Today I was watching an early morning talk show and there was this guy on there that wrote a book about giving people who are overweight some tough love, cause part of the problems are why we are heavy from emotional issues…Ok first off would you be mean to someone who is already emotional…Granted he might in his own mind think that we need this “tough love”, but that is not a way to get through to people…How about some support and encouraging words instead of yelling…And he says he thinks like an overweight person cause he lost 40 lbs, that is the equivalent of going on a small diet…No you can think of your self as an overweight person when you have to lose 100 lbs or more…
I don’t want to sound mean and be like him…But it’s just hard when people who are not in our shoes say things like that…Life is tough enough the way it is…
