Ah...your friend probably needs to do this to maintain her efforts.
My DH has health kicks from time to time and is a complete bore. He's also completely intolerant of people that moan about their weight and goes on and on about people in denial about the health conditions that are caused by being overweight.
Part of this is due to the fact he used to be absolutely huge and is now a healthy weight, another reason is that he is a HP and sees people day after day presenting with conditions whose primary cause is being overweight. Gall stones, muscular skeletal problems, heart conditions.
I get sick of his soapbox sometimes but actually, he only seems to do it when the love handles make a reappearance. It seems to spur him on.
Good for your friend for her efforts, it's not easy i'm sure. If she's a bit of a bore for a while, perhaps let her off a bit. She should nt be being rude about others though. Keep her thoughts about others to herself. I'd say don't look at her facebook for now.
Yes, i think you can be fat and happy but i dont think a person can really be happy if they are unhealthy. Some larger curvy women look great and a few curves doesn't mean someone is really unhealthy...... If you can't run for a bus, have aches and pains, don't like the way you look, then you can't really be that happy with your weight surely.
