Watching Thin People Eat

Women who are smart enough to sustain a healthy cocaine habit & throw up after meals will stay thin. Let them be your role-models, chunky ladies.

Like Kate Moss, oh I admire her so much.Maybe if im really lucky I can get myself an emotional f*** up like Pete Docherty to go out with too!!

Are you talking about the coke-heads who have brains like oatmeal?

From Amazon: The Fidget Factor

I've actually read the book. "Fidgeting" includes not only nervous habits, but making a concerted effort to move your body from place to place--and in place--frequently during the day.

Thin people do not load up their forks for second bites until they have chewed, savored and swallowed first bites.

Not my husband, or any of his family. Who are all very thin.

I know I'm being contrarian, but the more I read on this subject, the more I am against dieting as a concept. My definition of dieting is roughly, "Purposely changing one's eating habits so as to try to lose weight." I make exceptions when people have patently horrible diets -- every meal at McDonald's say. But when people have pretty much normal if not absolutely perfect diets, I think this stuff is counterproductive, long term.

Partly it's for purely biological reasons -- when you starve your body (which is what is happening if you are purposely not taking in enough calories to maintain your weight), your body changes its settings so that you will get more calories out of whatever you do eat, and it will be much easier to gain weight (and harder to lose it) with every round of dieting.

The other is psychological -- all of this self-flagellation about how thin people supposedly eat (really, what is this based on? It doesn't jibe with any of the really thin people I actually know) or what is "good" food and what is "bad" food and portion sizes or whatnot sets people up for "indulgence" and "just this once" and "breaking the rules" and generally making it more difficult to keep to a plain old regular not-perfect-but-not-so-bad diet.

Eat what you want within reasonable bounds and exercise is what I have long held and what every study on this seems to support.

>rant over<

When my parents come back of holiday in a week we are all going on diets.
Im gona hate my whole life from then on.

^^^^ then there's another thing. People won't continue with things that make them hate their life, generally speaking. I guess there are people who would rather eat like a bird than exercise -- for me, though, exercise doesn't only not make me hate my life, it makes me enjoy it more, in and of itself (with the added benefit of weight loss).

Agreeing with Sozobe.

Soz--



I am reasonable, your concepts are elastic and she just eats too much.

One reason I'm packing extra pounds is that I eat absent-mindedly--even mindlessly.

My "diet" is really a major change in my lifestyle.

My metabolism may be against me. My intestinal flora and fauna may win Blue Ribbons at the County Fair as Super Digestive Bacteria. A dislike for exercise is must be overcome.

Life is hard, but if I eat all the bon bons and petit fours that I deserve, I'll be waddling along that metaphorical Rocky Road.

My cardio-vascular system hasn't read the latest research. Neither has my immune system. My bones are brittle and shouldn't be bearing any more weight than is necessary.

I am not a helpless pawn of fate. I can change my habits.

isn't it great that we come in different sizes ?
some of us are fat ...


some of us are skinny ...


the fatties look a lot happier than the skinny
hbg

That last picture of the skinny as a stick insect made me nearly heave.That is horrid.Who on earth thinks that that looks desirable!!!

Id be happy to be somewhere between the rake and the leotarded guys.

I agree, that girl looks very very sick, and the designer who promotes
such anorexic models, should be boycotted.

I hear the "death look" is in this year.

Moderation in all things.

Even love?

Miller--

Especially in love.

too much of a good thing is wonderful.

Viagra could kill you!

You can get too much moderation.
