Do you think it's careless to not watch your weight?

[fonduegirl]

a lot of my peers are concerned about gym habits and diet culture... whereas I'm crazy about chocolate over butterscotch and nap times... do you think that's bad? I'm a little fat. Should I be sad about not having an hourglass figure and have garden salads? Ftr I do light exercises every once in a while and I eat very little portion of junk food whenever I can get hands on it and mom's not watching. Is that bad? I have some hipdips and well, love handles devoid of love. Think Alicia Silverstone in 80s, chubby and hot, not as much as her but then again, who is. She's impeccable.

It is careless not to watch your health.

Since muscle mass weighs about twice as much per given volume as does adipose (fatty) tissue, someone- after some initial base weight loss- can maintain a particular weight level and yet keep shrinking if they are building muscle (protein) mass and shedding their adipose (fatty) mass. So, the weight can stay the same, but the truth is in the tape, the measuring tape as their body can keep shrinking as is gets leaner and more fit.

Alicia Silverstone was fat? in the 80s?

that's news to me... wasn't she just a little kid in the 80's? lol...

[fonduegirl]

She was called "fatgirl" after she appeared in Batgirl. Media is quite mean

[NathanDavis]

oh... but that was a 98' movie or something like that, lol

but if you're saying that you have the same body as Silverstone in 1998... and you call that "a little fat"

then yes, that would be an issue

[fonduegirl]

Just picture chubby. I only mentioned her because I have a crush on her and people tell me I'm still beautiful so I'm not far gone lol

[fonduegirl]

She was called "kitten" for The Crush, which was both cute and disturbing

[fonduegirl]

My current body resembles her from The Babysitter.

[fonduegirl]

With bigger boobs

[NathanDavis]

you should worry more about your iron levels... get your blood checked, girls don't do that enough, lol

[fonduegirl]

I have iron deficiency yes

[NathanDavis]

business idea...

I'll start selling ice cream, boba tea and cheesecake... infused with Vitamin-C and iron supplements

that could save whole generations of girls...

[fonduegirl]

You're a good man, Nate

Not really. Weight is never an indicator of health. I was healthier when I was fat compared to when I was underweight. I think that obsessing over diets is more harmful, you should find joy in food instead of constantly worrying about how it’ll impact your body. No food is “bad” or “good”, everything is bad if you have too much, you’ve got to have everything in moderation 🙂

[sage2021]

Yes I do. Gaining weight can happen very quickly these days because of all of the stuff they are putting in our food in America.🇺🇸

Then before you know it, you're having to buy bigger clothes.

Thank you for the MHO 🙂

Getting on top of your weight isn't about eating salads. Basically, you are what you eat. If you like to eat chocolate and butterscotch and take naps you can't expect to keep weight off. Take up an activity that gets you physically moving. Anything!

The best thing you can do for yourself is resistance training but I get how that's not everyone's cup of tea. But do something and stick with it.

I like to run. Running has been extremely beneficial for me and pushed me to look at other physical activities like swimming and weights to improve my endurance. I'm now running marathons and am planning on an ultra.

You don't have to be as mental as I am but find a passion in a physical activity and who knows

I think it's more of a worry to deprive yourself of what you enjoy and do what you don't.
It is careless if one don't, but the choice to be careless is up to you whether it be worth it or not

[Spencer10]

Are you happy? Is your health at risk? Can your body do the things you want it to do? If the answer is yes to these questions than in my opinion who cares!

[queenofcardio]

I think it’s very easy to take our health for granted. Small improvements will make a big difference later on.

[Nikki1989]

No, not at all. If you eat healthily and stay active, everything will be fine.

[Ms_Facesitter]

It is. You only get one body. Best take care of it.

[AngryCarl3]

I mean yes but it's a matter of priorities. How much of a priority is your physical health? Probably not that big a priority when you're young.

[Starlux]

Yes! People who let themselves go is just pure unhealthy. You have to tell yourself "enough is enough and I have to lose weight".

[Maybe_Maybe_not]

Spencer10's answer?

[Still-alive]

probably yeah especially at my age :/

[Jeff51]

Take care of yourself. Watch the intake.
