My stomach flipped when I read that paragraph about her boyfriend. I don't know why anyone, overweight or not, would want her managing their health. It sounds like maybe she has some problems of her own she isn't facing, but putting you all on diet pills as guinea pigs is just wrong. <br /><br />I hope you're able to work in that environment without it negatively effecting you. If not, I hope you're self-aware enough to get yourself out before it does any damage to your self. <br /><br />xxBellahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07544398450025713725noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-916223852001902403.post-59625387306652182852015-02-10T07:27:21.902-06:002015-02-10T07:27:21.902-06:00Does she care that weight does not determine healt...Does she care that weight does not determine health?<br />Does she care that you can improve health without losing weight?<br />Does she care that weight cycling is more dangerous to your health than being stable at your high weight?<br />Does she care that shaming fat people does NOTHING to lower weight or improve wellness and in fact has the opposite effect?<br /><br />This sounds like a very unhealthy situation. Plus I've been following you for years, and you're thin. As far as I know, you've never not been thin. I'm not talking about 10-20 pounds of yo-yo weight from restricting, bingeing, and purging. I'm not talking about the weight that you want to lose but can't (or can't keep off) because your body sees that weight as essential and fights you to lose it.<br /><br />You are a normal weight and your boss is telling you to take diet pills. Not healthy. If you were overweight and your boss were telling you to take diet pills, it would still be unhealthy. If that's the attitude she is giving her clients (Nothing is more important than being thin! Here, put an unknown, untested compound in your body to see if it fixes your grossness!) then she is the one failing to teach and model health, not the people she passed up for a job because they didn't suit her aesthetic preferences.Tempesthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17231346516896123249noreply@blogger.com
