    So you're saying that people are being forced to eat more than they need to...many to the point of discomfort?

    These foods are available to us...but we do have to choose to eat them.

    Correct, the mere fact that you have to count your calories on a website like this to maintain a healthy weight should indicate to you that you didn't simply choose to overeat. Tell me what wild animal becomes obese because it has too much food available to it? Show me an indigenous human tribe that does not consume anything other than their native diet and becomes obese?

    Hmm... I knew what I was doing when I did it. I knew fast food was killing me, especially having it 3 times a week, some weeks daily. I knew that when I was older I could go buy and cook my own food, but I didn't. I'm not going to compare myself to a wild animal as that's apples to oranges, in my opinion. Our environment is not healthy, yes, I agree with that. But people do need to take some personal responsibility for their health.

    Also, I will add I'm not trying to argue, but I just don't understand your thought process. But...I'm content that we both have our own opinions on the subject.

    I do think she looks amazing, but I don't understand why these women with amazing physiques that they work so hard for feel the need to stick those stupid cartoon boobs on themselves.
    I want to see more women embrace looking athletic and muscular without the giant bazumbas.

    Hi there - they came before, not after.

    I'm not sure if her's are real or not, but some women just naturally have them. I am one of those women who have them. I'm 127 lbs at 5'2.5 and I wear a 34 D. I can't seem to get rid of them, just saying that not all women with a smaller frame have fake boobs.

    Animals, when they have a surplus food supply tend to dedicate their time to expanding their populations and thus creating more mouths to feed on the available food. It is entireley possible to overfeed wild animals in captivity on their natural diet, by making too much available, its just that cruel mother nature has ways of making sure that doesn't happen in the wild.

    Yea, my fiance would not be too pleased with me looking like that. LOL

    I wouldn't want to look like that. I want to be feminine and in shape. I don't want to look like a man. But to each, his/her own.

    They're fake. No-ones boobs sit like that in a string bikini unless they're fake. When I was 130lbs and 17 years old I was a 32E and they didn't do that.
    I'm a 34E now and I can't WAIT to have smaller boobs, I need some serious scaffolding to even make them look HALF decent, and at 26, that's a damn sad time.

    She looks amazing.

    I'd love to look just less cut than that, she looks incredible but my sights are a little lower. I'd love someone like Matt to coach me though, really. Jealous.

    i will never lift a weight! women with muscles that big are just weird (no offence to anyone)

    Why do people say "no offense" after a comment that is, basically, an insult? You still look like a jerk. How do you think the women who work very hard for a muscular body feel when they read what you wrote? "No offense" doesn't make it better.

    Her MAN posted those pictures. That was flat out rude. She doesn't look like a man. She looks like a feminine woman with some muscles and definition who has worked hard and is definitely in shape. You could have left it at to each his/her own without saying she looked like a man.

    Lifting weight isnm't going to make any women bulk up. It will only enhance what they already have.

    I "love" comments like this (sarcasm). Of course you meant to judge AND offend. Have you seen some of the amazing, strong women on this site who have those muscles you so dislike? Women with muscles "that big" (that's not even very big in fitness competition standards) aren't "weird." They're just different than YOU.

    i can see the argument that this website is a shrine to First World Problems. b/c living in the land of plenty in a time of plenty IS a First World Problem.

    HOWEVER - as an obese person, as a MORBIDLY obese person, it WAS a choice. it was a choice every time i ate my problems and my feelings rather than confronting them. it was a CHOICE to sit in front of the TV. it was a CHOICE to put things in my cart at the supermarket and then to put them in my body at home. it was a CHOICE to order an ENTIRE pizza and eat it ALL. these were all a thousand little choices every single day that cummulated in in the CHOICE to be obese.

    and that's not even touching the choice EVERY DAY to NOT CHANGE.

    i still work two jobs, i still like TV, i still like pizza, i still have a house to clean and laundry to do and an amazing dog who wants to curl up on my lap on my big, comfy couch. but now i CHOOSE to change. i CHOOSE to live my life and not let it pass me by. i CHOOSE to get to the gym and to put healthier stuff in my cart. and a buck-passing attitude where it is someone else's fault how i live, how i look and how i feel is no longer good enough for me.

    i think she looks great! everyone saying, i wouldnt want to look like that, or my SO wouldnt want me to look like that....well, i think shes got her flex on in these pics, lol. im sure she doesnt have a pump like that all the time, and im willing to bet my bottom dollar that she looks like a freaking knock out in jeans and a tee too. just saying. not a jiggly bit on that body. i would LOVE!!! stick to cardio and eat like a bird...youre depriving your body, ya, youl lose weight, but dont expect the jiggles to go away with out some weight training, that is all.

    Does this really have to turn into one of those ridiculous "are women with muscles attractive" threads? Seriously.

    Is it not enough to acknowledge that this woman has set herself a challenging goal, was worked hard and has achieved a high level of conditioning? How about just saying "Well done on achieving your goals!"

    I think what some people are also failing to realise is that this lady has options. If she wants the physique of a swim wear model she can just diet up again and add body fat. She has the physique of a figure competitor now because that is what she wants. She has applied herself and it has worked.

    Well worth repeating.

    I think Yo looks stunning and and personally, doesn't look manly at all. Seriously, well done and all the best!

    What looks masculine and feminine is subjective to many. She can think what she likes and she can look like what she wants.
