That’s it I’m done! Done listening to the multitude of skinny women who gained 15 pounds once, lost it 12 seconds later because they ran a flight of stairs and announced they have a diet plan for me! Done with berry trees, powdered shakes, frozen dinners (which cost more than gym memberships). Done with low carbs, high carbs, no carbs, high protein, low protein, no protein, low-fat, low sugar, low calorie , no taste, crappy, expensive, ridiculous diets.

But most of all I’m done listening to advice from skinny women that have no clue what I’m going through!

So to the following women, who meet my definition of skinny:

1. Any woman who started out thin, stayed thin, lives thin and breathes thin. Listen you have no idea what its like to be fat. You don’t understand struggles that fat women deal with. You do not ride on my emotional roller coaster and you can probably buckle that belt anyway. So shut it!

2. Any woman who eats a carrot, forcefully vomits it up, says she ate too much this week and proceeds to starve for 3 days. You know who you are girls, and I while I admire your dedication to be stupid.. I mean thin,.. I’d rather my heart attack came by doughnut, not ketosis! Please shut up.

3. Any woman who has never been more than 20 pounds overweight in her life. You are either genetically gifted, belong in categories 1 or 2, or a combination of 1 and 2. Shut up!

4. Any woman who has never had trouble buckling a belt on a plane, roller coaster. Shut your mouth!

You have no clue what you’re talking about. You may have a degree from 6 universities and maybe even some people have lost weight on your programs.. and maybe even kept it off, its possible, unlikely, but possible, but you still have zero idea about what you’re spewing.

So before you open your carrot-eating, 110 pound, size 4 mouth I want to tell you to SHUT UP.

My twinkie-eating, 200 pound, size 24 ass will take advice from someone that’s been there and done that.

When I had finally reached my breaking point in weight gain, I sat down and began browsing websites to learn about losing weight. At first, I’ll admit, I was trying to find information on bypass surgery or pills.

Luckily the first website I found, which taught me the correct way to lose weight, was Caloriesperhour.com. While this site is very professional now, when I first started reading, it I think sometime back in 2004, it was just some calculators, forums and very interesting articles by a guy that ran the site. I wish I could remember his name because he taught me so much.

This site is important because of, not only its vast amount of material, but information and tools which don’t advocate ridiculous pills, powders, money or other ridiculous claims. It gives you the tools to work out for yourself exactly how to lose a pound per week and exactly how many calories you are burning now per week. The calculators are an invaluable tool that every person who wishes to lose or gain weight using healthy methods.

This site is completely free and I recommend their calculators highly.
Warning: You can get lost in this site because it has an amazing amount of articles and calculators and you may never leave their forums.

Calorie counter, calorie calculators, exercise advice and more.
