Can we handle a Fat Tuesday vent?
Or will the board just implode?
The receptionist at my office drinks a giant calorie-laden Starbucks iced somethingerother every morning. And she eats french fries with lunch every day. She is thinner than I have ever been. I hate her so much for this.

Is she young? Her thin days are ending....

that's so lousy. some people have all the luck.
My fattie vent is twofold. One: According to my docs scale this morning, I've gained 7 pounds in two weeks. Someone tell me my jean jacket weighs 5 of those. Two: as if my workplace weren't the devil's barcalounger already, the mini fridge where I must keep my lunch is ON THE FLOOR and hell hath no fury like a large pregnant woman who is forced to pick her lunch up off the ground.
I vote for this.
Why you ask this AFTER I eat my cookie? Or in mem terms
Y U NO Wait. I eat my cookie.
Yes. But I am jealous because I never had the young skinny days!

My mom told me yesterday she's never seen me as big as I am now. It really hurt my feelings, but not enough for me to put down the Dr. Pepper and back away from the chips and salsa.
Do you know what else she eats?
My med school bff eats like crap. Like I don't think I've ever seen her eat a complete meal with veggies. She eats candy, drinks coke everyday and likes sweets in general. She always comments how I eat sooo healthy which I think is funny.
She's way smaller than me. However, I think that really what she eats doesn't add up to a lot of calories even if it is all junk. I love her to death, but I'm sure it'll catch up to her eventually health-wise.
I'm happy being slightly overweight, in shape and a healthy eater. I wouldn't change that to be skinny and unhealthy.
No. But as a fattie, it's just frustrating to see someone eat that everyday and not gain massive amounts of weight. I would be so much fatter than I am now!
Also, it doesn't help that I'm really craving a mocha frappuccino, but I have zero business having that much sugar right now. So I hate her doubly.
That may be all she eats.

Life isn't fair.
Get over it.
I put that as nicely as I could manage.
Also, this. Maybe she has hideous feet or ingrown nails or stomach ulcers or debilitating middle-of-the-night leg cramps or etc.
There's always a trade-off; being skinny isn't everything.
Updated September 2012.
Maybe its nonfat, fake sugar, blah blah blah.
Or she does meth.
LOL.
Please no. I cannot handle losing another receptionist!
DD #1 passed away in January 2011 at 14 days old due to congenital heart disease
DD#2 lost in January 2012 at 23 weeks due to anhydramnios caused by a placental abruption
Hmm well maybe you should try a french fry and fappuccino diet only and see what happens
That'd be like what, 800 calories? I'm sure you could lose some weight...and also be pretty unhappy! Some people have good metabolism....and that could also come with lots of clogged arteries and health problems. You just never know.
This is the truth. It wasn't until I told this to myself and made myself believe it that I was able to get over the fact that other people can stay skinny while eating shiit and I gain weight just by breathing in oxygen. That's just the way I was made. *cue Lady Gaga's Born This Way*
<a href="http://www.thenest.com/?utm_source=ticker&utm_medium=HTML&utm_campaign=tickers" title="Home DWell, if my fake doctor ordered it...
Yes! I'll bet she has crotch rot.
LOVE IT. LOL for real.
It's why I had to quit going to WW meetings. I just wanted to shake everyone and tell them to shut up! Either you want to do something about being fat, or you don't. Simple as that.
LOL
Add to the order a beer for dinner. That'll take you to 1000 calories and you'll be good to go!
I don't think any drink I've ever gotten at Sbux has ever had more than 130 calories. Most are under 100. But I always get it nonfat / light / both, so she might be doing the same.
In re: the fries, they're kind of my weakness, too, but I can't really eat them all that often without the gallbladder. And I know if I DO have them, it'll be a gigantic salad for dinner to balance it out.

Here we go.
::gets out buttered popcorn::
Mmm, butter.
Wait. What?
LoL, I'm not trying to start anything with that comment, but it comes down to deciding you want to lose weight and then doing that.
There are plenty of people who haven't decided that, that go to WW (I've been that person, I get it).
But not wanting to do it, and complaining about how you're not losing weight to a room full of people, is annoying.
Also, maybe her starbucks is fat-free.
I really hate the posts where people are like, "I bet she's bulimic!". Dude. Do you want people looking at your salads and saying, "I bet she secretly binges on cupcakes!" ?
