32 Inch Waist
Well ain't this a revolting developement? Dr. Oz says that for a woman to be considered healthy, she needs to have a 32 inch waist!
All of my labs are normal and I've lost a ton of weight and am working on getting my PCOS under control...but I ain't got no 32 inch waist!!!
Does this mean I'm not healthy? And just how does one acquire this elusive 32 inch waist when you are seriously apple shaped? I think I would have to be dead for six months to get a 32 inch waist!
Yikes,
Mary
It's called become a VEGAN!!haha I swear those people are the thinnest ever. Too bad I sucked at it, because they are skinnnny!!
I think that's just nuts. A 32 inch waist, especially after having kids is so hard for a woman. Pffft on Oz on this one. How wonder everyone is so over weight. The expectations are so high we all say F*&k it and enjoy eating and get nice and fat!


I know what you mean. When I was thin, I wasn't fat, but now that they've changed the BMI, I would have been considered overweight. Now that's fuzzee math if I've ever heard it!

I do draw the line at fur - I don't wear it 'cuz I love furry animals (but I admit to wearing it in the past - when I was fat no less - can you imagine what I looked like at 300 pounds in a big poofy full length fur coat - in HOUSTON, TX?! ) GOOD LORD, what was I thinking?!
Now I don't want to hurt your feelings SisterFriend, but that image of you in a fur at three hundred pounds just scares the hell outta me!!! What did you do with that fur, make a king sized bedspread out of it?

I have some cute plastic flip flops.
No hurt feelings...TG I finally realized how hideous I looked. I think I actually realized it wasn't a good look before I got close to 300 pounds but I still looked like a big, giant overstuffed bear.
I gave it away to a friend of my mom. She loved it and wore it until she outgrew it. Maybe it's her bedspread now.

I just measured my waist and it's 30"....bigger than it was (but tighter) prior to my LBL.

And another thing,



Apparently, I can't win for losing!
