More fat abusers? How depressing! Society has been grooming this abuse for some time- skinny is chic, skinny is healthy, heroin addict is the "ideal look". You can't even have a natural pair of C-cups (male or female) anymore without being labeled a "fatty". We got the message, carrying around extra weight isn't healthy/aesthetic, quit hammering the indoctrination of fat-hate into the general public. The importance of beauty is just the symptom of a fallen society.
Jessica's husband is the pig here, not her. It's hard to lose weight after having a baby, maybe HE should gain 30 lbs and take some estrogen pills and see how hot HE looks! It's hard even when you excercise, eat right, and breast feed. If appearance is the only reason that he married her, then no wonder he's so disappointed, because that's all the relationship was based on. If he's that worried about it, why doesn't he PAY for the plastic surgery? Until then, he needs to shut his mouth and get HIMSELF in shape.
Well, I am weighing in here before seeing the actual program, but I would like to make two statements. One is in response to this message. I don't know what type of man Jessica's husband is. He may very well be a pig for not being more understanding of her situation/condition. But at the same time for you to say that he is a pig because he wants his wife to loose weight is also wrong. We are going from end of the spectrum to the other. You saying that because she has gotten pregnant and gained weight that its alright. Everyone woman is different, but having children is not an excuse for being overweight. My wife has had two children is now 40 years old and she is in better shape than the day we got married. Could Jessica's husband speak to her in a more loving way while conveying his dissatisfaction, I positive he could.
The next point that I would like to state would be directed toward a comment that Dr. Phil made during one the previews for this show. He asked Jessica if she gained this weight after getting pregnant? To which her response was "yes". Dr. Phil proceeded to ask who got her pregnant, at which point she looks at her husband. There so many places I could go here. Did he provide the sperm, yeah. Did she provide the egg, well yeah. Are we now to blame the husband fo the weight that our wives gain while being pregnant? If so, why stop there? We should be charged for every crime that any woman has committed from having Post Pardom Depression, and I could go on. C'mon, let's keep the blame where it needs to be. Jessica is responsible for her own body. What she needs to do is be satisfied with her own body. If this is the weight she is satisfied and being at, then so be it. It is also up to her to loose weight for her husband if she thinks that will please him, but she also needs to do because she wants to. Also, Jessica's husband need to come to grips that this may be the weight that Jessica will be. Did he marry her strictly for her looks? I am not a counselor, but I bet that if they are having problems in their marriage, even if Jessica looses the weight, something else is going to be the problem. I have more to say, but I will stop there.
