…now that Weight Watchers has launched its new “Diets Are Mean” campaign:
“Are you trying to be in movies? No? Then what do you want to be thin for?”
–
“I think you have a lovely, womanly figure!”
–
“Hell, how long’s it been since you last had sex? Give yourself a damn piece of cake!”
–
“No one who’s had the day you’ve had could get by on 1500 calories.”
–
“It’s just harder for you to lose weight than other people – you have a different kind of body.”
–
“You went to the gym today – go ahead and have seconds!”
–
“Oh, so you ate the whole pint. At least you’re not a heroin addict.”
–
“If you’re being good and eating a boring salad for lunch, you should at least get to jazz it up with fried chicken strips and ranch dressing.”
–
“You know, you’re a good, kind person, and you’re intelligent. If you’re also fifty pounds overweight, well, that’s just more of you to love!”
–
“Skinny people look like anorexics with cancer.”
–
“If you just concentrate on making yourself happy, the weight will go away on its own.”
–
“Everything in moderation – even moderation!”
–
“Calories don’t count on your birthday/at Christmas/on your friend’s birthday/at a wedding/on vacation/when it’s this beautiful out/on the weekends/when you’re celebrating/on Flag Day/when they’re free/when someone surprises you with a treat!!!!”
