Cross-published on Rejected Reality.
As I started getting a fuller understanding of the disgusting lengths I put my body through to maintain a weight of over 400 lbs, the more nauseated I became when I saw others doing the same. In order to maintain 4+ spins, I had to consume over 10,000 calories per day!
When I visited an old friend while I was in Idaho last week; we were laughing about how we used to go to Izzy’s and gorge ourselves with food. It was a competition to see how many plates we could each go through! Then we would boast to others… Well, I polished off NINE plates! Like an alcoholic avoids pubs; I avoid buffet lines.
Watching food competitions on the cable networks (like Nathan’s 4th of July Hot Dog Contest) or The Travel Channels’ Man vs. Food, turns my stomach. I would much rather emulate Dhani Jones!
I was looking up some information on the Final Four (GO HEELS!) and I run across a Bill Geist piece for CBS Sunday Morning from last November on a restaurant in Chandler, Arizona called the Heart Attack Grill.
There are so many things about this clip that make me sick… icky icky nasty!

Recently came across an interesting survey asking Which stresses you out more: Your Weight or the Economy?
the stress of our appearance and weight can take up a huge amount of energy in our lives.
