Okay, just another random thought. All these stupid, inconsiderate people that are saying things to you, are not paying attention to you. If they were they would know you have a heart. They would know that it hurts your heart to hear such things. Perhaps instead of people making random comments to you , they should try to get to know you. Then they would see you are trying to gain weight in many circumstances. Perhaps then, instead of making hurtful comments, they could be doing helpful things, like being supportive. It is my wish to believe that people are not all mean and inconsidderate. (Some are I know) I really think most of the time people are just not thinking about what they say and how it will impact others. Perhaps we should become the authority and teach them how to be civil? Please tell me what you think! C8 |

I am wondering, not out loud, already did that, but in writing. Perhaps people do not know how to say what they are thinking. "Hey, you look like you might need someone to talk to and I am here?" IN my experience, and I am as old as rocks, MOST, People are not mean. Especially when it comes to peoples feelings. I am not sure what I would say to a person that was real thin. Except, I do truly envy them. Please note, I have had a weight problem all my life. I have never been able to fit in clothes. I have even been to the point where I did not fit in chairs. I know I have a problem, and I think I was waiting for someone to help me. ( I think this is the big difference between over weight people and others.) It seems to me that people that need to gain weight are in such a strong place with their self control. I know I can do anything, but I do not know I can loose weight. I have looked at some of the diets that people are prescribed, I have never ate that way, and can not see where people would gain weight, and actually think if I had to eat like that I just might loose weight. With me Dr.'s prescribe an boiled egg for breakfast, a piece of lettuce for lunch and an egg and a piece of lettucefor dinner. Oh and any health problem, is because I am over weight. You have a cough.... you need to loose weight. Your hair is turning purple, it is because you need to loose weight.... well not that bad, but almost. I think people that are having issues with gaining weight, or maybe loosing too much weight , are such strong minded individuals, who tend to accomplish so much. The one thing I can identify with is , I do not see myself, as others do. I hardly ever look in the mirror. When I do it is just to see if I am putting makeup on okay, if I am dressed neatly. I never see me. From what I have seen and read, neither do people that need to gain weight. I am not here to offend anyone, and I do not want to hurt anyone feelings. I just really need to understand. Any comment back is good. I am hoping to loose the rest of my weight and learn how to keep it gone. Any question you might have for me. Ask away. And thank you so much for allowing me to not only read your blog, but participate in it |

This is thread has so many cool people on here. I hope nobody minds, I am over weight and wanted to see what the "Other side" looked like. I have written once before. I have lost 1/3 of my weight goal so far. I have been on my "Diet" since the begining of Feb. Nobody I know has mentioned one thing about my weight loss. I am truly lucky to have such good friends that have never said anything, but are they good friends for not saying anything? I think so, because it would have been uncomfortable to them I guess. I have read many things about the problems people have gaining weight. It seems to me that there is more out there than stuff for people that need t loos weight, stuff that makes since that is. Yes, I know if I eat a piece of lettiuce and run for three hours I will loose weight. I wonder how much we could learn from each other. If anyone is interested in having a conversation with me. Please write. I will keep looking, and I will also make sure I tell people about other peoples feelings. ZI think it is importaint for everyone to learn from each other. It make everyone better! Thanks! C8 |

I will tell you first off I am an old lady, 7,362 years old is what I tel all the kids I volunteer for. I have a 12 year old son. We bought our house two weeks before he was born. I have a group of boys that used to be 8, when I first moved it. I would pay them a nickle for each present they would wrap for my children. ( I Hate to wrap.) I have watched them go through stages. 12- 15 when they knew everything. 15-18 experimenting with life, cars, girls, other teenage things. Especially skate boards. I was always afraid some of the skinner boys would break something because they were so frail looking. Guess what, they did not. Now that they are in their twenties, not only do they not wrap for a nickel anymore, they are well built men. My son is one of the skinny boys, but not the skinniest in his group. I imagine one day he too will be a well built man. We all want something right now. Your body will do what you want it to as long as you are treating it right. With girls it seems to be different, but boys it seems to be , do some kind of exercise, and eat when you are hungry. As healthy as you can. Do not try to force your body to do something it does not want to. IF you have seen a Dr. and there is not a reason for you to be thin, then just have patients. You will get there and I bet, with your personality you have shown on here, you will be a practically perfect man! Hope this helps! C8 |

How funny you think that Mini. I have read where people that are skinny, get as many comments, or second looks as a fat person. I have always been over weight, and so is everyone in my family, except my children. Ten years ago I lost all the weight. I was so over whelmed to hear how people really talked and felt about fat people that I went into a shock and then depression. I slowly gained the weight back and really did not care for a long time one way or another. Now I care. I am loosing weight again, this time for good. I really do not care what people say, I have dumped all the people that were not supportive of me, and choose to leave behind people that feel that it is there place in the world to judge people on their weight, or other things. I think there are people that struggle with many things, and to each of us a struggle is a struggle. It does not matter what that may be. I go out of my way when I can to help as many people as I can. Can you imagine what the world would be like if we all did that? C8 |

It looks like you have two children close together. I did that. No family and still my husband works long hours, and still I have no family close by. Until my youngest was three it was a long road, not an impossible one, but at the time it sure seemed so. One thing I did have was the California sun and a park walking distance from the house. Make time for you, and I think if I would have joined some kind of a group, it would have helped also. Mommy and Me, something where you can hook up with someone that you have things in common with. Good luck! C8 |

I have never heard of anyone dieing from rice poisoning. LOL. Personally I have a friend from China, she has the same habit with her rice. IF it has anything that should be refrigerated on it, I would think differently. Even saying that makes me think of people that do not refrigerate butter or eggs. Now that is freaky to me. If you really have problems with it, I can give you a good recipe to make your own rice that you can refrigerate. ( His rice, her rice.) lol. Pleases know this sounds like I am picking on you to me, but please know, I am just giving you my opinion. I tried to make it light hearted. It is my own uneducated opinion. Good luck! |
