    Why do people get praised for losing weight ??

    Unless the original weight gain was through health reasons obviously, which is a different story.

    But every day there's a story on some stupid celebrity, or just someone in the general public, who used to be a fat ass because they ate like fucking pigs everyday for 10 years, but now lost a lot of that weight, and now weigh basically what most normal sized people weigh in the first place.

    Why does that deserve praise ??



    This is the latest Z list celeb that seems to be in the papers here all the time now since she lost weight.



    She should be ashamed she let herself get into such a mess in the first place...

    Under that dress she is still a mess. That loose saggy skin didn't go away.

      For the same reason we praise people who stop drinking or doing drugs.

        Anyone that notices a problem in their life and fixes it should be praised for recognizing the issue and putting forth the effort to fix it. Whether or not they caused the problem is irrelevant, nobody is perfect. Striving to become a better person is a quality that few people have.

        For example, you have a potty mouth (not that I don't LOL.) But your mother might praise you if you corrected it. I know mine would!

            I wouldn't praise them either.

            I drink, but if i stopped i sure as hell wouldn't be looking for praise for it...

              Probably because it's a difficult thing to do. If you stop dieting and exercising you could very easily lose all your progress. People want other people to be healthy. In the case of celebs though, I do see what you mean -- who cares?

                    Seeing them splashed over magazines (my gf buys them) boasting about how amazing they look and how they looked before just makes you want them to kindly fuck off and stop talking shit...

                                  Would you tell the bum that laid drunk in the ditch for 10 years that he did a great job after he was
                                  sober for 3 years and had completed tech school to become an electrician?

                                  I would, because it would encourage other bums to get out of the ditch.

                                  Look at the highlighted words/phrases in your post above.
                                  They define a method.

                                  People have basically two methods of controlling other people :

                                  1. Kick them when they are down and this will make them get up

                                  2. Encourage them to get up and congratulate those that do

                                  Number 1 is a "punishment system".
                                  Number 2 is a "reward system".

                                  The words in your post show that you clearly favor the "punishment system" method.

                                      not sure about it being a huge accomplishment... studying for years to get an academic degree, or perhaps training for years in order to complete a marathon under 3:30 is an accomplishment...

                                      getting your shit together for 30 days, by eating healthier, and hitting the gym for 30 mins a day is not...

                                      that being said, nothing wrong with some praise, but lets not act like something huge was accomplished...

                                            A person should be praised for bettering themselves, celebrity or not. It takes a lot of hard work and discipline to change your lifestyle. Granted it's easier for celebrities since they can afford trainers and all that stuff, but still.

                                                If you read The Sun, then apparently that is the kind of tabloid journalism that entertains you. The rest of us don't really give a fuck.

                                                  Ever tried it? I lost the 100lbs I have lost so far for myself rather than praise from anybody else but I suppose unless you have done that journey you may not understand.

                                                  I agree about celebs though.

                                                    Because humans are compassionate by nature, you obviously aren't.

                                                      Ever congratulate someone for quitting smoking? I have. It was stupid of them to start in the first place, smart of them to finally figure out they need to stop.

                                                              getting your shit together for 30 days, by eating healthier, and hitting the gym for 30 mins a day is not...

                                                              that being said, nothing wrong with some praise, but lets not act like something huge was accomplished...
                                                              nobody is saying here that there aren't different levels of achievement or that they are all the same by any means.

                                                              that being said, anyone finishing a marathon should be congratulated.. those things are fucking hard! hehe

                                                                    It depends on who they are. People like Kerry Katona would sell limbs to stay in the papers. So, I wouldn't doubt it.

                                                                    Then you have women like Anne Diamond who really just had an average middle aged woman's body who felt bullied and so went and had 'the surgery' but knew that would get her more slack. So, hid it until she couldn't. I understand why she lost weight and I understand why she hid how she did it. Where she went wrong was pretending she did it through just diet and exercise and then trying to sell her plan to other women.

It was not funny the first time so the 1000 time just shows he is a total waste of space and enjoys being a loser. Now if he posted stuff and even put half of some effort into it I would praise him like I did about 2 months ago when he posted good for a week and then it went to shit again hahahaha poo whatever. It is hard for him. So that is why. Come on CS you can do it, push harder and let it flow. What you can do only you can know

I would praise them as it would genuinely impress me that they had the willpower to fix their problem.

                                                                              Being fat is costly in many ways. I tend to respect people less that are fat, it says something about who you are and how you take care of yourself.

                                                                                          dieting and breaking any addiction is tremendously hard, no matter how somebody gets into the state they're in when they overcome their addictions it's a major accomplishment. people make a big fuss over daredevils, those guys live for that, many of them simply don't have fear, it's a gift or maybe not such a great gift. somebody to admire is somebody who does have fears or addiction problems and overcomes them.

I smoke a lot and have a lot of stress so will never be fat, not in my genes. but that doesn't give you a reason not to show respect to people that lost weight.

                                                                                            Like a smoker that quit smoking. You should motivate people, it's called having a concience.

Whether or not they caused the problem is irrelevant, nobody is perfect. Striving to become a better person is a quality that few people have.
