BitterApple October 18, 2017 Share October 18, 2017 Chelsea's lying. She had a second wedding. Unless she's really that self-absorbed and spoiled, you wouldn't have an entire bridal party just so you could take non-pregnant pictures in a wedding gown. If she did, then I hope she footed the bill for their expenses. 5 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/14538-except-chelsea-and-cole/page/34/#findComment-3732953
GreatKazu October 18, 2017 Share October 18, 2017 (edited) Normally, people are asked to be in a wedding or be part of a union celebration. They can graciously say, "No thank you" if they don't want to have to spend any money. I did just that when I was asked to be in a wedding. No one twisted my arm. I turned it down because I didn't really know the bride and groom. They were my husband's friends who lived elsewhere. I didn't want to spend over $150 for a dress I would only wear once. Now, I have spent that kind of money on a dress for dear and close friends for their wedding.

"Unfortunately it's been happening enough lately where I just felt like I had to say something." "When I was pregnant with Watson I had someone come to my door," she tweeted. "I answered thinking it was UPS or FedEx w a package." "They proceeded to touch my pregnant belly and ask me personal questions about my life." What the hell is wrong with people?

I don't think she is teaching Aubree to diet or anything like it. I know we watch these women over the years but I think it's rare for any adult (even an adult who's never had an issue with weight) to stay the same size consistently over the years. Many people will gain and lose depending on the seasons, if they are stressed out at work, financial issues (I lost 20lbs after I bought my home due to running around dealing with contractors and just not having extra money to eat out).

Christina87 October 22, 2017 Share October 22, 2017 I think it's all how in the moms approach it. My mom is very thin, and she constantly throughout my life has called herself fat, has made a huge deal about diets, and could talk about dress sizes all day. My sister decided to try one of her dieting plans one time, and it was allllllll we could talk about on this one vacation. I just wanted to scream, "SHUT UP!!!!!" I made a snarky comment or two after a particularly ridiculous amount of time devoted to the topic, and received, "oh, I can't believe you said that!!! We are doing this for our health!" Blah blah blah. I prefer to stay healthy without broadcasting it to everyone in an 100 foot radius. When I have kids, I hope to limit putting myself down in front of them, and just continue to eat well and exercise. My mom always made me feel really awkward, because I am definitely bigger than her. It felt like a veiled ad for the diet at best, a dig at worst. I'm not even overweight and I felt terrible. My mom is tiny! 10 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/14538-except-chelsea-and-cole/page/34/#findComment-3744764

Chelsea has been shown, and has mentioned on more than one occasion, her desire to lose weight through weightlifting. There were a few scenes showing her weightlifting, and she was even criticized for doing weightlifting while pregnant. She may have been on a no carb diet as well, who knows. I don't think it is wrong to teach children to eat healthy. You can teach children to eat a more healthy without mentioning to them they need to lose weight. One doesn't necessarily eat healthy to lose weight. We look at Jenelle's kids and Leah's kids who are being stuffed with all kinds of junk. That is not at all healthy and it has nothing to do with their weight.

She does need to be careful with those diets that exclude whole food groups. She was nursing at that time, and if she was working out as well, she really needed some carbs.

The worst of the anorexia is past, but he is still underweight and has dull-looking skin. 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/14538-except-chelsea-and-cole/page/34/#findComment-3760668
snarts October 29, 2017 Share October 29, 2017 Pretty sure they're aiming to add to their family soon so I don't see an issue with her wedding weight loss. Chelsea does a lot of strength training that requires energy, I can't see her becoming anorexic. I think she just wanted to look good for her wedding. 12 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/14538-except-chelsea-and-cole/page/34/#findComment-3765057

