Thanksgiving

Now is the time for everyone to be around their loved ones and eat and eat and eat and eat! So, some ways to be safe about this matter is, make sure you're not over stuffing yourself. Eat enough so that you're not hungry, but don't eat to eat. Make sure you get what you want on your plate and not just grab everything just to have it. Slow down!!! Don't eat like crazy and keep getting up for more, don't be the first to get seconds if you do go for seconds. When you eat slow, you feel full with less food because your body realizes that you're eating and before you go up for more food, you already feel full. Make sure to not drink too much soda, juice, alcohol. Water helps everything go down easier and digest easier. Instead of socializing around food, socialize around activities. Instead of staying in the kitchen and hanging out with family and friends around the dinner table with food next to you, go to the living room and play some board games, put the food away so that you don't have that excuse of running to the kitchen for some quick snacks.

I think this post will help me more than anyone else! :D

My Realization

I have realized after watching a thing on youtube, that the world will come to being all fat/overweight people. Right now the US is 2/3 overweight, something that everyone should be really worried about. Is it because of the food the economy is providing? Is it because of the choices we make? Who is at fault? How can we say it is those who are overweight's fault when we don't know their situation? There a so many people with eating disorders, so many people with weight problems, whether being skinny or overweight, no one in particular is at fault.

The thing that I realized with the fact that everyone may soon be overweight, is that fashion designers have no choice but to make clothing for the majority, which is fat people, overweight people, plus size (whatever you want to call it) in order to stay in business.

Is it that fashion designers are welcoming the plus size or is it just because they need to make money?
