I just feel like bitching about a few things that piss me off...
1.) Why is it that in newspaper restaurant listings, the "healthy dining" section is filled with only vegetarian restaurants?? You know, the places that serve things like refried bean burritos, veggie pot pies, soy cheese pizzas and other "healthy" items like 7-layer chocolate cake and muffins...
2.) Fat Pride. The people who walk around like "I'm big and lovin it...I'm not fat i'm voluptuous..this is what real women look like..etc. etc." These are the same people who advocate equal rights for the obese..such as not having to pay for 2 plane tickets just because your ass needs two seats..or claiming that public establishments discriminate because their chairs are too small. (One guy actually wrote a letter to the owner of the Olive Garden franchise because he couldn't fit in their chairs). I wish these people would just shut up...people aren't judging you because of the way you were born..it's not the same as racism or sexism...people are judging your disgusting, gluttonous lifestyle. The reason models are so thin is because that is what is attractive...biologically, people are attracted to people who look HEALTHY. sometimes, beauty isn't in the eye of the beholder, it's just standard. Unfortunately, obese IS the way the average American looks, but that doesn't mean that's the way it should be or that's what the media should promote.
3.) Women who are afraid to lift a weight because they think they'll get big, bulky muscles. How dumb can you BE?? I WISH this was how it worked.
4.) Guys who complain about having to fit in ALL their meals and calories during the course of a short day *ahem* you know who you are....I feel SO bad for you...lucky me, I only have to eat 200cals every 4 hrs.
5.) People who struggle to find the "right" fad diet..."should I buy the south beach diet book? or the atkins book? or the zone?? Or should I join weight watchers?? Right now, I eat everything in sight, and sit on my ass all day, so I need to find the PERFECT diet or else I won't lose weight" HELLO...just stop eating like a pig and start moving around...or geez, I know this is a tough one...go online and find out what healthy food is ( I still can't believe people actually are ignorant enough to not know whether it's better to eat a fried chicken sandwich or an apple, but they're out there)
6.)Dieters who proudly announce " I only ate a bowl of cereal, a salad w/fat free dressing and 4 egg whites today! AND i did 5 hrs. on the treadmill, and lost another 5 lbs (of MUSCLE) this week! yay!" Unfortunately, my mother is in this category..she doesn't listen to me.
