This made me LOL.  Have you ever been to a marathon?  They are some seriously HUGE people who run marathons.

And also eating at WF will not make you skinny!  They still sell all kinds of crap there.   :lol: [/quote]

Have I been to a marathon? LOL!!

I have run numerous marathons and still do even after having several children. Am a member of a runner's club and there is not a single person in the club who is overweight let alone a size 14. Sure there are those who run a marathon who are overweight because they do it as a matter of personal achievement - and all power to them for doing so.

But if you exercise regularly and eat without gorging on food, you will lose weight absent any medical issues. You can rant until kingdom come about those who are not able to lose weight because of slow metabolism, etc but that is just rationalizing. Also, you don't need to deprive yourself to keep your weight under control.

I don't count calories but estimate that I eat over 3000 calories a day because I work out. Most people who claim to eat a limited amount and yet not lose weight are way over-eating. They delude themselves that they are not eating much. Combine uncontrolled eating with a sedentary life and you will become overweight or obese.

But all of the above is neither here nor there. If you are OK with being overweight that is fine but don't delude yourself that it does not take a toll on your health, how you are perceived by others, and how it might affect your own self-esteem.[/quote]
