alabetser February 19, 2018 Share February 19, 2018 2 hours ago, Ketzel said: Judging by the way she still eats, I doubt she has any insight at all into nutrition and its effects. According to her panel presentation, her goal is be healthy (specifically to avoid the diabetes that runs in her family) but at 33 she still doesn't know much of anything about what to eat or how to prepare it. And she described her basic eating pattern as eating nothing (except coffee and a few snacks) all day, until she is absolutely ravenous, and then she buys fast food or orders food in that will arrive quickly because she doesn't keep food in her house.( And we all know about the 4 different pizza apps.) If anyone has seen the BBC show "Secret Eaters" this is a common thing that rarely/never works well. They swear they don't eat all day then only eat 1 big meal and don't understand why they can't lose weight. And it turns out, while they don't eat a defined breakfast/lunch, they snack on unfilling treats all day and drink high calorie drinks which can be hundreds or even 1000+ calories, all while swearing they "haven't really eaten anything". It's not intentional but sometimes people really don't realize that every little bit counts, even if it's small. One lady cooked for her family and would taste while cooking, and even though she didn't sit down and eat the meal after, just her tasting was hundreds of calories worth of food, as much as if she had actually had a normal plate. I'd bet Whitney is the same. She doesn't see small snacks and coffee drinks as really eating so she doesn't count it, but they probably are hundred/thousands of sneaky calories. Then she is still hungry from the junk food and goes home and binges on a huge fast food meal that's another thousand calories. She doesn't think it's bad because it's only one meal, but it all adds up. The dietian on that show always recommends writing down exactly what you put in your mouth, no matter how small (insert joke here...). Even that one slice of ham or glass of juice while hanging out in the kitchen. And meal prep/schedule regular meals so you aren't tempted to rely on sugar to keep going then binge later. Planning and having healthier options available can help the vicious cycle of hangry bad food decisions. 10 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/55723-social-media-whats-up-with-her/page/60/#findComment-4070815

She reminds me of Bette Midler's character in The First Wives Club (a spectacular movie BTW). Her ex-husband married Sarah Jessica Parker who is quite thin, and Bette Midler keeps constantly cutting her down at a department store for being bony and looking like a child and being anorexic or bulimic. Finally SJP's character retorts "why don't you try this dress on IN YOUR SIZE?" and Bette's face just falls to the floor, she is so devastated and wronged and wow what a bitch SJP is, even though at that point Bette's character totally deserved to be taken down a peg for how she was acting. Whitney would be all over how someone doesn't eat enough, skinny bitch, anorexic, then if you say anything in response would cry about it.

The bigger you get, the more energy it takes to maintain basic living functions. So your resting metabolism increase. It's almost like the bigger you get, the more food you have to eat to continue gaining. Like it almost becomes a challenge to keep it up. Your stomach gets bigger, which makes you require more food to avoid hunger pangs. Also you can eat more without feeling ill. So that's gotta help. Still, in the beginning of a weight loss effort it's pretty easy to lose weight because your metabolism is so high that just putting in an ounce of effort will burn off the weight. 5 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/55723-social-media-whats-up-with-her/page/60/#findComment-4075079

Tosia February 20, 2018 Share February 20, 2018 I would like to see a show about that big lady who does yoga. Does she have videos? Seriously.

I just came out of the bathroom at work, and I noticed the doors on the stalls were kinda narrow. Room for an average sized human, though I had to fold my arms tight against me. I wonder if someone like Whitney would even fit. She must use the handicapped stalls in public bathrooms. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/55723-social-media-whats-up-with-her/page/60/#findComment-4075393

gigiann February 20, 2018 Share February 20, 2018 I think what Twitney has totally confused and twisted is the concept of not putting off things you would like to do because of your weight (or other issue you may have) and to not WAIT to finish losing weight or (?). You can do those things (ie: parasail, go to the beach, dance, etc) and NOT wait until you lose the weight. Her twist is that she is doing those things and twisted it to be....I am going to do these things and YOU will accept me EXACTLY as I am....And that is fine, we all want to be accepted for who we are. But we still recognize we have an issue that needs to be worked on and accept we are not there yet, or unable to change it....so we don't try to hold back from accomplishing things and enjoy life and not weight for those last 25lbs to depart......BUT she has taken it to another level preaching she IS capable to do things and therefore refuses to admit she should lose weight or change her eating habits. You know damn well if she could suddenly be 250lbs lighter than she is today she would GRAB that option....Just think--she could then do a back roll, walk a 5K without panting, wear cuter clothes and feel better, have some dates, not wear a cPAP machine, shave her own legs, tie her own shoes, fit on an airplane, not wear an extender when she drives, etc etc etc....You know darn well she knows these are things that will make her happier but she is so DAMN stubborn and twists shit on other to deflect off her. Am I making sense? 13 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/55723-social-media-whats-up-with-her/page/60/#findComment-4076153
Tosia February 20, 2018 Share February 20, 2018 But Twit CAN'T do those things at her current weight range 350-450 lbs., at least for more than a few seconds/minutes/ not at all. 4 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/55723-social-media-whats-up-with-her/page/60/#findComment-4076240
AZChristian February 20, 2018 Share February 20, 2018 You are absolutely making sense. Hubby and I are in our 70s. We'd found the scale sneaking up, and knew that we had to start reversing that . . . not "think" about it . . . DO IT. We started walking 5,000 steps a day a few weeks ago, with an intentional plan to move it up 1,000 steps a day every week. We are now at 8,000 steps a day . . . and just walking is so much easier. We are also intentionally eating less, and drinking more water. Weight is going down SLOWLY, but it is going down. And we have a sense of accomplishment that Twit would never understand in her current lifestyle choices. The important thing is that we are behaving intentionally to reach a goal. 18 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/55723-social-media-whats-up-with-her/page/60/#findComment-4076249

Mct76 February 21, 2018 Share February 21, 2018 Those absolutely disgusting!!! I understand and appreciate controlling weight can be difficult for some. She makes NO attempt to be healthy. She is ignorant to the fact she isn't be celebrated. She is a car wreck and people can't turn away. She does nothing to make people sympathetic of her health. It's true..."Ignorance is bliss!". She makes doing a 8k look like a fuckin marathon! When I watched it just made me angry!

How hard would it be to make a 5 second clip saying the person's name and uploading it with a wave and a smile? Why does she have to be so nasty? I could understand if it was someone who had posted "hey you fat bitch," but that's not what happened here. Someday she's going to be all alone, and she'll have no one to blame but herself, regardless of whether she's skinny or fat. 11 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/55723-social-media-whats-up-with-her/page/60/#findComment-4077365

A hundred people give her praise and she says nothing, one person says something that could possibly be interpreted negatively and she's up their ass. She needs to focus on her big fans (pun) or she will lose them. She is WAY too easy for people to troll. 10 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/55723-social-media-whats-up-with-her/page/60/#findComment-4078566
