Q:My one friend literally eats a chocolate a day, and can eat whatever she wants and her skin remains beautiful and her weight never changes. Whereas I am so focused on healthy food and exercise, but remain bigger – what's wrong with me?!
Your friend and you seem to have fallen for the same myth. The myth that it does not matter what you eat, as long as you stay slim.
Eating well and exercising are good for you, and they would be just as good for your friend. You are doing something great for your health that you can be proud of (no matter what your size!), and your friend is abusing her health and should be ashamed of it (no matter what her size!!).
Problem is, in our society, it is how you look that is seen as being healthy or not healthy, instead of how you are behaving. Silly isn't it?
Health comes in many sizes and shapes.
