[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't care how celebs get healthy. Their medical history is not my business. Now if they try to make money/get press off of some fake fitness routine that is pretty low. I am annoyed in that that I am trying to lose weight the old fashioned way and if I do, I wonder will folks quietly assume I took a drug? I'm proud of my routine right now and would like some genuine compliments when it starts paying off![/quote] I have seriously mixed feelings about this. On the one hand, your hard work is bringing you a result you like and pride in your discipline, and I think it would be perfectly appropriate for you to get compliments for those things. (Well done, btw!) On the other hand, I think there are folks who believe that weight loss somehow doesn't count or is less helpful to the person losing weight if there isn't suffering involved. Attaching virtue to weight is hugely problematic. Only after my wife started taking these medications did she realize just how different a body's signals could be surrounding food and hunger. I wasn't disciplined and she wasn't weak. My body and mind just send me wildly different signals about food than hers does in the absence of medication. The insistent demands her body was making were feeble requests in my body. With the medications, it's an entirely different playing field and has nothing to do with discipline or virtue. [/quote]
