i like to think of myself as one of the nice internet people

[cville]

She works 8 hours a day at fitness! Gah!

[iamgrace]

I give zero fucks about this woman. I keep forgetting she exists inbetwewn people posting about her here and on FB.

[txgrandma]

Don't believe everything on the internetz.
Lies. Photoshopped bodies! More lies!

Too much makeup.

On what planet is this not skinny?

I can't wait until we evolve out of bodies and are just ethereal poofs or something.

[pedanticwench]

I don't understand what she is trying to prove.

OMG did you not see the little text box that says strong not skinny.  She wouldn't do anything to try and appear thinner - she's strong.  Duh.

As an aside those shorts are hideous.  The rest, whatever.  We all have our priorities and most days mine include a Snickers bar.  sorrynotsorry

She also has a blessedly long torso and great proportions which has nothing to do with physical fitness or health.

I don't know. She doesn't get me riled up or anything, but I'm starting to get exhausted with everything being about bodies/diets/exercise/etc. all the time. There is more to life.

People hate you because you're a pretentious bitch and you cram it down peoples throats when they aren't asking for it... which they DO ask for it with Dr Phil (gag) and WW.

THAT THERE ARE NO EXCUSES, YOU LAZY SLOB!!! 

Sometimes the excuse is "I don't care/I don't want to" and I hate how that isn't respected. Everything is all about freedom of choice and you do what's best for you until someone makes an intentional decision to skip their workout because they want to do crafts with their kid or something.

I've posted before that I am overweight (obese by BMI but not by measurements), roughly a size 14... and really have no serious interest in losing weight whatsoever. I'm working out like a FOOL right now because I am desperate to learn how to snowboard next winter and want to be as physically able as possible for it, and physical movement helps with my IBS. It has nothing to do with my weight. 

We've made attaining health/thinness/"strength" a religion in our society as of late, and you have to make it your life to be considered dedicated enough. It didn't matter when I ran 20 miles a week, ate a clean diet, and had perfectly healthy metabolic functions, I was still "unhealthy" and discriminated against because I was larger. It's so weird. 

The Healthy At Every Size advocate in me is just really sad about all of this lately. 

[papie]

I can't stand her either. My excuse is I have a real job, bitch.

[iamgrace]

And seriously. Does she think she's the only woman ever to have had three kids and still be fit? I mean COME ON.

[Deleted]

"I'm better than you" seems to be her only excuse in every single media outlet. She can take a fucking long walk off a short cliff.

[rex]

her body isn't the problem, it's her smug bitchy attitude.

[iamgrace]

Also, she's an idiot. I just went over to her blog and read some random stuff and in one oat she talks about being pregnant for 40 weeks, or you know, ten months. But, hey! At least she has a flat belly. Phew.

[Jermys]

I hate that "What's your excuse" bullshit. My excuse is that my entire self worth isn't wrapped up in my goddamn appearance.

You know what, maybe looking our best isn't our priority. No reason to shame other people for not being able to do what she can do.

Or maybe people have different conceptions of looking your "best". I'm not exactly where I'd like to be now, but my ideal was never Maria Kang. I have other unattainable goals. Ha ha.

[meganew]

What is her job that she works for 8+ hours a day?

[sewpinkgal]

Fitness is a hobby for me and it's part of my social circle, but she is so sanctimonious and holier than thou, she is a huge turn off for me.

This is one of the reasons why I love my fitness idol (and also a good friend) so much - she is very open and respectful of the fact that fitness is not going to be everyone's priority or even a priority all the time. That there has to be a balance in life and that is okay. She is a much bigger proponent of setting goals and then sticking to them - whatever those goals may be.

Ugliness is worse when it's coming from inside.

[penelope]

Physical activity isn't always just about the body. I work out because it is a huge stress relief for me and I feel better mentally when I do. I could still stand to lose a few pounds. There is more to it than six pack abs.

This is pretty much the best quote!

[murdock]

There is no excuse for her attitude and judgement.

[teacup]

I'd look like that with Photoshop too.

I agree she's a major douche,and needs to go away,  but I'm not understanding  why this comment off. 

Becase 40 weeks isn't ten months. 4 weeks doesn't equal one month except in February. It's just a major pet peeve of mine.

[mrsukyankee]

I hate the "strong not skinny" thing. No, you ARE skinny. And that's fine. But people can be all sorts of sizes and be strong and not look like this bitch. She doesn't' get it because she's a self-centred hosebag.
