Why fat people annoy me

let me clarify, most fat people do not actually annoy me in any way more than skinny people do, but there are certain ones that do in fact annoy me for one particular reason.

You do not own the patent on healthy eating.

I know that sounds weird, but let me explain. For the last few years I hovered around 175 pounds. This is not considered fat for a person with a 5'11" frame, nor is it skinny. It happens to be a weight within the normal expected range for a person of my build. But I am not satisfied with this weight. I would rather be 165. Which also happens to be within my normal range. I look better at 165, I have more energy at 165, I feel more confident at 165. So guess what I decided to do... I cut down to 165.

I replaced the combo meals with chicken salads, and replace soda with water, add some light exercise and wah-lah 165 it is.

This does not make me Anorexic. It is not vain, it is not shallow, and I am not trying to insult fat people by losing weight. It's called self-discipline. And I am not a freak because I can do it every once in a while.

Just because I am smaller than you does not mean that I should eat as poorly as I can just because it makes you feel better about your poor diet.

I feel like a jerk for being mean to fat people, but in truth I am not really annoyed at fat people at all. I am annoyed at fat people who make excused for their weight, do nothing about it and then act all indignant because some skinny person ordered a salad.

Ok, I vented and now I am over it.

Sometimes we do not realize the compounding effects of our sins. We often do not realize that our participation in a certain sin, or even our inability to stand against a sin, creates heartache and pain for several people other than ourselves. Often times we do not even know how our sins are effecting the people around us.

By buying drugs, you are not only hurting yourself, you are allowing the dealer to stay in business.

By lying to your parents, you are causing them to have another fight that can hurt thier marriage.

By buying pornography, you are helping the porn producers to stay in business, and keeping the girls from leaving the business.

By stealing from the convenience store, you are keeping the store owner from paying this month's rent.

By claiming to be a Christian, but living in sin, you are keeping others from becoming Christians.
