[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]my mom is 60. She works out daily AND plays in a tennis league which puts her on the court 4 days a week. She has a hearty appetite. She is 5'9" tall and weighs 155. She is not scary skinny, nor is she remotely fat. She is a good 15lbs heavier than when she was 40. She's had 3 children. Just because you have gone through menopause does not mean you become fat. I see very very few women her age who are as active as she is. If you are inactive and you eat more calories than you burn you will be fat. This applies to children and senior citizens alike.[/quote]

How does she manage her full time executive career with that much physical activity? Or, let me guess, she's a SAHM.[/quote]

Uh, she's my mom. I know this is DC and all, She's 60. Her youngest child is 33..she still works a full time job. She always worked out when we were kids.[/quote]

She worked out every day, worked full time, and was a mom. Yeah, right. There aren't enough hours in the day -- unless you are really crappy at your job or your parenting.

Whatever you have to tell yourself to get through the day. There are lots of us who are moms, work full time and exercise everyday. [/quote]

This is what most successful working moms are doing. I don't know many fat out of shape Type A executives. Fat people are viewed as lazy. Right or wrong people see it as a outward sign of being out of control.

I'm up every morning at 5am. I'm exercising from 5:30 -630. I make a choice not to stay up late watching TV or trolling the internet. It's choices. and the only impact it had on my kids is that they have a fit, energetic, healthy mother (and father).

Carry on making excuses. It would make you all much more attractive if you owned your condition instead of making excuses that hold no water And then attempting to claim that because you don't take care of yourself you are somehow a superior worker or mother. It's laughable.[/quote]

Pretty cranky because of your lack of sleep and food, eh?

You sound like a peach.  [/quote]

Come on. You can do better than that. Weak and unoriginal.[/quote]
