My Job is Making Me FAT

Help, My job is making me Fat! 

If you work in any type of food industry just seeing and smelling food can make you hungrier.  So yes you can get fat by just working in and around food.  It doesn't mean that you will but the potential is there.  Especially for me because I don't actually get a lunch break.  I am able to eat the food and for free but I have a limited amount of time in which to eat anywhere from three to seven minutes.  I don't know about you but I can't enjoy a meal and take my time and savor each bite when I am cramming a slice of pizza down my throat so my stomach will stop grumbling and my headache will go away. 

Other work place hazards include snack machines, break rooms, candy bowls on desks, co-workers birthdays and party's.  If you are trying to lose weight or just trying to not gain weight while at work you will have to remain vigilant and watch out for all those little extras that try to sneak up on you while at work.  Don't let your job make you fat.

Skinny People Don't Eat Much!

I have come to the conclusion that skinny people just don't eat that much.  I am not sure if it is because they are not that hungry or that they don't want to get fat.  Either way they eat less than most overweight Americans.  They don't eat much and stay lean, meanwhile the rest of us are actually overfeeding ourselves.

Some proof that skinny people don't eat much comes from this book - Is She Naturally Thin or Disciplined?  Insider Secrets of the Sexy and Slim by Sally Shields.   


Most of the women in the book have always been thin and they don't eat very much.  I also read an article about Kelly Ripa who is skinny and it sounds like she doesn't eat very much either.  She said something about eating dessert that just sounds crazy to me.  Kelly Ripa said that if she has dessert in the house she will eat it but then she might not have dessert for another three months.  More proof right there that skinny people don't eat much. But it also made me think and helped me get back on my diet track.

I have started a new calorie restrictive diet and actually get hungry and hear my stomach rumble.  It has been a very long time since that has been happening to me, which means I have been eating way too much.  It really sucks because I like to eat and society is built around food gatherings.  Because I want to be skinny I am willing to go on another diet and try to lose weight.
