41- that's upsetting to hear.

It should be upsetting and motivating to get out and take care of yourself... Over 50% of americans are overweight... Thats upsetting...

You shouldn't judge anyone by their size! It's people like you who make girls feel worthless in our world, thus having higher suicide ratings. Everyone is beautiful on the inside and out so don't be such a hater. Beauty comes in different shapes and sizes.

Are u for dumbass? Hardly beautiful on the inside... Its called heart disease, shorter life span etc... Basically irresponsible... If ur such a coward as to look at urself in the mirror and wanna off urself instead of taking care of the prob then peace out... I bet ur a fat ass too... Take my advice, jog, eat a balanced diet and lose weight, dont cry to me about self esteem with that cheeseburger in ur hand

Because you know, a diet and exercise totally works for everyone. Maybe in fantasy land but not in the real world. Sure it works for some people but you can't beat your genetics. Girls can be bigger and still be damn sexy. I'm 185 and gorgeous and get told that all the time by different people so obviously there are bigger girls that are sexy. Now a 300lb woman not so much, but you can still be somewhat fat and look good.

You are hilarious. Just because someone is fat it doesn't mean they have heart disease they can be healthy for all you know but controlling their weight is just difficult. Not everyone has a fast metabolism. You should be ashamed of yourself and calm your *******. Just because someone is beauitful aka skinny outside doesn't mean they have a beautiful heart.

Well said!!

You're heartless, I like that.

Yeah there are some fat chicks with cute faces and wonderful personalities, those are the one's you say **** why aren't they skinnier. Or give them a free gym pass.

Whats hilarious is someone like u thinking obesity is healthy... But talking to and uneducated meager minded idiot is useless... Lets blame genetics, of course lets not take responsibilty for our uncontollable hand reaching in the fridge and not exercising... Poor u... And sry but physical beauty is a factor and the majority does not find obese people physically attractive, its a sign of laziness and an unhealthy individual...not to mention it causes my eyes discomfort... U dont want people starrin and not datin ur fat ass then do something about it... Stop blamin everyone else for prob...

I never said it was healthy and genetics does play a role. You can eat healthy and bust your ass in the gym and not lose weight because of your genetics. After 4 months eating nothing but healthy and working out, I lost 25 lbs. I continued to eat healthy and work out for the next 2 and didn't drop a single pound. No matter what I did, I couldn't get below 175. It wasn't that I was lazy and stuffing my face, it was genetics. Sure lots of people blame genetics when it's their own faults, but some people are actually affected by genetics.

U need to try harder. 175 is fat. Fix it

Here is another tip. Take a field trip to say europe... Notice how thin the population is compared to the U.S. In fact travel just about anywhere else and compare... I guess we have the worst genetics in the world... Literally...

Thanks 188. When I get my plastic surgery I'll be sure to let you know. My fiancé is a personal trainer and a bodybuilder so he can tell you I worked my ass off and nothing changed. Not to mention he thinks I'm sexy and can't keep his hands off of me so obviously fat girls can be attractive. It's not just "work harder" it's my body will not lose any more weight. Both my dad and his mom are the exact same way. They can only lose so much before their bodies stop. There is a gene linked with being fat and getting diabetes. I'm sure our genetics are a little different than those of Europeans as well as our lifestyle and that contributes to Americans being bigger than Europeans. But hey, at least one day I can get a tummy tuck. You can't fix your shitty personality though.

163, your lifestyle determines your weight.. Not just your diet. If you don't adopt the diet and workouts into your lifestyle or find one that keeps you healthy to begin with then you will be overweight no matter what you do

Tnglator: you have a point. A lot of Americans are lazy. More people are playing video games and eating nasty, greasy foods injected with BHT hormones. But the other people that commented have a point, too. Like the unicorn-chick (sorry, forgot your name) said, genetics DOES play a big role. Not saying you should not even try to be healthy, just that some people are going to be bigger. A lot of people don't think about the fact that bone structure has a lot to do with it. Bigger bones=bigger body (more to love!). The thyroid is another factor that affects weight. 175 or 185 would be too big for me because I'm short with smaller bones, but it may be perfect for her because she may be tall with bigger bones. A 5'10 girl shouldn't be my weight: that would be gross. Good health is something I'm passionate and knowledgeable about, and believe me when I say there is more to it than what some may think. =)

I sense my 175lb hottie was upset by her lengthy, harsh reply... Im sure a candy bar will fix everything...

hell yeah, that is so true!
