[quote=Anonymous]I am 30lbs overweight, but exercise daily and try to eat right. I gained quite a bit of weight due to surgery and have been trying to get back down to my old size. I've lost 13 pounds. But guess what? I'm awesome. I eat well, I have energy, I run 3 times a week, and I am confident. Those are things you might not automatically see when you see me at 30lbs overweight. And honestly, I can teach kids that at all sizes, you can make good health choices. My mom and my sister were predisposed to being EXTREMELY skinny. They never had to work at it. I, however, have to work at it (got my size from my dad's side). I wasn't taught how to eat right, exercise, etc. because no one in my family ever had to. I feel like that has a lot to do with why I struggled with weight early on. So I eat much healthier and exercise more than my skinny friends. I understand eating "whole" foods as opposed to eating a lean cuisine everyday and calling that healthy. These are all things you are not taking into consideration when you hire your "skinny" nanny. [/quote]
