I am a plus size beauty *wink* and I do look after myself. I watch what I eat, I have lots of fruits and veggies and I read the labels on food to know the fat and calorie intake. I'm not lazy either. I go to the gym 4 days a week and I care about how I look and present myself. Most of all, I pride myself on being a caring, open minded and happy go lucky kind of gal.
So why all the negativity people???!!!

Honey, you have the right attitude. Now all you need to do is become comfortable with YOU. Once that is done, your confidence will overwhelm "them".... and it will go away.
If it does NOT, then to HECK with them all...
Be comfortable with your self and you will be happy... I personally dont care what people think. They dont feed or clothe me, so to hell with them...

Being overweight is something every one of us may become, and because people are living in fear of being overweight, that fear is projected onto others as negativity. I too believe that most, not all, but most overweight (overweight meaning at least 50 lbs overweight) americans are lazy, with little to no self control. Regardless of what is believed, food is not necessary everyday. And the foods we eat are usually loaded with crap that cause us to add weight.
Are you actively trying to lose weight? I lost almost 100 pounds during 2001-2002. It was difficult. Drink lots of water, and only eat when you are truly hungry, not when bored, or when others are eating, and dont snack while watching a movie...

If you looked after yourself you wouldn't be a plus size !!!! You watch what you eat ??? Watch it go into your mouth or what ? Reading the labels and knowing the calorie intake doesn't mean that you eat healthy !! I can eat the whole damn box of twinkies after reading the amount of calories on the back of the box. It doesn't mean crap !!! Here's a simple solution for you................... Burn off more calories than you take in !!! A 6,000 calorie a day "diet" doesn't mean crap if you go to the gym 7 days a week.

Same reason they think white people cannot dance. That is the nature of the human animal.
My question back is Do you have something to prove? It sounds like you are on the right track with your actions, now just quit trying to show the world something and continue on your own path doing what you know to do. I am short fat and bald. I do not care what they may assume. I am me, I will continue to be me, and there is nothing any of them can do about it. If they want to talk about me over the dinner table, so be it, I only hope they enjoy it.

In our society, we are very body conscience and we equate overweight with a negative image. I'm sorry but that's the way we are in this country. Now in Europe, it's a completely different story. People are not as conscience and seem more accepting of different body styles. I'm sorry you have to go through alot of stereotyping but we all have something, mine is my height. Height & weight are two things that people can see readily, just remain positive!

Most fat people don't take care of themselves and eat everything in sight and are lazy, but there are some fat people that just have thyroid problems and other problems like that!!!!!
