Ladies and gentlemen welcome to dcum, where thin, rich women don't need a nutritionist or a trainer to stay thin. Not healthy really, they don't care about that as much as they claim. If they were that healthy, they would not be waking up at 4:30 am to achieve a model scary skinny look! Cause if they are that educated, surely they read studies about sleep being essential to a healthy body and mind!
If they could be skinny eating potatoes chips all day long, they would!

You are just bat shit with all those exclamation points. Do you even know anyone in real life like you are talking about?

Ha, ha. You care, you care bcs you think waking up early and being thin makes you better than those that do no wake up early and are a bit overweight! Why don't you just move back to the good old times where women were not worth anything if they were not good-looking and decorated to wealthy and then as a brooding mare? When another mistress replaces you as a decoration and as something else. Your values are the same as of those that kept women without rights for centuries. You must love them patriarchal values!

I say this as a person who has often lacked the discipline to make healthy dietary choices and make time for adequate exercise. I know when I reach for the junk and relax on the couch instead of going for a walk that I’m making lazy choices. I always had excuses— work, kids, commute, difficulty managing stress, a variety of health issues—but it really did come down to lack of discipline. Trying to turn over a new leaf, but it is challenging after a decade of increasingly bad habits. That’s on no one but me.

Environmental circumstances impact humans. That’s a fact. It may involve you, but it’s not “no one” but you. Your personal will is not normally stronger than the entire culture around you. We aren’t built that way. A person working a double shift and then reaching for cheap, tasty and abundantly available energy is not “lazy”. It’s predictable behavior for a reason. They know where to put the chips and candy in the store for a reason.

Yes. They do that because a lot of people are lazy. Sorry but it is the truth.

Because most of us are not working double shifts or struggling with trauma. Of course it will be beyond challenging for those people. For the rest of us it does take hard work and sacrificing some pleasure. I wish I could eat whatever I want whenever I want, but that’s not realistic for good health. A happy medium works for me—I’m okay with being average weight rather than thin. And I loathe exercise but force myself to walk at least an hour per day, take stairs etc. because I want to be healthy. I think I’m basically in the middle where most people could be with a moderate amount of commitment and effort.

I worked double shifts for years. I’d come home and eat a yogurt and apple, peanut butter sandwich, a bowl of oatmeal, scrambled eggs. It isn’t any harder. It really isn’t. People just like junk food and would rather not do any food preparation what do ever.

It is. Your diet would keep me from becoming overweight, not get skinny. To be on the low side of my healthy weight i.e. "skinny", it takes a considerable effort. HUGE effort. I'm 5'7 and, at 45 y/o, I can't get to the 125 lbs. where I was for ages, pretty much effortless, by just not eating junk. There's huge difference in maintaining a 153 lbs. (the top of my healthy range) vs. a 121, where I won't be again.

Yes, I do own my choices, which are that I am not a shallow, insecure thin person who derives self-worth from tearing others apart. You can deny it all you want, but acting outraged for being called out on your and other thin women's bad behavior is not the same.
It is interesting that you used the phrase insecure loser to describe me, but we all know that in these scenarios you and all the ones like you tearing overweight people down are the real insecure losers and bullies.

Sure, sure. You aren't a judgmental bully yourself. You're doing a fine job trying to tear down people who have a different lifestyle and mindset than you. But it's totally self-defeating because you aren't changing anyone. Nobody is outraged at your "calling out" attempts. They are merely holding the mirror back at you. Wallow in your discomfort of being exactly what you claim to hate.

You can have a different lifestyle and a mindset, when you think your mindset and lifestyle are superior, that is where I draw the line.
If you are not outraged at my posts, why are you here and answering?
Some life choices, sitting at your laptop on the 4th of July!

I'm astonished that one individual can have zero self awareness. This is the weirdest thread I've read here recently. It's basically just rubbernecking at what ridiculous statement will be said next. So, please keep entertaining.

So if you extrapolate, then yes, thin people are hard working and determined. And it does take a lot of perseverance and dedication to maintain a healthy body and work out. It's easy to be fat and lazy.

People can be skinny AND lazy. Some people are skinny bc of their genes / metabolism (ie not because they “persevere” or bc they are “dedicated”).
A skinny body is not always a “healthy body”.
Some people are overweight because of executive function issues, medication or other illnesses. “Fat and lazy” is a very dismissive, ableist comment.

Every other signal of wealth can now much more easily be faked. You can take on a huge mortgage or a car payment you can’t afford or buy a bunch of luxury goods on credit. But to have good skin, good teeth, and be thin? That takes real $$$

I’m wealthy and thin as are most of my friends. No one has a dietician or personal trainer. Many of us work also. You just have to have the discipline to wake up at 4:30 to work out and be able to say no to indulging in junk food or over eating in general. The food I eat most frequently is very basic and inexpensive. Oatmeal, eggs, apples, lentils, beans, yogurt, seasonal produce. Sure if you live in the Whole Foods salad bar is it expensive. But eating reasonably heathy doesn’t need to be costly or ultra time consuming

You have that "discipline" and smugness because the other stressors in your life from NOT being wealthy are missing. You have the emotional and psychological bandwidth to be overly concerned with your health and appearance because you are not worried about paying your mortgage or whatever.
