They don&#39;t want to be healthy, they want to be thin, and that annoys me because those pills, shakes, fad diets all don&#39;t work. Oh well, either they&#39;ll learn eventually, or they&#39;ll be idiots forever.<br /><br /><strong>Tracie</strong> - Haha! A biscuit is an essential part of life in this part of the world ;)<br /><br /><strong>Lesley</strong> - 2 hours straight 3 days a week is a pretty tough ask on yourself; all or nothing can be really damaging (I know it!). Glad that the post helped you out :D<br /><br /><strong>Kek</strong> - <em>By February they&#39;ll all have fallen off the wagon and life can get back to normal.</em> And by lordy I cannot wait. Diet talk is exhausting enough, though at the moment it&#39;s even more ridiculous than normal. Let normal stupidity resume, stupid stupidity is driving me batty!<br /><br /><strong>Fi</strong> - I think that&#39;s a really brave and admirable move to ask people to not talk that way around you; good on you! I admire you for that and wish I had the strength to say the same thing to people around me too (problem is most of the people at my work doing the ridiculous stuff is management and senior staff, so I do feel a bit hesitant in that regard.) Don&#39;t apologise for the rant!

I just get so tired of other women being so down on themselves, and it devolves into a discussion/group whinge session where we criticize ourselves endlessly. <br /><br />I&#39;ve been losing weight and exercising regularly for the last year or so, but I don&#39;t feel the need to shout it from the rooftops, and I&#39;m really not that interested in other people&#39;s weights or what they eat! People need to realise they don&#39;t need to justify themselves constantly to other people.<br /><br />Sorry for the rant! This is just something that touches a nerve with me :DFihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02710159328085107454noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25715317.post-68020254727771772102012-01-26T09:53:28.887+13:002012-01-26T09:53:28.887+13:00Awesome choice of bickies for Biscuir Monday!<br /><br />People are idiots. I have honestly given up entirely on trying to help the folks at my office. Let them have their disgusting shakes, their no-carb diets and starvation portions. By February they&#39;ll all have fallen off the wagon and life can get back to normal.Kekhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02545413219256990483noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25715317.post-91026928844743913352012-01-25T05:08:37.358+13:002012-01-25T05:08:37.358+13:00This is a really good post about sensible habits. Sensible habits are definately something i need to get a handle on, as well as dumping that crazy &#39;all or nothing&#39; mentality, i am definately prone to that, especially regarding exercise. I do fins myself thinking &#39;if i can&#39;t go to the gym for 2 hours straight 3 times this week, i may as well not even go at all&#39;. Total self sabotage. I probably could go twice for 30 or 40mins and that would certainly be better than nothing<br /><br />Thanks for this, it perked me up rightly!<br />x<br />lesleyLife as a Caterpillarhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12060619595546876393noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25715317.post-61964079074901604452012-01-25T03:06:04.027+13:002012-01-25T03:06:04.027+13:00Nice post!

Ack. Every time someone asks how I &quot;did it&quot; (i.e. lost 15kg, so far), I tell them I eat better and move more, do things I enjoy. Obviously this is too simple for them, because most of those people will then proceed to &quot;I cannot eat ANYTHING EVER&quot; or swallow ridiculous pills or shakes without changing anything else about their habits. I wonder why this doesn&#39;t work for them... [/sarcasm]Diandrahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14570498251611083259noreply@blogger.com
