Respect the skinny people too!

I'm totally ok with "skinny" people eating healthy. What always makes me mad is when I see someone who could be the next Victoria Secret Model down 2 bottles of Jager and eat an entire cheese cake...and then repeat the next day with a new mix of unhealthy and mostly likely 10,000 calories worth of food...and they don't change one bit. I believe the going phrase for this is "skinny fat", because that same person probably could not do half the exercises people who are healthy can do. I'm just saying...as someone who struggles with weight, this can really get me in a mood to make not so great comments about that specific person....

I can understand you getting frustrated and envious of their metabolism. My wife is a total 'skinny fat'. I'm not by ANY means. I have to WORK to lose the same amount of weight in a week that she loses if she only eats 3k ONE day... But really that's your issue and NEVER warrants rude comments. Sorry but it's true. I don't make my wife feel bad about being able to eat whatever she wants while I eat super healthy even though I want pizza. (I don't take 'cheat' days. I'm too stubborn.)

Most importantly....Thank you for your service! It is your service that allows us here in the USA to be able to have this kind of discussion! Thank you for protecting that right!


Thank you! And your last couple posts really made me smile. Those are funny comebacks.

I used to be a skinny fat girl, too and people wanted to force feed me sammiches! Hence the reason I LOATHE the word skinny.... I FINALLY gained the weight, after years of trying and then got into a shape, rather than a stick and STILL get called skinny, but now I watch what I eat and try to make sure I am eating enough and that its healthy-ish. I could still very easily drop the weight without thinking or blinking, so I know where your wife is coming from. It is not at all cool when people think they can 'poke' fun, because our metabolism is higher, or we have great genes, or whatever the case may be...

No matter WHAT someone weighs, the decision to eat healthy food is always a good one! Because the reason to eat healthy food or to exercise ultimately isn't to look good in a swimsuit (though that's a nice bonus!), but to BE healthy. And making critical comments about that person's decision to take care of themselves is quite frankly beyond stupid.

That said, if the calorie counts in your diary are accurate, you should definitely think about eating more food. By all means eat more healthy food and stay away from junk, but 400 calories in a day is the opposite of healthy.

I focus on things I actually *can* change. How someone sees me and others is not one of those things. I have enough going on inside my own head. I can't allow other people's warped senses of image and self pervade my thoughts.
