vent--There are too many skinny people at the gym

lets make a support group for all the trophy wives and meatheads then

We did. You weren't invited because you don't make the requirements. :flowerforyou:


Don't take that offensively though. I'm just venting

even if its twisted i am trying to lighten the mood i mean come on I'd love to be a trophy wife

YES

No, i like the skinny people. I want to be one of them one day and it's nice to see the same people every week. Make friends, work hard.

All I have to say is that this thread makes me glad I saved calories today so I could have my gelato tonight - Sea Salt Caramel. Yum!

sea. salt. caramel. OH. MY. GOD.

I am almost obsessed. I even went to other flavors for two cartons of ice cream to see how they tasted, and I just kept thinking, it's not sea salt caramel. But it's ok. The last time I needed ice cream - sea salt caramel ended up in my cart (and now I need to buy more, because I know there is less than I budgeted for left in the carton.) I also add caramel syrup on top, because caramel.

I don't like being called skinny...

I'm a meathead accountant.

I'm pretty sure you're not allowed to be fit and good at math. It's in the rules somewhere.

But then how do you keep track of the weight you are bench pressing?

I believe the unfit but good at math have invented cheat sheets for that. For the meathead who has everything.

Sorry, but when I'm working out. I'm doing it for MYSELF and I don't really care what everyone else thinks. It doesn't really matter if "Barbie" is hanging next to me, so long as I'm burning!

I somewhat I understand what your saying, but really your going for yourself. Who cares what other people think. Your making an effort and that's all that matters. Just don't compare yourself to others, you aren't them! Your you!

They have apps that tell you what type of plates you need on each side to get the right weight :indifferent:

It is intimidating to go to the gym and feel like the only fat person there. I understand how you feel but just think.. they are skinny because they workout.. and that's what you are there for... focus only on you and what you want and make your workout the best it can be for you.. use their image as motivation for yourself. If you want, ask them how they got their body... they will most likely be flattered and may give you some tips for motivation... nobody is born with a perfect body.. we make them. You will get more out of your workout if you forget about what you look like and focus on what you want.

God, this is possibly the worst post I've ever read on MFP.

Why is this ok? You don't know anything about anyone else there. Maybe they were fat, maybe they weren't. Maybe they're there to pick up men. Maybe they like putting makeup on before they go on a machine. Maybe they are big huge lunks who enjoy picking things up and putting them down. Maybe they are trying to work off diabetes. Maybe they just like to run. Maybe they are going to go home to half a pizza, maybe they are going home to 5 kids and a dirty kitchen.

Who gives a flying leap? Get over yourself.

But hey, I'm just a fat girl venting.

....and their are too many fat people at Burger King,......maybe there is a connection here?

Great. This means I now have to reread what you wrote and look for the underlying meaning.

Calling someone Joe Meat Head and Trophy wife is NO Better than someone saying something rude about an over weight person. You do not know them or their situation! Someone sounds a little green!! Worry about yourself. I have a lot of weight to lose and I prefer to look at people more fit than I am as motivation!
