[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why do posters constantly rationalize and make excuses for people who are fat?

It is possible to control your weight unless you have a medical problem - and that affects only a fraction of people - but you have to adjust your intake and exercise accordingly and that applies even more so as one gets older.[/quote]

But you know what?  Any healthy eating and workout regie isn't going to work if it's just a punishment for being fat.  Why would you want to commit to not eating certain things, or hitting the gym, if every one of your choices (broccoli instead of rice, heading to gym) is just a punishment?  Why would you a stick to a program that just makes you feel terrible?  I've been pretty overweight myself and got a lot of criticism from my family and it never helped.  What helped is to decide to do things because I love myself, and not because I hate myself.  It's hard to get to a point where you want to change your habits if someone makes you feel like garbage all the time.  I go to the gym because i'm excited to go, not because of some perceived flaw in my body.  I eat well to fuel my body, not because i am too disgusting to eat fried foods.   This is why her DH's comments, and your idiotic statements, are mean and pointless.[/quote]
