I am truly dying. My brother (aka Drill Sergeant Asshole) has me on this crazy health diet (what other kind of diet is there?), killer workout schedule, weight loss pills, and vitamins. This is how it goes:

• wake up early
• take pills
• jogg out of cottage, the the intersection of milo and pioneer, down Milo, turn on Westfield, go to the intersection

so what if it's working? Anorexia works too, doesn't it? It isn't healthy. We don't mean to rain on your parade Tiff, but don't kill yourself trying for the instant results you want. Have you ever seen weight loss shows? I was watching Celebrity Fit Club, which is run by a professional dietician, psychiatrist, and REAL drill sergent. They set the weight loss goals for those people at 5-7 pounds A WEEK, not a day. It's not healty to drop that much. And don't think it's because you have so much fat on your body. There's a guy on that show that weighs over 300 pounds, and his target weight loss is still 5-7 pounds a week. I've never seen them go over 11 pounds for a week. We're just worried about you is all.

And it doesn't sound exactly like you LIKE what you're doing when you're throwing up on some guy's lawn and not getting enough to eat. Are you hungry after these meals he gives you? If so, you're not even eating enough to keep up that kind of exercise regimine. Food is not the enemy! That's what American society has taught you. Food, isn't the enemy, it's the fat content of certain foods like DONUTS and COOKIES and SODA and CHIPS that make people overweight. And the fact that people don't exercise like they should. You are doing right with the exercise, but don't kill yourself trying to lose weight so fast. You can put your body into shock, and that REALLY isnt' going to help you. Don't think that this diet your brother has you on is the best thing in the world simply because you lost 5 pounds in a day. Think about what that did to you! Don't you remember freshman health? They bring in a pound of fat in a gallon ziplock bag and show you how much that is. IT'S A LOT! and to think that you lost 5 of those in ONE DAY scares me Tiffany. DON'T KILL YOURSELF. It's natural to want to lose weight fast like that, but don't succum to the temptation that might permanently damage your system. I'm not trying to bring you down. I only care about you, and that's why I'm doing it. I'm fortunate not to have lost a friend yet to an untimely death, and I don't want to start now.

hey thanks, but if you're done, i'll take that soap box back, put it in the garage, and get back to my life.

[kasarmegro]

That's it. I'm done. I told you it was because I care about you Tiffany, not because I want to nag at your or I think I'm better than you. Don't worry, my time will come when I too will have weight problems, so don't think that I'm perfectly fine over here. But thank you kindly for showing me that my friendship means nothing to you, that I'm no better than the dirt on your shoes. I thought my friendship meant more to you, but guess not. Very well then, I'll let you get on with your life. I'm so terribly sorry that I thought I was a part of it. How stupid of me!! To think that I spent all that time in high school TRYING to like you for God knows what reason, yet all this time I was NOTHING to you. Why didn't you say so then? Why drag me along for a year and a half, leading me around like we were friends? If I meant that little to you, you should have just told me. Fine, enough with the masquerading around. I've got loads of people around me that actually care about me, so I really don't need to care about the one that was only pretending to be my friend.

Thanks for a whole load of nothing.

oh don't give me drama. be realistic. i never asked for an opinion. that was your choice. and just because i didn't happen to care for yours, doesn't mean that i "drug you around for a year and a half", puh-lease! but hey, that's your choice, if you wanna go all skitso on me Mrs. Sergeon General, then go for it. no one's stopping you.

[kasarmegro]

maybe I was a little dramatic. It was only because you took my "opinion" as "nagging" when it was really me showing that I care about you enough to express my concern for your overall health. You took that solicitousness on my behalf and stomped on it pretty hard. But that was belittled by the fact that you've done that EVERY time I've showed concern for you or when I didn't go along with everyone else's celebratory theme. I'm truly sorry if you think that all I was doing was using this as a stepping stone to enforce my opinion on you. I must have miscommunicated my true intentions, and that was for you to be careful. Never was I saying to you that I just wanted to boss you around or make my opinion better than yours. Yes, it was my opinion, and it was not specifically asked for, but I was a person that cared about you, and thus thought my opinion would matter to you at least a little bit, bidden or unbidden. Hence my outcry of rage. See, true friends, at least to my understanding, care about each other enough to say when they care, or to at least show that they care every once in a while.

But, as I said, apparently I've miscommunicated my thoughts, and it is apparently completely my fault that our friendship has fallen apart at this moment in time. No blame can be placed on you for not understanding that which was not conveyed clearly enough to be understood.
