I love chocolate. It loves me back. Part 2.
You may or may not have read my "I love chocolate. It loves me back." story. I decided to take it one step further and talk to my closest friend about it. I talked with her for a bit and she simply patted me on the belly and said "Well if you love eating chocolate so much. Eat it!" with a big smile on her face.
I was shocked by her response. I thought she'd give me a lecture on how I should change my ways, she being one of those thin girls.
We talked for a bit more and then she asked me "But, do you enjoy being that big?" I was stuck for words, not know why on earth my closest friend would be asking me if I enjoy being overweight. I didnt know what to say so I just shrugged my shoulders. "I know how much you like eating your chocolate, so why bother changing if you love who you are?" I'm simply stunned. She actually implied that I should continue gaining weight.
Firstly is it normal for a friend to say that if I love being fat, I should be fat and not think about losing weight, as skinny seems to be the sexy thing in society?
Secondly would it be normal for an already large girl to want to start stuffing herself stupid, just out of the love of eating? (because I kinda want to start getting a little bigger, after what my friend said to me)
and are there any guys out there that actually like girls with a bit of weight or do all the guys love the thin/normal sized girls?
Thanks!

You don't provide any statistics, so there is no way to know what you are talking about when you say "large" or "fat." These are emotional terms, not objective, and it is very hard for anyone to judge themselves objectively by using their emotions!
Google "women" and "BMI." Get your number.
If it's high, increase your activity level and begin to improve your diet. Chocolate in itself is not bad. In fact, there's lots of good stuff about it. It's quantity that's important. You can put yourself in the hospital by eating too many carrots, after all.
The second thing to look at is family history. Any weight-related dread diseases, especially high blood pressure or diabetes? If so, then that increases the urgency to improve now since bad habits only get harder to change with time.
plus, nobody likes fatasses you say? my BEST friend who is male actually likes larger women and i know so many others who like chicks with a little meat on them.
also, chocolate has been PROVEN not to give you acne. so thats incorrect as well.
i do believe you should get your facts straight and stop generalising, because by saying "noone" you are mainly reffering to yourself.
