What was that again?

in Chit-Chat
I have a friend on Facebook who's #1 excuse for not losing weight is that her boobs are so big that every time she tries to lose weight she falls over. Yeah right ok. Yet she's talking about just grabbing a knife & chopping them off a little in order to fit into tops again. :noway:

I was wondering if others have had excuses like that tossed at them from others.

    Tell her to put on multiple gym bras. That's a lame excuse. She can start with calories and once she loses some mass from her boobs, she can exercise better if her excuse is legit. However, I call B.S.

    Sometimes any excuse is preferable to admitting that we just aren't ready for the long-term dedication and hard work that has to come.

    Her excuse is as much to herself as it is to you.

    I have DDDs and I can manage to go and work out. If she really hates her chest that much she can have reduction surgery, otherwise put on your big girl panties and suck it up.

    I used to make a lot of excuses. Then someone told me I just wasn't ready to commit to myself. Her comment flipped a switch and I've managed to stay committed to my goals through some major trials.

    I think that just because you are losing weight or doing whatever to change your lifestyle does not give anyone/you the right to judge anothers choice

    if you see it as an excuse or it annoys you just dont listen to them

    I had big boobs but that was not my excuse. Mine was my back, my knees & the fact I didnt want to. I sucked it up.... went all out & still have my back, my knees but now I want to do it.

    It kinda bugs me a little you know ..... just a little. I had to so hold my font when she said that. I mean it's no big deal if I was un-friended at all... but damn.

    She may be fishing for compliments. I would probably offer some casual advice like the multiple sports bras or something that is working for you.

    I know how she feels.

    If I lose weight and get an erection I pass out because less blood.

    ^^^^^^^^^^^
    This - in my opinion, your friend doesn't want to do anything physical. We all have friends like this. Unfortunately.

    Yeah that was the general feeling I got. That''s why it was so hard for me to just not say anything. Oh well... her life not mine. But the only thing is why complain about it if you are not ever going to do anything about it? Most of us on here may complain but at least we are doing something about it.

    My thoughts on the subject are that if she doesn't want to get active/ get healthy/ lose weight or whatever, that's fine. I wouldn't want to preach to anyone because I know how it felt to be preached to when I wasn't ready to make a commitment to changing my lifestyle.

    But I agree, those excuses are rubbish. I would be more understanding of her choice if she said "I just don't want to change badly enough to do anything about it".

    That I could accept. I've been there.
