I mean, seriously. I, myself am not thin and I never will be. I have a large family, and I have a really bad metabolism.
Besides, back in medevil (sp?) times, women who were heavier-set were viewed as healthier, and ble to bear better sons... not that I want that last part... XD So, this raises the question; why do Americans feel the need to look down upon us larger girls, and think that we aren't pretty, aren't as smart, can't do as many things, etc.? |

Global Warming? I don't know, maybe because it's better for their health. Plus do you know how uncomfortable it is just to be overweight? I do bulking and cutting phases in my diets and gym routine. So changing from thin/rip to fat/soft back and forth at least 1 a year, you'll easily notice a difference. Prior to becoming a health freak, I used to be overweight. Was 245lbs and my blood pressure was actually high lol. After the doc told me my vitals, I decided to join the gym, and hit the gym hard :D I did cardio twice a day everyday except for sundays. I would wake up at 5:45 AM and be at gym by 6:00AM. Start my cardio (treadmill) and run for a minimum of 30 minutes. Unless I do HIIT, which is something to do for at max 15 minutes, unless you're an athlete. Go home and take a shower, eat breakfast, and go to work. Then after work (which was random hours of the day, most of the time past 5) I would go straight to the gym, change out, and hit the treadmill. For another 30 minutes. Thank God MP3 players existed back then :D I love being thin, having huge bursts of energy, waking up feeling fresh and energetic etc... So getting on a diet, isn't anything to be ashamed about. It's basically your responsibility to take care of your own body/health. If not, you'll just let yourself go and die from your own poisoning. |
