On the serious side, there is definitely something to this. I have always felt fat. Makes you wonder where this originates in women. I look at pictures of when I was younger and I was THIN (100 lbs) and yet still felt fat.
I don't have a clue what video I saw the first time, but It certainly was not this one. It was a guy that was sitting In the open REALLY cold, and snow, and Ice skating on a lake drinking from a bottle of booze. Where the hell did It go?
I understand the "fat talk" syndrome. I have "negative talk" going in my head almost constantly. Mine is a result of my depression. But, like kk, I wonder why most women have it. I assume it's in their upbringing.
I battle with this constantly, even with a pretty dramatic weight loss I catch myself in the mirror and dream away how much more I can lose, what if I didnt have all those wrinkles on my forehead, what I wouldnt give for a thick head of hair like my sister.. I battle everyday not to say anything in front of my girls, we talk about how everyone is the size and shape they are supposed to be and that they are beautiful.. I dont know how much it helps because I think I still say negative comments about others and myself in front of them, they still come in contact with others that do the same..
One of the saddest things I could possibly imagine would be if the girls would start saying anything of what I say to myself to themselves..

All Talk!

NO Action!
White women always claim they need to loose weight even when they look great.
Black women hardly ever say they need to loose weight, they are proud of how they look.

WTF?
The video's must have interchanged positions for toad to make such a comment.
And anon much have interchanged ID's to make such a comment.
How many personalities and videos are we dealing with?
Oh, I forgot I was in cyberland.
On a serious note, like yourself even if you are carrying a few extra pounds - there is more to love!

Daily Affirmation with Stuart Smiley
To think that I once laughed at Stuart Smiley. Now I need one in my life. What goes around comes around.

videos often interchange positions on the net, happens here and everywhere else on the net.
And by the way, I have done better things, just not filmed

It's hard to battle the societal influences (movies, magazines, TV, advertisements, peer groups) that reinforce fat talk.
