Actually the question of this thread was:

1.)Is your clothing size so important?2.)or do some people even care about how they look?
3.)or does somebody who is fat/chubby ever thinks about going on a diet 4.)or is he/she just happy about how they look like?

1.) Yes: too small= uncomfortable
too big = unnecessary paper bag look
---> healthy in between

2.) Some do consult your psychatrist for further info
Some don't

3.) Yes, but not all do one.

4.) ...I don' know aren't you the chubby guy?

I barely fit into male medium shirts, european size

None of that american bullshit, why the **** did they make the sizes different so fat people would feel skinny?

I come from a skinny family, and my sister constantly bitches about the fact that since she moved to the states she now wears zero, when she used to wear 4s back in the day.

(talking about jeans by the way,)

Basically, europeans are more fit than americans, and american sizes are bullshit, and Americans need to acknowledge that people are unfit, and not change their Farking sizes to support unhealty ways.

None of this is aimed at thread creator.

Just ranting about sizing of clothes.

why do you people always generalize americans as being fat? thats the problem with you haters. You think the entire American people are fat which is not farking true.

dropping weight is easy, but hard at the same time.

I think it all depends of how you feel.
My best friend is fat, big. And i wish every1 in this world had his personality. And his gf is really cute (unlike him, she's all skinny-good body and figure, go to gym with me, etc etc), so that fact (he being fat) didnt mind at all for her.

You dont have to lose 10 pounds so poeple comes and go like "oh wow, you look cool". If you want to do it to fit on your t shirt, and at the end you feel great, then it really worths you lose your 10 pounds .

Most of the people care about how the others look .

Now as in for me, i love a guy who takes care of his body and mind tho; doesnt mean he/she needs to go to gym 24/7 or be the smartest guy in this world.

and @
Is your body size so important

i dont know if it's THAT important to me, but at least i try to keep my body healthy. So yeah, it's important.

personality>looks

hope you have fun on your xmas party

yeah i had a friend like that i never met anyone like him
RIP :cry:

as long as overweight ppl know they're overweight, they can live their life however they want. i ..... hate it when they don't think they're fat, when it's so painstakingly obvious that they are.

same wit anorexics, especially girls. some girls think they're fat, but they're just right, or underweight, and they won't eat a full meal a day. i just wanna beat some sense into them.

people in denial are Farking retarded.

He's right the opposite of anorexic would be like morbidly obese...

I've never actually watched them side by side until one of them died but seeing as if the obese person gets up and walks to far to fast he might die of a heart attack im putting my money on the anorexic chick...

BTW is it sexist to always picture anorexics are chicks and obese ppl as guys...

lol! i picture obese as guys and anorexic as guys too. maybe because most girls care of what others think and most guys dont

hmm ok just to be extremely honest if a person is fat i will label him/her as a loser couse to begin with that is how they feel............. most of the time they dont have the confidence to express themselves in public,arent happy with themselves regardless of what you/they say some say is genes w/e all i see are excuses ............make some healthy lifestyle choices and get your life back in track at some point i gained 20 pounds and my confidence went down.......really sucked ........ but i did something about it short after and i am in an awesome shape ( almost always being) i concider myself a succesful person and a good part of it is couse i am in a very good shape, when you are in shape people accept you have more frineds therefore more opportunities open up seriusly if you are fat or something help yourself insteed of watching so much tv/playing games run a lap or 2 twice a week and you will see huge changes the only person who will benefit from this is you and in a great way all you need is the will couse you have the means all it takes is a pair of legs to start getting in shape

some tips to work out
dont do the same type of exercise repeadely you need to wait 48-72 hours between each type example. you did legs on monday dont dont them on tuesday wednesday is when you want want to do it reason for this is couse every time you work out you rip your muscles ( even the few you have) and you need to give them time to repair
NOTE!!! there are 2 exceptions to this rule one is abs and other legs( forgot name of muscle) , you can work on your abs and run virtually every day reason why is couse this muscles are really hard to rip

how i work out
1. monday,wednesday and saturday bench
monday and wednesday i do 150 pounds 15 repetitions and for saturday i put large amounts of weights 230-250 pounds 3-5 repetitions ( mostly 3.....) you do this to push your muscles and make them set a new standard(so they keep growning) you dont want them to get comfortable with w/e you do other days

