sometimes i am such a GIRL! if i weren't so sentimental, I'd be irritated at myself.

You know, (and since this is Alty's thread, I'm going there), I traveld down that road a while back, I guess it wasn't for me. I had given (and still do) up all hope on men, and tried my swing at the ladies. It was fun, but something just didn't feel right. I am not a person to label me slef like gay, or bi or straight, I just say I'm sexual, so that means, it is what it is.

I like it when I remind people of their friends. You remind me of someone too, just can't put my finger on it...

Labels are for canned food not people ;)

Your right. My favorite saying was, Labels only limit what I can do.

Labels also tell people the nutritional value. I wonder what my fat% would be :( booo hoooo

I actually don't own a scale in my house anymore, too much pressure. I had one of those that told you what your BMI was :eek:

It was horrible!! I would be on it everyday.. sometimes cry even. Now that I threw it away I feel 110% better.

Does anyone feel that way about scales?

They make a lovely splash after leaving the bridge at 65mph.

I sure do. I threw mine out when I got pregnant and saw that I had gained 80 lbs! Haven't stepped on one since my daughter was born 3 years ago.

I used to take Jui Jitzu, and I had one of those scales, I was obsessed with it.

As soon as I would eat, I would hop on that scale, freak out and run to the gym.

Getting rid of scales made me feel 110% too.

And clothes. Don't forget clothes.

Since I don't need washing instructions for myself, I see no reason to put a label on myself.

I hate sizes. Lol Like in one pant I'm a 3 and in another I'm a 4 and then in another I'm a 5. It gets annoying and how are you supposed to know your waist size? I went to go get pants one time and the lady is like what's your measure and I was like "Uh 38??". She laughed. I thought I was right:( lol stupid numbers.. they have to be everywhere... even in your shoes!! :eek:

Haha but we need numbers in our shoes because I'm not about to go find out how many inches or cm my feet are!

several years back I had a pair of size 6 jeans that fit. All the rest of my pants were 11-12. Now, I generally wear a size 8ish.

I actually know my waist measurement. 32. I have a pair of men's bell bottoms that fit perfectly, better than any of my women's jeans.

the small/medium/large tags are about the most unhelpful thing in the world. I have shirts ranging from x-small to large that all fit very well.

OK, this is something that's bothered me for several months now. Has anyone else noticed that women's socks went from being sized 5-9 and 9-11 to being sized 4-10. There's a HUGE difference between a size 4 foot and a size 10 foot. They can NOT wear the same size sock.

I hate you sizes! Haah how about when you go to another country?? I had a shoe that fit me and it was size 17 I was like "whhaaatt"

I went to the states recently I went to the Zoo. I ordered an Iced Cap with whipped cream on top, a small, and it was like a medium for here in Canada. I was like WHOA things are huge here. My friend got a burger and it was giant compared to Canada's slinky tinky burger.

You do know what is said about people with big feet?

I like this Chit Chat Thread... Cool one.

Scales I use one only at the doctors office when the doctor starts playing with my belly fat and telling me I need to lose some weight.

So your saying that me eating two big burgers at Mc D's is nothing compared to one big super sized big a-- burger in the states?

I have no idea what I am in American sizes, I think it's about an 8 but in Aussie sizes I'm anywhere from a 10 to a 14 depending on the brand.

I have found out in most sizes I am an 11 which most clothing companies don't make GRR
12 is usually too big and a 10 is too small DOUBLE GRR

And don't get me started on Bras :rolleyes:

Yes, do not get me started either. Women automatically joke around about me wearing bras, but I honestly do not think my man titties are big enough to wear one.

Welcome to the land of the super-sized portions.

Even our DISHES are bigger, to fit the larger portions. I have cups that were probably made in the 60's. They're tiny. Plates from then are about 2/3 the size of ones now.

Lol Joe you do not have man-boobies

And, if he thinks those little strappies are going to keep his thingamabobs from jiggling, he's got another think coming.

Yeah Ex, can you imagine him doing any jogging at all (as if he could). Seismic score: 7.5 with a lot of structural shaking...

Several years back, I saw a woman at the swimming pool that had back boobs. She was so overweight that her backfat needed it's own bra. It was disturbing.

