NOT attractive.<BR/><BR/>s did it much the same way as you, hard work and counting calories. sparkpeople was a HUGE part of my success too. you are doing this the right way, your unsupportive friend is taking the easy way out. i'm betting that she totally resents you for your strength and ability to change your life and do it the hard way.<BR/><BR/>you're amazing!!<BR/><BR/>xoxox<BR/><BR/><BR/>ps. thanks for delurking on my page!!rachel elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09212585740665659044noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5842352133103254385.post-7757142531763384582009-01-12T14:47:00.000-06:002009-01-12T14:47:00.000-06:00I'm going to take a lot of flack for this comment ...I'm going to take a lot of flack for this comment someday... but I think obesity-reduction surgery is a cop-out. I don't want to hear about food addiction or any of that crap. There's no such thing. That's something some "doctor" thought up to make a name for himself to get really rich and then thousands of markets capitalized on because humans are by nature quite lazy and will do anything to do NOTHING. Bottom line - Stop eating sh*t and take care of yourself. Your friend is losing weight now, but she's going to plateau and she's never going to be 110lbs because she's still eating crap. Your relationship with food is cause and effect... eating lots of french fries and drinking tons of "diet" coke will cause you to gain weight. The cause is the french fries/diet coke... the effect is the weight gain.<BR/><BR/>I work very hard at being a "skinny b*tch". I HATE when people accuse me of being one of those "naturally skinny girls". Ummm no... I have to watch everything I eat and it SUCKS... It's the price I pay for vanity though. (and good health *sigh*) The thing is... your friend clearly only wants to be skinny for vanity sake... She got her surgery and she'll be "skinny" but since she's still eating crap she won't really be healthy so she'll have the body of a skinny fat person... At least you'll be truly skinny! She may look skinny, but her body won't feel it. Trust me... and she won't ever understand why either. I know lots of girls who have had that surgery and their weight STILL fluctuates dramatically because they never bothered to alter their eating habits. <BR/><BR/>Just remember... Nothing TASTES as good as being skinny FEELS!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
