I WANT to be FAT!!!

The worst part about joining this site was entering my starting weight and calculating my BMI. I was horrified to discover I wasn't just fat, I was Obese.

Obese. What a horrible word to be labelled with. But there I was.

And, even worse, I wasn't just, like, borderline obese. The little marker that pinpointed my BMI was way over the threshold of obesity. I would have to lose close to 20 pounds to get out of the obese category.

Twenty pounds? How in the world will I ever be able lose TWENTY pounds?

And it occurred to me that even if I did manage somehow to lose twenty pounds, I'd still be FAT. In fact, I'd be borderline obese.

But that's better than obese.

So, that's my short-term goal. I have to get out of the obese category.

I want to be fat!

    I am SO with you on that statement, Mikey! Actually, I'd like to move from morbidly obese to just obese...

    thanks for the response!

    it's crazy, i tell ya! but we're heading in the right direction. the labels are disgusting, but i have to admit being labelled Obese actually made me do something about it. i salute your loss of 16 lbs, by the way. very cool. keep it up!

    personally, i think that whole BMI thing is sort of unrealistic. i'm not at all sure i accept the weight it says i should be. seems way lower than i would expect for someone my height.

    obviously, closer i get to whatever they say my ideal weight is, the better. but i'm skeptical of their actual number.

    I'm getting closer and closer. Just three more pounds and I'll be fat! Not phat, mind you. Fat.

    But I can deal with fat. I just couldn't deal with Obese any longer.

    No doubt I'll be fat for a long time. It'll be quite a while before I can change that personal adjective. But right about now I'm just focused on getting nice and fat.

    And tonight is Pork Chop Night. Nothing better than a nice fried pork chop with mashed potatoes and pan gravy if you really want to be fat!

    mmmmmmm.......pork chop gravy!!!
