What's new

Starbucks is discontinuing Hazelnut coffee

I think the real issue is not so much feeling "beautiful", but feeling worthy. Our society places "beauty" as the reason to feel worthy, whereas one's worth should (in my opinion) be based on that person's contribution to the general well-being. I know, I know, crazy talk.

I do see your point! And for me, health is of utmost importance. I am not going to starve myself to loose those last 5-10 lbs, I would NEVER resort to plastic surgery (not to say I haven't been tempted (I've even made a consult once) !) because in the end, I believe the health risk is much too great.

But, as of right now I do not exercise, so if wanting to loose another 5+ lbs is the motivation I need to start up a healthy habit like exercise I just don't really see it as a bad thing. *shrug*

Do I believe you can be "womanly" AND healthy? Absolutely! In fact many of the ladies I find most attractive are not even close to the "model type" but have healthy habits.

Do I think I would be a healthier version of myself if I chose to exercise and keep my midsection down? YUP! ;-)

You should have been around to help me convince my soon-to-be-ex-wife of this!! I cannot stand ANY of those totally-void-of-content waste of time excuses for television viewing!!! How it ever got started, and how it continues to flourish, is a testament to how human nature tends to respond to the basest of things. At last count, she had 412 of them DVR'd!! I couldn't watch TV, because at some point, the message would come up that is was going to change channels to record another one! All 3 recording channels in use at the same time!! Arrrggghhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!

Reality tv, and Facebook are on the top of my hate list right now. "Let me sit around and watch other peoples (fake, dramatized) lives, while my own falls apart around me"

Edit: it could be logically argued that TPF is my own "reality tv" because I waste so much time on here. Please don't bring that up.
 
Reality TV seems to be an excuse to have people be mean to each other. I think I watched with my wife the first (or second) episode of Survivor, and decided there are better uses of my time. She quit those as well. Watched the talent shows for a while, then decided they too didn't deserve our viewing time. Watching people crash and burn just doesn't seem to be that entertaining.

Snerd, my condolences to you. It can't be easy.
