BIG FAT PEOPLE!

  • Popular Post

Did I get your attention??? :P

Ok, curiosity... when I answer posts here, I am always coming from a perspective of a "food addict"

But many times I have people write back...

"But I don't have an addiction to food"

Which I always think to myself YEAH RIGHT!

Don't beat me up I'm being honest!!

What can I say I'm pessimistic, I also laugh when people say they don't eat TO MUCH so they don't understand how the are fat.. I AM FAT BECAUSE I EAT LIKE A PIG (alone mostly)

Today I thought about, "what if I'm wrong?"

I mean...I am me and I am addicted, how do I know how the next person is???

I'm curious as an addicted fat person how is it for those of you who are not addicted?

Oh and on a side note if I am wrong, then I'm also jealous because I would give anything not to have this problem (addiction)

    If they aren't addicted why do they allow it to happen? If you didnt eat too much or the wrong things and youre aware you are getting fat.. Why not just stop? If you lost all your weight why turn back

They'd have to carry the loose skin around in a box with them.

My name is Julia and I am a food addict. Done with denial. OA wasn't enough for me to overcome my addiction. However, the surgery, in combination with reading OA material, has helped tremendously - trying to work it from both angles.

Saw two bakeries today that have gone out of business. Maybe people are starting to wise up?

No the big box stores are just starting to take over. One stop shopping, a case of toilet paper and a case of baked goods all conveniently located...

Yeah that's true..It's tough to see the small operators get hammered like this though..A year ago I was right there with them, it hurts a b***h...Then I hear people all the time complain that there are no small bakeries around..WELL...go support the ones that do exist and stay out of the big guy's stores.....
