| 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. | |

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. | |

Posted: 9/24/2009 6:58:06 AM | I know fat people (unfortunately) and the mount of times they have told me it's for medical reason is unbelievable. Yet when you ask them what the had for tea last night, 8/10 times its KFC, McDonalds, Chinese takeaway. Not necessarily altogether ;)
I still can't get me head around the big people trying to say that it's perfectly OK to be that size. It's NOT! Then they try their best to defend it.
Laughable! | |

Posted: 9/24/2009 7:33:09 AM | People seem to be quick to fight over this issue. Truth be told I find it amusing. It's like you people are afraid obeseity is an illness you can catch just by associating with someone. I hate to break it to you, but you can't. So holding up that holy cross of "YOU MUST DIET & EXERCISE YOU SINNER!" isn't really going to save you from some looming evil.
So NOT counting the people who get depressed over thier weight, NOT counting people that have existing or developing illnesses (diabetes, heart concerns, cancer, etc), & NOT counting Sumo wrestlers, what is your problem with people who are bigger than you & just don't mind? Are there not ENOUGH skinny men/women out there for you that you need some converts? Are you really afraid we're hogging up all the resources?
I was raised that people are generally different. They have different thoughts, different opinions (those smart enough to come up with thier own & not just parrot everyone else), different likes & dislikes. I, for example, do not like peppers. Almost everyone in my family loves peppers, especially bell. No big deal. I like strawberry jelly, my mother was always a fan of grape. NOTHING wrong with that. So, if you don't like anyone over a certain size, DON'T DATE THEM! Easiest thing in the world. There are people that like bigger men/women & there are people who like not so big. Granted, there are tons of people not happy with thier weight, but I doubt they'll be thanking you later for your rude remarks & constant preaching of the "lifestyle" routine. And I'm surprised some of you are coming across as unhappy as you are. You did the good deed, you lost your excess weight, & your on the fast track to wealth, fame, & never sleeping alone. So what are you so upset about?
But enough of playing devil's advocate, please continue to argue amongst yourselves. The original poster does not seem inclined to continue & your parroting of each other has gotten old. Come get me if anything exciting happens. | |

No, I just make fun of fat people to get a cheap laugh. They're easy target. A big lady I know who used to blame her weight on every thing but her lack of discipline. Then she was confined to bed due to surgery. She lost 40 lbs in a short time. How? Because she can't raid the fridge during the night anymore.
I dare any fat people come to my treatment room to see if I can cure your "disease".
Be warned. There is no access to any kind of food without my permission. | |

Posted: 9/24/2009 8:24:37 AM | | rabid: You sound just as angry and bitter towards people who tried to make a difference in their health as some of the fat bashers in here. I think the main thing that's irritating people is the way every excuse in the book is used to justify being obese yet complain about it. It sends a VERY dangerous message to kids by telling them that they should just continue to gain tons of weight because dieting and trying to keep fit won't do them any good anyway. I find this really disturbing. I bet most of the people making the excuses haven't REALLY tried to make serious life changes. I understand how unappealing that road is at first but it does work most of the time. I'm willing to bet that a lot of these "studies" showing dieting and exercise doesn't work were funded by fast food chains and/or drug companies who have a lot to lose or gain from the problem. Without the continuing cycle of bad food/bad health/medication these people go bankrupt and they are extremely powerful. There's a reason it's the "food and drug" administration. They get to control the whole cycle and they're incredibly corrupt. It doesn't take a genius to see what they're doing. It is totally wrong to put down people for their weight and I'm truly happy for anyone who is completely content with the way they are but for people who want to change, they shouldn't be misled either. | |

Posted: 9/26/2009 5:32:04 PM | | Me I likes some thick shapely women. Also in addition to that, I like the confident ATTITUDE that some display. They don't whine about how imperfect they are, they make the best of what they have and FLAUNT IT WELL (an attitude I can definitely relate to). They also seem to be the most loving, down to earth women you can meet. I'm saying not just to the OP but to all women, if you got a little size on you, don't be apologetic about it, but I am about being healthy also. There's nothing wrong with finding room for improvement with yourself. If you do choose to lose weight, do it for health reasons rather than vanity. Lose weight and IMPROVE YOUR HEALTH if you can but in the meantime EMBRACE AND ENHANCE WHAT YOU ALREADY GOT. | |

Posted: 9/26/2009 5:41:12 PM | | But also I want to add. If you ARE TOTALLY NOT HAPPY WITH HOW YOU LOOK, then quit finding excuses, complaining and DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT. No sense in being bitter or angry about it, it only shortens your days. I don't want to sound mean like some of these condiscending post writers but what a lot of them are saying may have some truth to it. I understand it's not easy and frustrations may occur because of the physical condition you are in, but you have a choice. Will you let it defeat you or will you find the will to overcome it. | |

Posted: 9/26/2009 6:40:45 PM | I have a buddy who once weighed in at plus 350lbs.... he was ok with his weight for years........
Then one day he decided to do something about it.... he did.... boy, did he ever.... he's actually lighter than me now.... (**stard - LOL)
But he's kept the weight off for over a decade....
His secret? He stopped eating junk food... he started excercising... (just walking...)
He cut back on the booze... (not a lot... just a good bit...)
He stopped going back for seconds and cut out fatty foods....
He also now has a steady lady.... Hmmmm seems like you can lose a lot of weight if YOU REALLY WANT TO.... | |

Posted: 10/12/2009 1:21:36 AM | I am only 21 and have had a problem with weight my whole 21 loooooooong years, (lol) always been the chunky one in class, but ya know...life moves on...life has too much to offer to be worried about other peoples opinions....people have been through things and sometimes the outcome is never good. Dont be low in confidence....Men love a woman with high confidence that just knows shes beautiful. Watch that movie Phat Girlz with MoNique, lol..it helped meee!! Other than the fact that I found a man who loves every inch of me...accepts my every flaw, and kisses every scar. Dont feel uncomfortable!  | |

Posted: 10/13/2009 1:00:09 PM | | Well, I know for a fact that there are plenty of men and women who are very much into bbws and full figured women. I think you should just be who you are and the right people will appreciate you for it. Other than that, start a healthy diet/work-out regimen and get to where you want to be. | |

It's like you people are afraid obeseity is an illness you can catch just by associating with someone. I hate to break it to you, but you can't.
Actually, rabid, you CAN catch it in a way - people tend to emulate the people with whom they associate often. They want to fit into the group, so may adopt their friends' eating habits, and because they also like their friends and feel that their friends are okay, they accept their friends weight issues and aren't as vigilant about their own health and weight.
Sorry, I neglected to save the reference to the study on this, so can't provide it. | |