In fact I praise her for making an effort and being successful. Heck I wish someone would say I look too thin, lol! Let's look at Catelynn who never tries, or Kail that prefers surgery over doing anything healthy about her weight at the moment. Whatcha talkin' about? Catelynn counts points for Weight Watchers. She said on camera how she counted 7 points for that quesadilla dripping in sour cream and tons of cheese. lol Agree about Chelsea choosing to lose weight the old-fashion way - through hard work. Not like Kail who transfers fat to another area of her body and then lipos the rest.

alexa October 30, 2017 Share October 30, 2017 But she might be counting carbs for her particular diet at the moment. I am sure Aubrey can figure out that her mom is trying to lose baby weight and doesn’t probably think much about her counting carbs knowing she is just trying to cut back. 4 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/14538-except-chelsea-and-cole/page/34/#findComment-3766506

Yeah, I started obsessing over my weight at 7/8 because I heard female relatives discussing calories and wanting to be thin so much. Kids absorb so much more than it seems they do. It'll be hard never to mention any of that around my daughter but I'm definitely going to try. I'm especially going to try never to insult my own body around her. That left such an impression on me.

I'm especially going to try never to insult my own body around her. That left such an impression on me. I’m sorry you felt that way @Lm2162. As a fat child (I’ve been either overweight or obese since the age of 2), I do very much appreciate my fathers instance that he wasn’t going to have me hating myself. He acknowledged that teasing/mean comments would happen but that wasn’t a reflection on myself worth. I tend to think kids are far more resilient than we give them credit for- to me being fat is similar to having brown skin, it’s just a physical character trait. After a lifetime of listening to people talk about my weight (oddly though it happened MORE when I was a small child, probably because there are more heavy people now, and people probably figure since I’m an adult it’s not their business- you’d be surprised at the things people say to kids TO THEIR FACE) I wouldn’t think any mention of counting carbs, calories would have an effect on Aubrey. A calorie is a unit of energy. I think Chelsea is a pretty good role model for her regarding exercise etc, but we all look at these scenes with our personal history in mind. 9 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/14538-except-chelsea-and-cole/page/34/#findComment-3767962

I'm especially going to try never to insult my own body around her. That left such an impression on me. I never realized it started so young. I began starving myself around 16-17. But then my sons made friends with a neighbor girl who was 8 and she was so weird about food already. Wouldn't eat certain things because she was worried about being "fat", but always seemed starving when she came to our house. It made me so sad. She's just a child! She shouldn't even notice what she looks like. I've struggled with food and body image my entire adult life. I try really hard not to talk about that crap in front of ANY of my kids, but it's so easy to say something without thinking. I can't hate on Chelsea for it, but I do not think Aubree is too young to notice and I hope they figure that out sooner rather than later. 7 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/14538-except-chelsea-and-cole/page/34/#findComment-3769244

Yep, it starts younger and younger now. Even 5 year old girls in studies are frequently quoted as believing themselves to be fat and wanting to go on diets, and exposure to magazines and TV brings down girls' self-reported levels of self-esteem well before the preteen years. Of course that's not a Chelsea-specific issue. It's a cultural one. It's very sad. I do wonder how the kids will be affected not just by their parenting but by being exposed to the MTV world so early and often. I wouldn't want my kids absorbing that.

GreatKazu October 30, 2017 Share October 30, 2017 (edited) The thing is, some children can endure trauma and also suffer from issues that affect their weight. I was diagnosed with anorexia as a teen, but my issue wasn't due to any weight issues I perceived because I was already a thin person. It was due to trauma. A lot of the times young children get perceptions of how being obese is something they don't want to be because they hear and see fellow classmates who make fun of or bully of kids who are not thin. This happened to my youngest. He saw how kids tormented other kids about their weight and therefore, he decided he couldn't allow himself to gain weight. Due to his OCD, he was obsessed with not wanting to eat. Thankfully, after several months he finally stopped obsessing. Not all kids suffer from OCD, but that doesn't mean they won't harm themselves due to the actions of their peers. Plenty of children get their perceptions from the world around them no matter how much parents they try to shield them.
