Oh my. Reading that definitely made my stomach turn.
Sometimes I think this country is making such great strides toward healthful living being normalcy, but this serves as a reminder that we still have a long way to go.

I myself am overweight and am in the process of making changes to be healthier-whether that be the "ideal" weight for my height or just what makes me feel good, I haven't decided yet.
Being 26 and overweight is no fun, I am grateful for stores like Torrid that at least allow me to dress the way I want to and feel good in my clothes and also because I am one of the smaller sizes there so it let's me live in la la land while I'm shopping.
HOWEVER, I hate stores like Torrid because it makes it too easy to stay the same size and not care.
I guess for some people it's easier to use it than lose it-Praise the Lord that's not me! I promise myself and all of you I will never be bigger than I am right now...and in 20 pounds, I will never be bigger than I am in 20 lbs. and so on.

yes, it's scary. my company is publishing a book that talks about energy balance and cancer... basically, it says if you're overweight you have some ridiculously higher percentage of catching ANY TYPE of cancer. Scary.

i just feel like this woman can't possibly be truly LIVING. what kind of life does she have if she doesn't move, if she can't play with her kid, if she's not nurturing her body in any positive way. it's almost like she's convinced herself that that's what she wants -- why? it just makes me sad.
i'm all for women feeling comfortable and confident in themselves no matter if they fit society's standard of beauty. i HATE how many women feel inadequate and critical of themselves because they have this skewed image in their head about what they "should" be and "should" look like. but, that doesn't mean that the opposite of that basically in a kind of blind defiance of society's expectations does ANYTHING expect for hurting herself. by embracing this incredibly poor life-style, her kid will end up motherless way too early in life...it's irresponsible to her child, it's irresponsible to herself and her own wellbeing.
i just wish i could understand what the thought process behind that decision is.

I think the thought process is "Hey, I'm on the news! For eating!"
not healthy, not happy, not good, but a perfect example of American ideals at their best.
Wow, I am misanthropic.
