weight loss would be SO much easier if I was a dude

I realized something today while I watched a male coworker gorge himself on fried fatty foods…..that it is SO much easier to lose weight as a man.

When most guys gain weight, they gain it in their belly. Girls, we gain it all around the middle…butt, thighs, stomach, sometimes we get jiggly arms. Chubby faces. Then when we get motivated to lose weight, we must count every calorie, exercise constantly.

Most Guys, they just have to move a little bit more and maybe cut out a couple beers and the weight falls off. Jealous? More like envious of the ease with which they lose the weight.

oh and how they inadvertantly sabotage our weight loss efforts. like the eating late at night, or bringing home fatty, bad for you treats. Always at our weakest moments when we have so much trouble resisting temptation. Damn them and their ability to shed pounds with ease! Damn them for there comfort with being a little pudgy and knowing we love them anyways. lol

    I agree 100% — my dad, my ex, they all would cut out a bag of chips and drop the weight like it was nothing. I have not touched real chips in years! I think that’s partially why girls in relationships gain weight, along with the whole part of being a couple thing. It is so hard to watch your boyfriend eat delicious bad foods and not tasting. Plus, why do guys look so much better than we do with a little extra weight? ugh

    Yeah it is definitely true! They don’t have all the hormonal things going on too! I think these days they do get more pressure to be thin but they still have less then us. Also, things are just more geared them getting more physical activitity then us….It sucks!!!