That has to be the funniest thing I have ever heard in a long time. Laughing out loud people here are wondering what's wrong with me...

I don't have a problem with overweight people but seriously... dress appropriately for your weight!

I have a friend, I love her to death but she really needs to rethink how she dresses.
Thunder thighs do not look good in a mini skirt.

Hello again,

I LOVE this chick.

excon

See now if she wore a long baggy t-shirt over that it would be OK...

Somehow I don't think that's her plan though :rolleyes:

Suck it in, you can do it. Cheering on this girl okay well I got a video to share with you guys. This is somebody comfortable in her own skin. Let me search for it.

Lol

Hi all! Alty, I'm so glad you opened this thread! Yay! How is everyone doing?

Tired and tired and need to get some rest. Hello Enigma...

This is exactly how I feel when I'm on my period.

Haha

When I was in chicago a few years back, one of the first sites that greeted me was an EXTREMELY overweight woman in spandex pants. Her 'spare tire' had gotten so big it hung down and made an actual skirt-like flap below her waist that bounced when she walked.

Spandex is NOT for everyone.

Actually not for many... :)

Spandex is a privilege, not a right. There should be regulations keeping companies from making spandex past a certain size. Just because it looks good in a size 2, doesn't mean it'll look good in a size 22.

I say if someone wants to humiliate themselves in that way, then let them. It gives the rest of us something to chuckel at. I mean seriously, they HAVE to know better. But I have a feeling they wear them because they're too lazy to find pants that fit, it's too hard to find pants that fit, OR they just don't care anymore.

Ever hear of the term delusions of grandeur?

Yes, but the cases I'm referring to are delusions of MINUTIA! They're grand-er then they think they are.

Well I should not say this but I need to send out all my love to all these big girls.

Ever hear of the saying more cushion for the pushing?

Or that at least they are comfortable in their own skin. They should not be embarrassed.

Some cultures and past history suggests that society actually looked on beauty in a different way then we do today. That being skinny was frowned upon and being over weight actually had better merit.

Many :Many women who are way way over weight have really pretty faces. Some hide behind the weight as a way of coping about something but you know what.

Inside they are like you and me. Although I have to say I am glad I do not have man titties as big as those guys or some girls would expect me to be able to produce milk... hmmm

Anyway, would have a hard time finding a bra... Happy I do not have to worry about that but I know some men that might be better suited to wear a bra. Some really do need it...

I have no problem with someone being overweight. I have a problem with ANYONE squeezing into clothing that obviously doesn't fit. That includes a size 5 wearing size 2 pants.

It's just not attractive. There's being comfortable in your own skin. Then there's knowing how to pick the best clothing for your body type. Too small is NEVER the best choice.

Someone with broad shoulders and a relatively small head should wear v-necks, and NEVER wear turtle necks. Someone with long legs should wear a-line skirts, not pencil skirts.

Clothes that fit always look better than ones that don't.

You know, I don't have anything against overweight people in general (I'm talking VERY obese), but I do have issues with some of their behaviors when they know they are unhealthy. The main issue I have a problem with is when I work and they order these large drinks with extra chocolate and heavy cream. Or when I worked at DQ and There would be overweight couples coming in with their children that are getting round around the center and they order the kid a large blizzard, or a large sundae with extra fudge. I want to tell them, "If it weren't for my job I'd make you get a small, because you have every right to be healthy and your'e not helping yourself, a treat once and a while is fine, but you should love yourself more.". This is because I KNOW how bad it is for them, and I know they know too, and I wonder why they don't care. Especially when they have kids and they set the example for their children. People know how bad it is to be too overweight. I mean like Morbidly obese. Mostly it just makes me sad because you can see what beautiful people they are and I wonder why they won't take better care of themselves.

Although I will blame some of that on America's health care. If they can't afford to go to the doctor, they might not actually know how bad of shape they're in. Most of them have many treatable diseases that they know nothing about. And then they have a heart-attack at age 32.

It's just sad.

I made everyone go series. It is sad, and never said anybody here was against or had anything against Bigger people. There is the other side of the coin. Where people are way too thin, Not as many people talk about that though.
