't think we can tell anyone what to do with their bodies, if they want to be fat so be it, but I do think that they lose the right to bitch about expenses or prejudice when they are *trying* to be this way. It also upsets me because those of us trying to be healthy get lumped in with these crazies.<br /><br />You are far kinder than I am, I just want to smack them and say wake up. One quote really resonated “I’ve been eating so much the past week, my body feels stuffed … like some sort of overstuffed teddy bear. Just moving around, I feel like I’m softer, bigger, less responsive. … I’m really quite enjoying the feeling.” How very sad to want to be less responsive...<br /><br />Sorry this is such a long response but it got me riled up :PAlisonhttp://waistingduxie.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2952747416511449684.post-32441697523594548992010-04-22T13:14:13.759-07:002010-04-22T13:14:13.759-07:00"What is so unhealthy about being fat?"
..."What is so unhealthy about being fat?"<br /><br />Erm. Heart disease. Diabetes. Kidney failure. Stroke. List goes on and on and on.<br /><br />Are these people living in a hole? Probably. That, or they don't want to take the hard road to fix their problems so they go down the destructive path. But, you know, there will always be people out there like that. I believe they are in the minority though, because most of us want to live long enough to see our kids grow up and be able to play with them instead of keeling over after 2 seconds of running. <br /><br />I don't know how I feel about enablers, because at some point, I feel like everything in the world can be your enabler (for good or bad) and it's up to the person to choose the road they want to take. So mostly, I blame the person. <br /><br />It's really sad to see this but like us weight losers trying to get healthy, it's out of desperation. We want to live, they don't. That's the difference.Jesshttp://www.halfofjess.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2952747416511449684.post-13324565074200767732010-04-22T08:26:06.359-07:002010-04-22T08:26:06.359-07:00This made me nauseous!

UGH! <br /><br />I don't understand how someone can WANT to become dangerously overweight. <br /><br />Sure, you can carry extra weight and be healthy, but eventually that extra weight will become a detriment won't it? <br /><br />ICK! ICK! ICK!<br /><br />You're kinder and more compassionate than I am. It is sad but I just want to yell at them and smack them into some sense!Emhttp://unearthingem.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2952747416511449684.post-21414592104719215232010-04-22T06:10:24.369-07:002010-04-22T06:10:24.369-07:00Ugh, Beej, I'm totally with you on the gainer ...Ugh, Beej, I'm totally with you on the gainer phenom - it's sad, and perhaps, maybe not too far from a mental illness or disorder, I think. Those who enable this I find plain creepy -- that comment from someone saying they would love to be a "feeder someday"....too awful. <br /><br />I'll pledge .25 for your spilling hope campaign.
