As snarked on: reality blurred
As the wisdom of my words come back to haunt me:
But some people complain to the paper that they can’t do all of that so they don’t lose weight. Well, duh.“You watch it because you want to know the secret. But the reality is, you can’t. So why bother? Everybody in the real world seems to have the same consensus: nobody has that much time to dedicate to losing weight,” Renee Peters says. She’s the host of a discussion board called the Fatfighters, and says, “I find myself in the beginning of every season raring to go. But then they’ve lost 70 pounds and I’ve only lost 5 in the same time frame, and I find myself eating ice cream.”
Watching TV and eating ice cream instead of exercising, or a reality TV show: I wonder which one is actually to blame for her lack of weight loss.
For the record, I don't need an excuse to eat ice cream. It just makes watching people exercise that much more exciting. Plus I didn't "blame" the show for my lack of weight loss, but now that Andy Dehnart wants me to assign blame, fine. I blame him!

It amazes me that fat remains the one physical attribute that it is not taboo to snark on or pick on. It's so acceptable and even ego boosting to lay out to a fat person why they're fat. Like we don't see ourselves in the mirror everyday. Like we don't feel every lb as we step out of bed everyday. If we had no people to tell us we were fat, and why, I wonder how much farther we'd go, how much more encouraged we would be? If we did not wear our issues and insecurities on our outsides, I wonder what people would pick on.
I hope that guy is a buff, physically fit Mensa member. Otherwise he doesn't have any room to talk.
