More Reasons why Fat Moms have to Lose Weight

[pornstarwannabe]

I lose respect for fat moms that refuse to lose weight. They care more about stuffing their face over the health of the child they carry. And don't geive me this crap about "it's the food - it's unhealthy" line. People of all incomes can lose weight, and the fat moms linked in the article are not poor.

So, do you lose respect for fat moms that refuse to lose weight when pregnant?

Quote:
Compared with women who maintained the recommended body mass index (BMI) of between 18.5 and 26, women who were obese — defined as having a BMI of 29 or greater — before pregnancy were more than twice as likely to have an infant with spina bifida, nearly twice as likely to have a baby with other neural-tube defects, and more vulnerable to giving birth to babies with heart problems, cleft palate or cleft lip, abnormal rectum or anus development, and hydrocephaly, a condition in which excess spinal fluid builds up in the brain. While the risk of birth defects in obese women has been known, "I wouldn't have predicted the range of birth defects found to be increased when we looked at maternal obesity," says Judith Rankin, an epidemiologist and one of the authors of the study.

My mom is chubby, but I don't understand why she's not fat. My family just carries weight well. Like, she looks good, and uses that to trick unsuspecting folk into thinking that she's healthy. Then she comes home and eats nothing but ice creme for weeks, then switches and eats nothing but pudding. She used to feed us like that to- we never ate real food. I spent my entire childhood eating junk food and produce. It ruined my teeth. My grandma cooked, but she cooks horribly fattening shit, I mean, with lard and whatnot, and she weights 98lbs. Always has. Like, the pregnancy with my mom all most killed her because she was to little- which I didn't know was a thing, but apparently, if you're really thin and you try and give birth it fucks your bones and teeth right up. Anyway, my point is, I don't understand why neither of them are really fucking fat. They should be. And that "I look horrible", much like how I've been telling her about pollution for years, and then gas prices went up and she was suddenly like, "Maybe I don't need a van for no reason", would be the only way to get her to achieve some semblence of health.

She just got out of the hospital for a bowl obstruction, btw. She's in and out of the hospital all the time because she's in her 40s and doesn't know how to feed herself. My baby brother is 13 and weighs almost 200lbs. I think I'm fat at (as of my weigh in yesterday) 154 (I'm short). If I had a month of raising him by myself, he'd be dumb as hell, but at least he'd be healthy. Having fat parents who feed you crap all the time certainly does make you fat. I hate how it's just accepted to fuck up your kids body because you're fucking lazy. You don't want to put in the effort to find out about nutrition and everything, so you just pop in some TV dinners- nevermind that my entire family gardened and would have GIVEN her organic veggies, that her aunt had an ORGANIC DAIRY FARM and gave us entire sides of beef that would sit in a deep freeze until I was old enough to learn how to cook, or that everyone around us had free range chickens- you see what I'm getting at? She was unemployeed for most of my childhood- she had ample time to make us real food, and chose not to.

Yeah, the cheapest food is also the least healthy. But if you budget correctly, it's totally possible to make real, healthy food, and stay within your budget, if you don't buy crap! People spend most of their money on junk-food, pre-packaged shit, like banquet- I fucking hate banquet shit because I ate it so much as a kid, to the point where I hated non-instant flake potatoes. Now, I can't eat instant flakes. I made real food for my little brother, the kind where you don't make fried potatoes in grease, but mash them with skim milk, butter, garlic, salt, and pepper, and corn that was marinated in margarine, salt, pepper, and cinnamon, and he was like, "This is how vegetables can taste?"

I was like, "Yeah, if you cook and season them, rather then dumping them out of the can and into the microwave... with a stick of butter and no other seasoning."

I mean, he has asthma that the doctors pretty much told my mom he could get rid of by reaching a healthy weight, and she just won't change for him. She's just gonna let her kid have asthma. Just like how, when I was little, she just let me have cavities and abscesses and whatnot. It... yeah, fat parents who don't give a shit about their kids piss me off to.

I chuckled.

But really, fat moms cause problems for the babies, and this cause us all to pay more in Health Care simply because fat moms do not want to lose weight.

Yes, obesity is a problem during pregnancy, but it's a problem raising kids to.

I called a neighbor woman fat the other day... she responded "I may be fat, but you're ugly... and I can loose weight!"

Pollution linked to birth defects

Women exposed to high levels of ozone and carbon monoxide may be up to three times as likely to give birth to a baby with heart defects, American research suggests.

Scientists found the risk increased when women were exposed to high levels of the pollutants in the second month of their pregnancy.

That is the time when the heart and other organs begin to develop.

Are you also in support of increased regulation on factory, power plant, and automobile emissions?

You miss the point. We are all exposed to stuff beyond our individual control. However, fat moms have individual control of their weight. See the difference?

Mercury do you place blame on any individual for anything? It seems to me you place blame on anyone but the people that have control of the outcome.

Of course I am. What kind of question is that?

Yes. This thread response.

The couple was poor. Yet Merc believes they have to be responsible to pay $100 to get their windshield fixed - but from what I heard, they could not afford it, and would have to pay the additional fine of $100 if they do not get the windshield repaired in time.

Odd that he does not think fat moms need to be in control of their own weight. Hmmmm....
