| BBW...Why is it so hard to be full figured?? Posted: 9/23/2009 11:25:11 AM |
She and Elvis---or his ghost--left the building simultaneously sometime in 2004. Ahhh but what a great year for posting huh? Some things are never too old or too boring for someone to leave them alone to die a slow death. Augh you tricked me in here didn't you? Sort of following you around to see what you'll say next. Or whether you are speaking of me in the most hideous terms called Code Red >>> That must be the meaning of trolling,
You and the blonde bombshell problaby in on the heist together I am still getting over girls gone wild! and here you come up with "squirting" Last place I looked that was in a dirty magazine. (See I told you times was changing!) Yes Formums quite entertaining. Way better than TV. (If you've got the right host)
Surprised to see you flirting so early after your marriage to lady Mrs Biz. or whatever the handle. Something about exchanging vows w/o the ring. Jealousy Almost toke over but I contained myself. congrats you are a forum favorite (code word forum hoer or in your case gigalo)Very Anyways Very captivating sometimes hard to read We are in the wrong part of the bldg, I can just feel, the {blondegirl] says he's a man, I don't understand! You want to know what I did in 2004?? Hard for me to remember , Probably not a lot just working and slaving and putting food on the table. But I don't talk here. Well, private that way. Always taught my business, Not everybody's business, I won't give it away. Something else so ingrained. It's small world. I am sure you will know me someday. (Hopefully not on the evening news, unless its the winning lottery)... Back to post before we get kick off (even though it's been over for yrs ???) You think OP is hot? You like big women (probably a size 3 by now) or do you love her "squirting power". Thats right, I put squirting and gulped in the same sentence. I have to catch up with Elvis!!! Sinlov has left the bldg. Ha Ha Ha Nice talking to you Red. | |

| BBW...Why is it so hard to be full figured?? Posted: 9/23/2009 12:37:06 PM | I did not read all 14-15-whatever pages of comments so I appologise if this has been mentioned before, but I really get tired of the first comment when someone mentions they are over 90 pounds is to say "Well start exercising & watch your diet!" Thank you Jenny Craig! Now if I can borrow your soap box please?
Seriously, I am one of those people who think (to steal the popular phrasing) full figured people, both male & female, look better than twigs. I don't like hugging a person & being afraid of getting stabbed by a misplaced collarbone, or being afraid of thier ribcage imploding. I don't like looking at someone & thinking they've just come from back from a vacation with the Donner party. Just not me. And for the record, I eat one, usually small meal a day, a sandwhich & bowl of soup, or a plate of goulash, I walk all the time & I am constantly swimming. I don't have a thyroid condition & my metabolism is normal. I drink water & tea, on rare occasions I will have a single can of soda. That equates to about once every 3-4 months. On holidays & my birthday I do splurge a bit more. I am not nor care to be a size 2. I hapen to think there's nothing wrong with that. Tell me to go to the gym & I'll tell you where you can put the membership card. So on that note, can we try something a little more inventive?
And unless you're just wanting a one night stand or bit of fun, take it from someone who IS bi, women are just as much a pain in the rear as men are. If not more so at times. There are pros & cons to both & it's mostly on an indiviual basis. If all your looking for from another female is a sexual fantasy then please, ignore the above. | |

| BBW...Why is it so hard to be full figured?? Posted: 9/23/2009 12:50:27 PM | LOL, wanna hear something funny? I've been fighting this weight for forever, the damn Seroquel put a ton on me, gave me diabetes, and I lost most of it, but I still have a lot to go. I had to go into the hospital Friday night, I was in DKA pretty severely, and was weak as water. Turns out I HAVE A SEVERE THYROID CONDITION TO BOOT!!! So, it seems I have a lovely goiter in my thyroid, and the reason this weight hasn't been coming off is because of that nice lump in my thyroid. Got it tested and everything, it is benign, thank God, but I'm on a nice big dose of synthroid now, and hopefully it will change some of my weight issues. Now if I could only get my blood sugar regulated, get over the Shingles that started in June, get the potassium up and sodium right, I might feel worth a damn. LOL
If it's not one thing, it's another! But anyway, I'm still tired from everything, so I'm gonna sprawl my fat butt on the couch and take a nap!
Love to all the big girls and guys! Beth | |

