    She already washes them. Hate to ask her to have to put them on.

    It takes something different for to motive everyone. Some people get that moment that something hits home, congrats on losing a hundred that takes some hard work and dedication, for others its just small changes that suddenly add up to big ones without them realizing it. I'v talked to a lot of formerly obese people, a lot of still obese people, and the eating when depressed is a very big constant with everyone. I'v only talked to one person who said that fat shaming really helped them along and it was when an Ex broke up with them and pretty much spewed every fat slur at them every interaction for a few weeks after they broke up.

    My sister went to Mexico for surgery, lost a 100 and then gained it back. It's impossible for her to stop, much like a hoarder. Can't help it.

    I eat less when depressed but i dont let words depress me so fat shaming still doesnt help in my case. Ive found it's harder to get a job because during the interview they see you are over weight and assume you are lazy. I work hard at work i just dont work hard on treadmill. Yesterdays back pain motivated me to build some core muscles though, i was near tears pain all day

    Oh and this article was trash. Jounalism is just reposting tweets and placing an advertisement between tweet snap shots?

    Journalism now.

    I did want to know why she lost her job in Vegas, or left it. I'd just started watching her news channel and she disappeared. Was sad

    Hope he's really going. I'll save all the jokes that immediately pop into my mind. Been almost that big and wouldn't wanna hear them.

    I do too. Haven't seen one. I was "complaining" to my wife that all the girls at the gym have shirts with phrases on them. Makes me linger past my Seinfeld rule of a quick glance.

    One I like is "this is my backstage pass"

    Haha
