Watch your back...they're tagging fat people.

MM is a bad influence on me, I created another blog. Just my mussings about the fact that I AM genetically fat. Read if you want, I just need a place to discuss the way others perceive and treat fat people. Now don't think I'm against losing weight, it is about being healthy. I just stand in awe at the way we're treated period. Despite losing a person, I am still FAT and judged as FAT, no matter how active I am or well I eat.

I'm fat...and lazy...and as we know we lie...so reasearchers can't believe us when we report our diet and exercise they need to tag us like animals. Nice.

Fingers crossed this tagging leads them to realize some people are obese despite diet and exercise, just like we all know the skinny person who can down 2 Big Macs, etc, and not gain an ounce...there is more to it.

It's been awhile but there used to be posts on here about putting rolls of quarters in your bra and pockets to weigh more.

I remember years ago I went to a counselor at school, he knew me through organizations I was in also, but I was having a hard time with classes and life and was trying to lose weight and he asked frankly what I ate...and I told him a chicken breast and a 1/2 can of corn and 1/2 can of green beans...he then replied...so 3 chicken breasts and veggies...I as like uh no 1 and he goes addicts lie so we times by 3! I was like look if I didn't want to be honest I wouldn't BE HERE trying to get help.

Sarah, that's just horrible!

once upon a time I had a group to talk about Binge Eating Disorder, and later one about Clean Eating.

PM me if you are interested in either of these.

i've accepted the fact that naturally "skinny" people will never know the struggle of weight loss. in their minds, we're all just fat and lazy people who sit around with a feed bag strapped around out necks. so i quit trying to make them understand. now...they can just suck on it. the end.
