[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As a formerly morbidly obese woman, let me provide some actual real answers from a former fat girl....

1.  Every fat girl will tell you that she is starting a diet, trying to eat more healthy, starting a new way of life, doing better about eating healthy.

This is a constant fat girl refrain usually occurring right especially after a good day of binging.

Of course, what OP didn't mention is that she restarts this plan every single day with little to no progress.  She might be able to go one, a few days even or if she is really good maybe for a few weeks but that's it.

2. Fat girls binge.  How else do you think they maintain 300+ lb body weights? They can't maintain that kind of weight eating healthy.

3. Fat girls who say they are "foodies" are seriously delusional and use it that as an excuse so they can continue to overeat. A morbidly obese person does not need the hobby of eating. They need a hobby that does not involve food or eating. Everyone likes to eat good food.

4. Fat girls who say they don't like sweets and don't eat that many are wrong. What that really means is they may only eat 8 to 10 cookies at a sitting and eat two large things of French Fries. See to them relative to the fries, they really didn't eat that many cookies. They also don't get that normal weighted people do not view 8 to 10 cookies as a reasonable serving size to eat on an everyday basis.

5.  Truly morbidly obese fat girls are pretty much wasting their time going to the gym.  They are better off devoting their energy to eating right and avoiding binging.  They will lose weight without exercise for quite a while. This is not true for those who are closer to normal weights.

6. Fat girls go have stink as noted above. Yes, they have chub rub and lots of sweat and there is an odor.  They may not notice it themselves though. I admit it was only random that I figured it out.

7. Fat girls are not necessarily more lazy but they are more tired. It really does take quite a bit of effort to heft around 300 + lbs of body weight so even normal activities can leave a fat girl tired and winded.

8. Fat girls lower their standards in terms of dating.  I did it for a long time and all other fat girls I know do it too.  Same for husbands.

9.  I agree with a PP, surgery is the best option for the morbidly obese. That's how I lost the weight and in the 8 years since surgery I have never once regretted it. [/quote]

Um... my idea of a binge is eating most of a pint of B&Js on the first day of my period... once a month.  I don't eat fast food, takeout, fried food, or many carbs, have not had a donut, etc. in years, or cake or soda other than at a party.  If we go out it's usually sushi.  I map Chipotle when we travel so I won't get stuck with regular fast food, and get a salad, not a burrito.  My diet is mostly the so-called superfoods, prepared from scratch, heavy on the veggies for all three meals. I snack on veg, fruit and nuts and have a couple of drinks per week, max.  Your comment about two large fries made me throw up a little - that stuff makes me queasy.  It's a nonfood of last resort.

When I talked to a dietitian, she pointed out that I need to eat more calories to bump up my metabolism.  I can't figure out how.  I don't want to eat crap or stuff myself.

And yes, I'm a foodie.  Quality and taste are important and that means LESS food, not more.  This isn't something I've been doing for a short time.  It's the way I was raised and live all the time.

I weigh 235.  Go ahead.  Tell me it's the Ben & Jerry's.  [/quote]
