[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. I was a college athlete from a family of athletes with a dietician mother. I was never really around overweight people until I began my career and my job is to help people lose weight and get in shape. I understand that once you're at a certain point it is difficult to lose the weight and I also understand how much the extra weight can inhibit your life. That is my greatest motivation to keep myself lean and healthy. I don't want to lose my breath walking up stairs or chasing the kids. I don't want to stress about my dress for my sisters wedding. I don't want to stress about heart attacks, heart disease, or anything else that would take me away from my kids early. By the time I begin interacting with overweight and obese people we have a huge journey ahead of us. I'm just wondering how it gets that far before someone tries to catch it. It's truly not a judgement thing. It's about understanding so I can help my clients better. [/quote] Oh, goody fucking two shoes for you, OP. you're using all the fatties as your thinspiration? You don't really want to understand your clients better, you want them to understand how repellant and inhuman they've allowed themselves to become. You don't really understand what it is to do everything right (and pick a philosophy, because no matter how "right" your fatty client is in eating, someone or some philosophy is always bellowing about how they're doing it wrong) and lose no weight. You don't get what it is for your fat to be hanging around you like some hair shirt of shame. For your fat to shake painfully and judgmentally, tallying all your food sins, as you exercise? For clothes to look wrong, all the time, whether you buy them big, small, have them tailored, or make your own. To have the arms of your office chair dig delicately, constantly into your sides. And you, with your college athlete, dietician, and, I'm guessing here, food not laden with emotion family purport to want to understand better? It's called empathy. Read a few fat blogs. Better still, re read your original post and really parse it out for how disgusting you think the overweight and obese to be. And then know that your fat clients already feel bloated and disgusting. And your judgement, I'm sorry, your desire to understand, is bleeding through your faux concerned expression.[/quote]