| BBW...Why is it so hard to be full figured?? Posted: 9/23/2009 1:28:59 PM | | Screw other ppl- be who you are. Get past the people who judge you on your size- they are unhappy people. According to the US goverment, I am overweight- I love my size! I got the shoulders of a linebacker, 6'3"- they say I should weigh 180- lol. I am 240, good looking and proud. I dont have a six pack but I dont have a keg either. My attitude conquers all- people like me. | |

| BBW...Why is it so hard to be full figured?? Posted: 9/23/2009 1:32:14 PM | | My gf thinks she is big too- she's not. She is bi- we have a great time with other women- We get stick thin girls and bigger girls- its attitude with us. I think food as a comfort is better than crack or any other drugs. Be proud, screw the lil nit wits who try to bring you down. | |

| BBW...Why is it so hard to be full figured?? Posted: 9/23/2009 2:20:34 PM |
its attitude with us
You know, this is true for me as well, I have dated pretty big guys and rail thin guys, body builders and strippers and, in the end, for me it's an attitude that I have found attractive. The hottest man on the planet can walk up to me or the sexiest woman and if the attitude is not there, if they are self concious or don't have any style to their personality, they can't get my attention. If they don't have any substance, they can't hold my attention.
It's funny to me that the same people that think there is something wrong with me at this weight would have looked at my depressed, self loathing, bulemic self 15 years ago and thought I was something special. That was when I was killing myself. Plus the years before that when I was yo-yo dieting, starving myself on grapefruit and toast as a teenager while running cross country and miserable, eventually leading to bulemia because I was 135lbs at 5' 7" with a DD chest and thought I was the fatest woman on earth. That's when these same people would have looked at me and thought I was healthy and attractive. It's ironic. Now that I am happy, succesful, and actually eat in a reasonable manner, that's when they suddenly think there is something wrong.  | |

How not to do WHAT? What exactly am I trying to accomplish in your esteemed opinion? I eat so little because I'm not that hungry. Am I supposed to stuff myself like a pig at the food trough when my body is telling me a grilled cheese would fill me up? Sorry, but your post didn't make much sense.
I am one of the first to admit I don't know everything. Not even close. But I DO know what works for me.
For some reason when a woman is happy not being thin she's percieved as being in denial or full of herself. If you don't like my type, there's plenty of other fish for ya. | |

| BBW...Why is it so hard to be full figured?? Posted: 9/23/2009 4:36:09 PM |
uuuum, so you're going to use "tough love" on someone you've never even met before??? How does THAT work...don't you have to love them in order for this to work???Do you even know this woman's name? So, yeah, talk about seriously flawed logic, Im calling bullsh!t I wouldn't expect a bottled blond to understand the bigger words, so maybe I'll break it down a bit further...
If someone is overweight and they use the excuse train of depression, Devil made me do it, comfort food, bad genes, slow metabolism, etc...and yet they constantly whine about their excess weight while gobbling down enough food in a sitting to feed a family of 3...then what sense is there to give them encouragement? That's like those that go to McDonalds and order 2 Big Macs a supersize fries and then order a DIET SODA to wash it down with. What a joke.
We need to encourage these people? Why? Are they THAT slow in the head that they can't put 2+2 together to realize that they're fat because they made themselves that way?! And we're supposed to supply them with happy-happy-joy-joy panderings?
Get real.
People you know, or complete strangers - it doesn't matter. If you're fat because you made yourself that way, I'll save my encouragement for those that actually wanna do something about it on their OWN and don't require "intervention" and platitudes to get them motivated. Lack of motivation is what got them in the mess to begin with. Besides, I refuse to help those that won't help themselves first. It ALL starts with YOU.
People shouldn't require encouragement to use the friggin' brains. Shouldn't require encouragement to apply common sense either.
"I eat like I've never seen food before and I weigh 300+ lbs...WHY?! THAT'S NOT FAIR! Why is this happening to me?!"
Please...spare me the nonsense.
and btw, nice way to go about trying to justify the fact that you are a d00cheb@g. Who said I needed any justification?
If refusal to be nicey-nicey with those obese ones out there that are doing nothing about it for themselves except using excuse after excuse, and need this so called encouragement to get them started makes me a douche...then it's a badge I'll wear with pride.
No justification needed.
I'd rather be a douche than be one of "them" that thrives on the pandering. | |

Can you understand why some people might think that, though? Many, many people in this country (I would say more than not) struggle with being honest with themselves. Rather than acknowledging there is something they are unhappy with about themselves and working to change it, most people prefer to put the blame on others for making them feel bad.
Perhaps this isn't the case with you, but it is an extremely common occurrence. Especially here on a place like an internet dating forum. | |

