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

Is that like bringing an 18 pack to AA?

That is so funny!

Hi my name is Sharon and I finally admit it.... I am an addict without a thyroid. Double whammy! I used to be one of those people that said "I don't eat much so why am I fat". Yes I don't eat as much as everyone else at 1 meal, but since I have been on this journey I have realized it is the in between that is my problem. I didn't realize how much I snack until I couldn't do it anymore. This has been an eye opening experience so far with more to come.
