THis is excatly the sort of reason why we never should've let Hitler win in the first place.

The obese can suck it and lick it and eat it and otherwise indulge in it to an extent that the rest of us find offensive and somewhat silly.

Scope out the dessert table, find the one dessert you truly like BEST, and have a piece. Indulge it to the hilt. Then quit.

If it's the sort of place you can take stuff to go back to your own office, take some other stuff if it tempts, and keep it for another day's dessert. Keep tupperware in the office for that reason.

Constantly eating a little of this, a little of that, limiting only to the low-fat fake desserts, you just end up unsatisified and eat more stuff you don't really like. At least, seems that way to me.

Decadence in limited amounts beats "diet" or "health" food anyday. Screw the "low fat cheesecake" and your carob chip cookies.

Indulge in the inner spirit of the holidays, not the eating. Focus on spending time with friends and family. When faced with food temptation, use portion control.

What a dumb article. If fat people could do this stuff at all, they'd be doing it all year rather than thinking about it during the holidays.

Maybe if the women didn't try to fill the table with every major food group and a few of the minor ones, there would be no temptation. Just have a simple Christmas dinner, like a few cans of pork n beans and some beer.

Decadence in limited amounts also keeps you from feeling sorry for yourself, which is helpful in controlling portions. No "poor little me" mentality. And eat that one favorite thing slow, so that it lasts awhile. And keep up the exercise.

During the Holidays I cut out solid food completely and instead survive solely on a diet of 7&7's.

Are you Asian, or maybe Native American? Becuase that sentence would make so much more sense if you were.

go out and shovel then run for 4 miles. It will knock out anything you eat, or kill you. Win/win.

Or, their friends/relatives have driven them to the "compulsive drinking" thing.

Because a fattie never feels doubt or any kind of self judgement while sitting home alone packing it in.

Boo hoo, I feel bad for eating too much! I hope people don't see me eating!

God I hate it when fat people don't like to eat in public. As though only eating a salad at the work party will show your co-workers that you aren't REALLY fat, because hey I'm eating a salad! Oh I don't want to be the first one taking food because they'll think I'm a greedy fatty! farking give me a break.

Everyone can see you're fat, you aren't fooling anybody with a salad. Just eat already. If they don't like seeing you eat in public then tell them to suck your dick, you're eating cheesecake. This is coming from a fellow fatty here folks, life is much simpler if you don't care if people think you're OMG fat, or ugly, or stupid or slutty or weird, or whatever.

It's funny really, I made something like that in business class called The Beach Buddy(TM). It was for those...unfortunate souls who were bigger and didn't have someone to apply suntan lotion on.


I should sue....

If you're too fat, eat a healthier diet and exercise. All this "save sh*t in tupperware" bollocks is bollocks.

Gyrfalcon [TotalFark] 2008-12-20 10:26:58 PM  
If you're fat because of psychological problems, then you're gonna be fat until you deal with your psychological problems. If you're fat because you love to eat, then you're gonna be fat until you learn to exercise. And if you're fat because you're lazy, you're gonna be fat until you get off your fat ass and stop being lazy.

That's about it. Except for a few odd glandular cases, it's all on you.
Me? I'm just lazy. I've taken off almost 100 pounds in 2 years by not being lazy. I'm no better than anyone else.

DNRTFA but the headline made me go grab a piece of homemade chocolate-peppermint fudge and a glass of milk.

What? I'll just sit on anyone who calls me fat.

Really? I thought I did pretty good for Fark standards. I didn't tell anybody to kill themselves or DIAF or anything.

You must be new or have fragile sensibilities. Either way, kill yourself and DIAF!

As a girl who's watching her weight and whose father just bought her a chocolate muffin and urged her to try some of his cheesecake because "it's the holidays!", I'm getting a kick out of these replies.