2. tuesday-saturday running
i run tuesday tru saturday 2 miles each day not too much but enough to keep my cardio at a good lvl
if you read this dont try to run 2 miles on your first day >.>...............if you havent run in a while and are just getting started i would recommend starting with 1/4 of a mile keep this for at least a week run the 1/4 mile and if you are doing ok repeat this but dont do it over 2 times if you are not in shape( no matter how good you feel) you will only hurt yourself at the end each week add 1/4 mile and you should get the results you want
NOTE!!! take your first 2 weeks really slowly you need to allow your body to adapt to the new changes dont care if you are young or old

well hope this help some of you or give you an idea of how to properly work out. Being in shape is all about 1 thing commitment if you dont have it you fail doesnt matter if you do this fro a week or a month you will get back to point a if you stop is not a job is a lifestyle

another thing i wanted to add diet. To make it short if you are on a diet specially the homemade ones you are stupid stop eating wish is what they all are is so wrong for so many reasons that i wont bother to explain i am saying here eat what you want but dont order 10 pizzaz for breakfast either...........you can eat any food you want and still have an awesome body as long as you are physically active !! small note here !! fruits help duh but most people dont like them wish is ok .Fruits and vegies are pretty much energy without fat so you understand why they are good i do eat some myself but dont base my diet in any way around them

btw i talk about ebnching in part 1 i dont think many girls will be doing 250 pounds.....ladies do female push-ups if you dont like having "saggy"(kinda) arms or if you want to be a bit stronger

i am sorry if i offended any1 on the first part was just being honest and i hope you can accept me the way i am is just how i feel
some people will want to know numbers about me i am 6 foot tall 170-175 pounds the max i can bench is 250 pounds ( dont try this alone)and i wont be posting pics of myself here but i can send you some if you really want to see me and yes with my shirt off >.>....shirt on optional xD

hum most of anorexix people are female, but I know a guy that was anorexic, but he was kinda young too.

but I always though the ''anorexia lil brother'' was body building for male.

Thought the topic was about a different sort of size...

Post by **Doron** » Sun Dec 09, 2007 6:40 pm

anyways, I still get the feeling no one really answered my main questions:

Are Sizes so Important?

- Yes
- No

Do some people even cae aout how they look?

- Yes
- No

Does somebody who is fat/chubby ever thnks about going ona diet or are they just happy how they look?

- Yes
- No

and could you just give reasons with your statements?

Ell · Post by **Ell** » Sun Dec 09, 2007 6:54 pm

It's because your questions are too general and have no point.

Obviously sizes are important, if there weren't sizes, how would people find clothes

Do some people care about their looks? What do you think, use some common sense, of course some people care, that's why they work out and try to stay in good shape. Honestly IMO everyone cares about how they look, it's just some people choose to do something about it while others don't.

Your last question is pretty similar to your second question, if the fat person was happy with him or herself, then no they wouldn't go on a diet. If they wanted to lose weight, they would.

Since none of your questions pertain to a specific person, they're way too general and can be answered with a "If they want to they would, if they don't they wouldn't".

at your point 2: I'm in our school library atm, and I see some butt ugly guys out here.. well, their nerds, but still...
some guys do look good even if they are nerds.. but the guys I can see here are fugly..

I think it's important to be fit. It's much easier to get in contact with people if you look good. Long term relationships are mostly built of personality match tho.

IMO

Is size important?
Everyone has their own opinions, many people judge from what they see so it can be hard. Maybe the shirt thing is just a starter for you to lose weight, and you will keep loosing it from their.

I am 6'1 and am 4% body fat, i eat like a whale and all i do is surf.

This is something you could do.

I am trying to put muscle onto my upper body and build up stanima for surfing. I got a calender and said for 3 months i will spend 30 mins doing weights everynight, and if i missed a day i would just add another day onto the 3 months. Cross each day as it goes by, goes pretty fast too!

SO maybe you could adapt this to your weight loss.

But weight isnt such an issue with me, its the inner arsehole i dont like!

I hope this helped in 1 way or another

Good luck!i
