I'm FAT .... are you?

[Tina]

I've never really been that small but I believe I was always a good size. When I was in highschool I was a fairly good size. Of course I didn't think it then. But I do now.

No, I am not going to blame it on having two kids. It is my fault I could loose the weight, I could exercise if I wanted to, no I am just plain lazy! I know I need to start eating healthier but I don't always. I don't eat alot of junk food like chips, cookies, cakes and such. Burgers,Pizza, Tacos, and stuff like that is what puts the weight on me. I don't hardly exercise at all unless I take the dogs for a walk or something.

I am 50 pounds over weight maybe more. Oh, how I wish I could get back to the size I was before I got married. I could kick myself in the butt now, thinking I was fat back then.

Heck I lost a bunch of weight after having both of my kids but I put it back on because I didn't want to do anything.

I guess I am comfortable with my weight but not a whole lot. That is why I need to get my butt in gear and start working on loosing some pounds.

im thin and dont care about the size of my friends. thats not why i am friends with them , also with boyfriends; their weight doesnt bother me.

I have been FAT! and I have been average. (I have NEVER been thin!) But I am TALL and I too get amazed looks when I tell them my weight.

When I was fat (size 24 to be exact) It did not really bother me socially. Love me or leave me, it never mattered. But my biggest fear was a diagnosis of diabetes(sp?)

Now I am a size 12 to 14 ( you know womens' clothes, nothing is ever cut the same way). I have a pot belly and huge thighs, but I am ok with that.

I have never liked the way I look whether fat or thin.

This thread has been so good to read, and infact inspiring to me, i have never been comfortable being overweight, because I don't look large and hide my weight as best I can, I always get the comments, your'e not fat, and that really bothers me, because damn it I am overweight, by about 20 pounds, and that is a lot of butter to be carrying around.

I prefer density challenged. I've got a job that goes through periods of high stress. During those times I more or less live off of vending machine food. I was really starting to feel bad, so the last 3 mos I've really committed myself to eating healthier and exercising. I've made a dent, but still have a ways to go, but I feel so much better now. No more headaches, indigestion, back aches or joint pain. When I go out to agility with Oz now, I feel faster and less winded. My ultimate goal is to be a blur of speed out there with him. Oh and of course being a healthier me too. Have I mentioned what a competitive person I can be?

I think I could loose a few pounds! If you don't eat junk food, and exercise regualy (sp?) then you will loose weight.
