To quite like being fat?

[Flumpflimpo]

There was one time that i was 9 stone. This year i am the heaviest i have ever been.

Every week for that last year i have been thinking that i must lose weight, and i have been trying every diet , and thinking about food all the time.

I was so stressed from it all that i decided to give myself and not think about dieting for one month.

I was just thinking this month, I quite emjoy being fat. Im not morbidly obese, i am fat.

I feel nice and warm and cozy

When i was thin, i rememember feeling cold and having low energy a lot.

Has anyone else felt the same?

YANBU to feel the way you feel, and how lovely for you that you are feeling more content in your body.

Absolutely embrace this feeling if contentment and enjoy some inner peace!

If you are just a bit chubby and happy then why not, enjoy your life!

ok!

I am just fed up of the constant cycle of dieting and failing

I am going to be fat and happy for the rest of the summer.

Then maybe i will try again in september.

If you felt tired when you were thin perhaps you werent eating properly, being thin doesn't mean a person feels tired anymore than a fat person

Well, it's your life OP...

I used to eat really healthily when i was thin

I just remember being really cold when I was thin, and i tired more easily.

Obiously it is nice to be thin and congrats to anyone who is.

Im just enjoying being fat for a while too.

And carrying around lots of extra weight doesnt tire you out more? I've never been fat so I dont know what it feels like, I just assumed if you are carrying around a certain amount of extra weight it would make certain things harder?

You are enjoying being fat? In this heat?

When you say 'fat' - what is your BMI?

It's bloody uncomfortable being genuinely fat. In summer you're too hot and have to contend with thigh chafing. In winter you're still too hot because everyone else has the heating up.

Being thin doesn't necessarily mean you're healthy. Make being healthy (mentally and physically) your goal, and that all starts with having good self-esteem, so I'd say you're definitely on your way to good health!

If you’re feeling happy, no one else needs to validate your feelings ❤️.
my personal opinion is that if your mobility and health are not being affected in a negative way then well if you’re happy with the way you are then so be it.

No I feel great, I have to say!

The fat brings comfort to lots of people, it’s not uncommon.

I had a brief dalliance with chubby. Not obese, but I was bursting out of my size 14 trousers. I was miserable. I felt I looked awful and I avoided being photographed and full
length mirrors. I had a moon face and a double chin. It really did not suit me.

I stopped walking around naked as I didn’t want my husband to see me (now I’ve lost the weight, he’s admitted he hated it, so it was a good thing).

I think body confidence is a great thing, but I don’t get how anyone and say they like being fat.

@Flumpflimpo personally I don’t think I could be fat and feel good about myself. Being fat for me was draining physically and emotionally. At my heaviest I was a size 14. But what I would say is after many years of dieting - I realised that dieting is not the way. It’s about creating healthy habits and whilst at first it is so so so so hard (I cannot emphasise this enough) now I barely think of it. I have been asked if I don’t feel deprived, and I can honestly say I really don’t. I eat what I want and fancy but what I notice is I don’t fancy fat foods in the same way that I did before. I’m now a size 6/8 and would never go back.

I feel great!

I have a fat friend and he said that he feels fat and happy

I know that society frowns on being "overweight" but we are all shapes and sizes.

As long as it doesnt affect your health then there is nothing wrong with it if your happy.

I hate when I add a few pounds, and feel so much better when I’m eating well and exercising regularly (I still allow myself plenty of treats too so I’m not miserable and starving myself!). But if you’re happy and feel healthy enough then that’s the most important thing.

We have yet to establish you are fat, OP, so your trumpeting about how marvellous you're feeling doesn't mean a lot. Again, what is your BMI? I suspect you'll turn out to be at the upper end of 'healthy' or at most, a stone or so overweight.

I think so too.

Well it might be ok, until you can’t fit into something you like wearing, or you are invited to an event and have to think about buying something new to wear. That’s when it becomes a complete groan.

Jesus.
Im not jump to your every demand the second that you post it.

I'm doing something. I'm at a bus stop getting on a bus.

If you can post those two sentences, you can post the two numbers that would describe your BMI.

She doesn't have to do anything, stop being a dick.
