Ignorance is bliss, as they say

>on dinner with family
>male and female cousin there
>he's skinny, she's chubby
>"No matter how much I eat, I never gain weight"
>"Eat more" I tell him
>"Sometimes it's just genetics, you can't change it", chubby cousin tells me
>"That's not true, cuz"
>"Yes it is", says skinny cousin
>"No it's not, just count your calories"
>"Like I'll sit and count calories like a woman"

Over here, counting calories is frowned upon.
Once a friend of mine found out I did and started rambling about how doing that makes you a sissy, which I didn't give a fuck about but it surprises me how the general public is totally ignorant to how their own body works.

Girl science

>bf use to be hamplanet; now lost over 150lbs (back at her high school weight)
>looked up to her and my other bf and started to seriously lose weight
>lost so far 92lbs but I have at least 50-70lbs to go before i'm at mirin' stage
>other friend is very nice smart girl but total hamplanet (350lbs and 5'9)
>constantly goes on this fad diets that always fail
>bf constantly tells her to just cut calories and exercise and she'll drop the weight
>fatass friend always complains that it's not the "fast way to lose weight"
>bf lost 150lbs within 1 year by becoming a vegeterian and exercising at least 2-3 hours a day
>fatass friend complains about how fat she is but never does anything about it
>fatties gonna fat

All women hate each other.

I've been far more open about people's weights before, and my own (I dropped 200-120)

anyway, this one sticks out. I had a friend who was 5'1 and 180lbs with a HUGE chest. 40lbs mush have been on her chest alone.

>go out to dinner one day, I have sushi, she has pork fat
>she has recently dropped out of uni because the work was hard
>"So, anon, what about that A cup huh?"
>"Got a sports bra yet?"
>"I heard you're getting LASIK next year, thought about the boob job instead?"

And I respond...

>"I suggest not talking about someone's lack of breast when I could do the exact same about your IQ."

I now avoid them pretty rabidly.

Family Ties

>Go on a diet
>Cut from 235 pounds to 198. I gained so much weight due to my bulking up during powerlifting.
>Family is impressed, will also go on a diet.
>Call them up this week.
>They don't want to go on a diet anymore.

I just... sometimes, I don't know. I'm not disappointed, I just know that they judge themselves on their looks. I feel bad for them. Mind you, they aren't hugely overweight, or even moderately - they just wanted to lose several kilos.
