[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For a lot of people (especially perimenopausal/menopausal women) it is. It’s because rather than being where their body is most comfortable and they can eat normally - which is probably a size 8-14 - they will do WHATEVER IT TAKES to stay as skinny as they were in college or whatever.[/quote] OP. That's a really good point. At 47, I guess this is where I might be. Size 8 feels shameful to me, weirdly. I want my 6s to be comfortable. Accepting that I'm past the size 4 stage where I was in my 20s...at my age, I think too skinny doesn't look good.[/quote] You are 47 and still starving yourself to be thin? No one cares or notices what a 47 year old woman looks like. So you are starving yourself to just..see a certain number on your pants when you get dressed in the morning? [/quote] No need to look like 2000era Kate moss but resembling oval shape will push women out of highly paid jobs.[/quote] My boss is a very unattractive overweight lady who managed to make a very quick career, is highly respected and keeps proceeding up the ranks. So I guess, if you are really smart and personable you can beat the odds.. [/quote] Are the odds on your side that: Exercise to remain fit and score a job where people perceive you to be “not lazy”. Or, Be born as brilliant as your boss who won the genetic lottery. Take your pick.[/quote]
