<\/a><\/p>\nEvery year I see the magazine.\u00a0 Two years ago here’s what would run through my head:<\/p>\n
“HALF my weight? Yeah right!\u00a0 That’s like…….150 pounds.\u00a0 I could NEVER lose 150 pounds.\u00a0 Those people must have started at like 400 pounds!\u00a0 There’s NO way that could ever be me. Who does that? No one.”<\/p>\n
This year:<\/p>\n
“Bah!\u00a0 She only lost 115 pounds.\u00a0 I lost more than that!\u00a0 She wasn’t even that heavy to begin with!\u00a0 He lost under a 100? Why is he in the magazine?”<\/p>\n

There were several stories within the magazine that I enjoyed or hit a note with me.\u00a0 I found myself agreeing or finding common ground with almost everyone of them.\u00a0 If you are on your journey now, I would greatly recommend picking up a copy.\u00a0 It’s always good to hear about other people’s journeys.<\/p>\n
There was a lot of buzz when the edition came out around the language they use.\u00a0 There’s actually a petition you can sign to ask People to stop using the terms “No Surgery, No Gimmicks”.\u00a0 Supporters of this petition suggest that weight loss surgery should not be considered a gimmick or that those who have it should be ashamed or considered ‘less than’ those that don’t.\u00a0 So, what do you think? Is weight loss surgery a ‘quick fix’? Is it a cop out? I’ll let you ponder on that for a few days before giving you my thoughts……..Comments!!!!!!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
This year, I could NOT WAIT for the “Half Their Size” issue of People to come out.\u00a0 I see it every year.\u00a0 This is the first year I actually read it! Every year I see the magazine.\u00a0 Two years ago here’s what would run through my head: “HALF my weight? Yeah right!\u00a0 That’s like…….150 pounds.\u00a0 … <\/p>\n
