One of my co-workers thought it was absurd that an airline would charge an obese person for an additional ticket if they were deemed "too fat for just one seat." I just don't think it's fair to be the person next to them...being infringed upon...spilling over into my seat! If I paid for one seat, that's all I should get!
BTW, she has since lost about 50 pounds (the Subway diet) and has come to the realization that she won't lose much more without exercise! Yaay for her for seeing the light!
Staying on topic though, diet has such a negative connotation to it...I prefer to say meal plan because that is just what it is! Your "diet" is what you eat, not just neccesarily a "strict eating regimen."
...just read this shit:
"Unfortunately, Steadham says, many doctors neither acknowledge that it is possible to be "fit and fat," nor that for most overweight people, keeping weight off long-term is often a losing battle."
...fit and fat! WTF! Maybe it's possible, but I think it's better (for me) to be fit and healthy! Sheeesh!
