[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No. But I do enjoy looking at myself when I have a good body.

Honestly, being fit is really easy. It's just requires you to eat right and workout consistently.  It's like going to school, in which getting good grades just means you need to do your homework every day/week.

It's not hard, and I find it odd that people have such a hard time doing it consistently.  I guess this sentence makes me sound like I feel superior, but I assure you that I do not, because I don't find that being physically fit is difficult. And so I don't feel superior for doing something easy.[/quote]

NP.  You, like many other respondents in this thread, know intuitively that you’re not supposed to feel superior.  But you do feel superior, AND YOU SHOULD.  And  I say that as someone who is in okay shape but not particularly fit.  It takes effort, consistency, and discipline to be physically fit, especially as we age, and as you pointed out, most (American) adults simply will not do it.  So why on Earth shouldn’t the responsible hard workers feel superior?  They objectively are, at least in some ways.[/quote]

PP here. I don't feel superior because it's not difficult for me personally to be fit. I found the workout routine that works for me and I live next to the gym. I found the diet that works for me and I make enough money to buy what I like to eat. I mostly work from home and can eat what I want from the fridge and not be tempted by foods from work. This isn't something to brag about, personally.

For some reason, I sense that you would find yourself feeling inferior to people who are fit. In some ways, I think this is like being jealous of someone who comes from family money. They might be fitter than you simply because they got lucky and figured out what works for them sooner than you, or just have more time than you because they have a nanny that takes care of everything.

I hope you are able to figure out a workout routine, or some form of exercise (i.e., tennis, pickleball, gymnastics) that you really enjoy, and you can fast track yourself to being fit as well. In addition, I hope you figure out easy simple healthy recipes that you like eating. Good luck![/quote]

Your entire post is nothing but bragging.  Are you from one of these younger generations who think that words mean whatever you decide they mean because you feel like that’s what they should mean?

I can say that I absolutely feel intellectually superior to just about every person I interact with on DCUM.  Y’all are a bunch of morons, to be frank.[/quote]
