The number overweight people at swimming today

I went swimming today with my 3 children. I am not exagerating to say that well over half the children and teenagers were overweight; some were seriously obese.

It really was noticable. Girls as well as boys. Anything from age 4 to 14.

Okay - at least they were exercising but I was really shocked.

Yeah diminish any enjoyment of exercise by your judginess! I am sure that will help get rid of the 'fatties'.

I don't like my local pool full of gas from those that are that smug they like to smell their own farts!

Why does this zombie keep being resurrected?

Let it rest in peace.

Would you judge this much if you saw a thin person sat in a fast food place. Probably not. Have no idea with the obsession of judging people who are overweight. Its disgusting. I'm pregnant and have only put weight on my bump. Have always been thin normally so my arms and legs look tiny in comparison and I can tell when I walk down the street that people are judging me.
I'll be going out less and less the bigger my bump gets. I can't help the way the weight sits on my body but its people like you that make me not want to go out

How do people even find these threads to resurrect them???

Sparklingbrook · 11/07/2017 19:03

Aww thanks squoosh. Nobody can say I didn't try. Grin

I'm fat at the moment and I already know I am. Can't you just enjoy your own body and let other people get on with living in theirs?
