[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As an obese woman who is now not obese...I will be honest and say that yes, I do notice obese women and while I wouldn't say "disgusted", I guess "put off" by them would be appropriate and I am don't think I am alone in my thinking even if no one wants to admit it...[/quote]

We all have our strong points. I see women with expensive things and think how much debt they might be in. I also assume that the majority of thin women have much more free time than I do.  I work full time, run kids to activities, go to school part time.  If I had more than 4 or 5 hours a week to work out and cook, I'd sure be thinner.[/quote]

I just want to say that even if you're busy, it is totally worth it to dedicate time to yourself.  I was always "too busy" and now work out five days a week. I just work it in, like showering, eating and sleep.  I spend a lot less time cleaning.  Healthy cooking doesn't take a long time, but you do have to plan.I spend 3-4 hours per week total on food planning, shopping and cooking. Maybe a little extra for clean up.  I am not thin (about 20 pounds overweight) but not that long ago I was sixty pounds overweight.  I have had to make some sacrifices (I do no playdates or social engagements on weekend mornings, I go to sleep early if I need to work out in the morning, I say no to lunch invites if I had planned to workout, or if the group is going someplace I'd rather not eat....)  What I did is start with something manageable - 3 days a week. One day at lunch, one day before work, one day on the weekend.  And once that became part of my routine I easily added another day, then another! And I do think that little things add up...so get a pedometer, and add a few extra steps to your routine.[/quote]