I've never seen a picture of a FAT prison camp survivor... Gee, wonder why?, one would think with all those millions, a few would have stayed fat due to bad genes or slow metabolism....
I've never seen a fat person in a famine stricken area either.... how odd.... | |

| BBW...Why is it so hard to be full figured?? Posted: 9/23/2009 5:04:46 PM | I'm a BBW. I have learned that the best way to be is confident. I love myself and believe I deserve to be loved in return. I don't know why you find it so hard to be a BBW. I have been on here for 5 days and my inbox is full. I think on order to be a successful BBW (as in life and love) you must be confident and secure in yourself before anyone else will be comfortable and secure with you. As for losing weight, I can offer this advice. Until you decided you are losing the weight for YOU, not anyone else, it won't work. Most importantly, losing the weight will not make you happy. Happiness is not a number on your scale. It's a feeling. If you can find the confidence to allow your innerself to shine, you may be pleasantly surprised at seeing the weight just melt off. I would also encourage you to please talk to a doctor. Your physician can give you wonderful advice that is customized for you and your goals. Best of luck on here... | |

M, take those people and put them now, after their ordeal, on a steady regular diet of even 1200 calories. You know what happens? They start getting fat because their bodies have learned to process every calorie extremely efficiently. That's why they have been able to survive on so little.
That's the same thing that many of us have been through. We have starved ourselves as youngsters trying to fit some cultural ideal we thought we should be. Now all it requires to gain weight from that point is an average diet. In order to lose, we would have to severally restrict our intake to the point where it would be very unpleasant.
That's one of the reasons it is so important to emphasize health rather than weight in our youngsters. Get them out playing sports and moving rather than focusing on the scale so we don't repeat the cycle with the next generation. It's already late for some of them. I watched my niece hit puberty and believe she was getting fat when, in truth, she was becoming a young woman. She ran 5 miles a day and ate well and was very healthy. She is still that way because her Mom caught it early, the weight obsession and steared her in a good direction.
As far as genetics goes, scientific evidence is contradicting your idea that genetics don't play a major role. We are finding genes that indicate a predisposition to being heavier or leaner. NOTE: You still have to have enough food to process in order to cause weight gain. When everyone is on starvation rations, that can't happen but honestly, who is willing to live on famine fair in order to fit a societal ideal? | |

Healthy and planned nutrition is the key to healthy body. Your body needs fuel, just like your car, or your remote need batteries. Your food is your energy source.
When you eat a very small amount (especially something with little nutritional value - such as grilled cheese sdw) - Your body holds on to your fat and also manages to create even more "fat" cells even with that little bit of food. That's a survival system for your body. Fat is used in an emergency as an energy source.
Basically you're making yourself fat with little food. But again all this is just useless for you, because you said that you do like being fat....and that's ok...your life, your body....
But you're in DENIAL thinking you're healthy and will keep on being healthy...eating one meal a day.... it won't last long...you're still young and using the "young ticket".... enjoy it while it lasts....
Good luck... | |

You named yourself after a cow? Is that a play on the BBW thing? That's got to be self-deprecation at it's worst!
if you read my profile to the end, you'd see how i got the name. | |

Too much food and not enough excercise are the ONLY reasons for being overweight...
you and all your fat-bashing friends keep telling yourselves that so that you can go on feeling smug and superior... | |

| BBW...Why is it so hard to be full figured?? Posted: 9/23/2009 5:54:21 PM | | divine: That article is misleading and very untrue. I'm living proof of that. It's written by someone who seems to have a very negative attitude and no knowledge of proper eating habits or will power while exercising. we're told to "diet AND exercise" for a reason. This person is saying that exercising doesn't work because they get hungry and eat a dozen doughnuts after they exercise. DUH!. Of course it won't work if you burn 900 cals doing cardio and then eat 10,000 which are mostly fat. I've never lost weight so fast in my life as I am right now exercising, doing cardio and eating the right foods (rarely any junk). The increased metabolism and basic rules of carbs before exercise and lots of low fat protein after working out is the key. That and the real will to stay thin. If people are truly happy being larger, I'm very happy for them. I don't feel that way myself. When I'm fat (I've been pretty large), my stomach feels bad, I have no energy and feel very uncomfortable moving in general. Not sure if it's true, but some doctors are saying that a waistline over 34" in men or women increases your chance of heart disease by over 50%. I'm not letting that happen to me anymore. | |

| BBW...Why is it so hard to be full figured?? Posted: 9/23/2009 6:01:32 PM | cw, i have access to hundreds of medical journals at the push of a button and i can tell you that the research in that article cited in the Time article has been proven more often than not. he *does* cite a "triple-blind" peer-reviewed study, after all.
losing weight is NOT as simple as the fat-bashers would have one believe. there are variables involved with ever individual.
of course there are those who sit there gobbling down fatty foods every chance they get. i don't deny they exist. but far too many people like to deny that there are societal, environmental and medical reasons to be overweight.
and to deny that those actually exist is flat-out cruel.

