Last week Dr Phil (Dr FOOL- as my guy likes to call him) had a self proclamed "chubby chaser" on his show. I have to say, the first half of the show made me laugh, because the husband was really funny, and just sounded like he was in love with his wife. There were a couple of jabs made, and I think that his wife was under the impression that if she lost weight her husband wouldn't find her very attractive and would leave her. Resolution: husband was insecure, but loved his wife, (and preferred a more robust figure on a woman) but wouldn't leave his wife. Dr Phil suggested that they lose weight together (for health reasons)... blah blah blah *having said that-- yes, I do think that there can be health risks involved-- I am not passing that off... just avoiding it for obvious reasons...
Last half of the show: not so nice and sweet: Brother hates his brother's dates-- harasses them with hateful names, and believes all heafty honeys to be "stinky, lazy, sloppy, and bad people" Personally, I felt bad watching it, because I know that a lot of people think this way. My own (former) best friend and her husband are haters.. and name tossers... and just plain TOSSERs if you ask me.... but I digress....
I don't know why I even watched it, even my boyfriend said "DONT WATCH IT!" but-- i am a glutton for punishment. And, even though my bf is unbelievably awesome, supportive, and a luva of the chub, I still feel bad about my bod after watching this crap....
So the question is: After watching this--- how do you feel? (and I know the initial response is DONT WATCH IT.... but aside from that... What do YOU feel after watching this.. what does it make you want to do--react or retreat?
