I do not think fear is an effective motivational tool for the long term. If you hold a gun to someone's head and told them if they eat anything that has more then 100 calories in it, you'd pull the trigger....they'd turn into human rabbits. That by no means proves it's an effective method. They are doing it strictly out of fear, not the desire to change.
I know for myself that I had to WANT to change. I had to set realistic goals, and slowly achieve them. I had to force myself to hold ME accountable for my poor choices, and reward myself for my good choices. While the end result my take a little while longer....at least it's being done on MY terms. And it'll be for life.
Hell, if they want to show me in a bikini to the world...GOOD. It's about time we take these skinny women off the shelves, and show the world what real women look like. I am tired of trying to live up to the "image" of what a woman is supposed to be to begin with. Reality check! My ass is always going to be big...rather it's in style or not...because long before J-Lo, I had a big ass. My thighs will never be perfect, because I have muscular legs. I actually use them for more then standing around getting my picture taken. My boobies are never going to be "Perky, and perfect" because I am a DD and they don't make natural boobies perfect to begin with. I am going to always have stretch marks....because 80% of women out there do, and I am one of them. And ya know what....I'm okay with that. Because behind my fat **** my big thighs, and my saggy boobies is a woman who has a lot of offer the world...so if they want to see me in a bikini, GOOD. Let the world see me for what I am...and that's over weight....not who I am...because a camera could never capture that.
And that y'all is what it comes down to in the end. Change comes from loving yourself, and accepting who you are. You may not be something to everyone, but to someone, you're everything.
Sorry for ranting on and on...but this is something I am passionate about. They want to make shows to expose people who are over weight, and yet...they make no steps to help those who are over weight. They say obesity is a pandemic, and yet...every where you look you see fast food. And now a show has found the cure for weight loss? To publicly chastise, and humiliate. Blah. Let’s line all those men up, and make them show their penis's to the world. That way we can all point and laugh. Bastards!
Anywho, that just makes me mad...I need a time out.