Cough cough, ahem...*horseshyte*!!!
By and large,losingweight isn't rocket science....one needs to burn more calories than one intakes on a daily basis...PERIOD. Whether that is via extra exercise, or just shoving themselves and their fork away from the table...it's willpower, but it's not rocket science.
OP....if you are venting about your weight being a reason you can't get dates? Then do something about it. If it's not the weight? Then focus on your positives.
Don't use it as a victim card, though. | |
|
| BBW...Why is it so hard to be full figured?? Posted: 9/23/2009 6:13:39 PM | Divine .... sorry to break it to you....however;
Overweight people as a result of a medical reason are in the minority, a very small percentage compared to people in denial..
I see these people everyday..... and majority whine ;
- Tried everything - Can't stop eating - I eat very little still can't lose - I exercise for hours everyday, still can't lose - I tried every diet, still can't lose
These people are in denial, and I have seen them with my very own eyes lose weight--slowly but in a healthy way... but guess what! a very few of them kept with it, they left the program and gained it all back....
Major myth ... diet! - It's a life style change...not a temporary thing. It's permanent. It needs dedication.
It's easier to sit on your butt infront of tv and eat doritos while blaming it on your genetics, your metabolism or your non-existent thyroid problem....

we'll just have to agree to disagree...
but, as i said, the studies prove that weight and losing it, are much more complicated than simply being in denial about how much you eat. since the other studies show that brain chemistry is affected by food, there's a lot more to (please forgive the pun) digest here. | |
|
| BBW...Why is it so hard to be full figured?? Posted: 9/23/2009 6:44:43 PM | ^^^
Who is sponsoring those studies ?
Kid gets bored in class, we have a pill for that! Kid wants to play, we have pill for that! I love eating apple pie, they'll give you a pill for that!
Come on now. Even supplement industry (proteins powders, get ripped/lose fat pills) is a 60 billion/ year industry. Huge money to be made..... huge!
I am sorry but, as a person who works out everyday, with tons of different people from all walk of life - coming in different shapes and excuses .... your BS medical studies mean nothing to me...
again there may be a condition in the brain which affects 1-2% of the population, of course in the minority and means nothing.
All this btw, coming from an ex fatty. Been there, done that - I even have the T-shirt .... | |

| BBW...Why is it so hard to be full figured?? Posted: 9/23/2009 7:00:53 PM | | divine: I don't think anyone denies that glandular problems exist but I don't think that it accounts for the majority of obese people you see walking around everyday. It's a combination of a culture of bad food and being cursed with a very slow metabolism. It isn't fair that some people can eat anything and still look lean and in shape without lifting a finger while another person has to eat the healthiest food possible and exercise 2 hours a day but unfortunately that's the way it is. I know because, for the most part, I'm physical evidence that this is true. Never mind papers and studies. Just look at the true evidence around you. People should spend less time trying to do studies to find out "why" and more time putting in the extreme work needed to accomplish the goal. They may be surprised at the results. I know it seems like it's impossible but once the major hurdle of completely changing a bad lifestyle is overcome, the rest falls into place. The problem with being overweight is the vicious circle you get into. You get mad and depressed because you want to lose weight but it just causes you to eat more comfort food which makes you gain even more weight. It becomes a bad habit and it takes a lot more will power to break it than it does to quit smoking in my opinion. | |

| BBW...Why is it so hard to be full figured?? Posted: 9/24/2009 6:25:02 AM | I am not saying change who you are, you might be an incredible person, but for me when I see any overweight woman I think they don't take care of themselves. When I think that all I think about is health problems, which is something I don't want to deal with.
I use to be 300 pounds, I am 215 now (and about 6'4), all it took me is a healthier diet and regular exercise (and I stuck with it). Someone who takes their personal health into consideration is important when searching, so it will most likely be important to other men.
Don't change who you are, just work towards a healthier lifestyle. | |
