Jean,
Thanks for the encouragement. Sometimes we do stupid things and use really wrong methods to accomplish goals. Hate to see people taking drugs to loose weight too. The only way to lose is regulating your diet, lots of fresh air and exercise. I love to dance and exercise to music, it makes it so much more fun and picking out the music for them is great. Thanks and God bless.
Good for you.You sound young so it is good to continue working on your weight without purging or laxatives as so many young people do. Just eat what you want in moderation.
@Jean
No. I was but have lost and feel terrific now. I walk and dance and will be getting a bicycle next month. I was guilty of an eating disorder in high school, eat and purge so I could stay at 105#. Messed me up royally.
Now I have a healthy fruits, veggies, and lean meats. Still have a bit to go but my incentive is my health.

it takes a lot of big macs to get that big.regular groceries would cost them less. i can see at least 2 deadly sins in this pic. sloth and gluttony. they are that big because they are too lazy to cook and buy the correct foods.
I am overweight, and not because of lack of money. I’m over weight because I’m overweight, plain and simple, but I do not look that way. There are some people out there who have metabolic reasons for being that size and it has nothing to do with money. But then, I look at a couple who drive around town on scooters and in their vehicles, and they are obese because they chose to be obese, and don’t want to lose the weight, they chose to be obese so the state can pay for everything. I have a neighbor who bragged in school that his life goals was to live off of state aid, get married, have children, and have a wife support him the rest of his life. So as for jumping on those who pick on fat people, get over it. YOu don’t like it, make a difference or learn to cheer up.
I have had problems with money and could not spend alot for food, but I still never looked like that. Maybe if they would walk more, or ride bicycles, they could be healthier. Maybe they could eat less mac & cheese. Whatever their problems are, no one puts a gun to their heads and makes them eat and eat and eat so they become 100 pounds overweight. Then when they become diabetic and have high blood pressure, it will be taxpayers who pay the bill.
THIS I CONSIDER TO BE OVER THE EDGE ON CRUELTY. BEING HEAVY IS NOT HUMOR NOR IS IT CORRECT TO MAKE FUN OF PEOPLE IN ANY WAY. DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA HOW IT IS TO HAVE TO EXIST ON “AFFORDABLE” FOODS LIKE MAC & CHEESE? SOME OF US DO NOT HAVE MONEY TO BUY FRESH VEGGIES, STEAK, AND THE LIKE AS YOU DO. WE BUY WHAT WE CAN AFFORD AND IT IS NOT THE BEST, BUT WHEN YOU ARE POOR YOU MAKE IT STRETCH.
