Guest guest Posted February 1, 2003 Report Share Posted February 1, 2003 We live in a culture of constant emphasis on weight LOSS--even by some of the companies who sell us nutrients that help us to gain and maintain weight. This was not so great an emphasis in the culture, nor were so many women obsessed with moderate weight gain as now when my middle daughter, just cheerfully ate like a horse, and was none theless thinner than her cf sibling. Kim is just so right and I see this all the time--in doctors' waiting rooms, laboratory waiting rooms, X-Ray waiting rooms; the underweight ill child, cf or no, and the mother public ly obsessing about weight gain. Thank you, Kim, for this post! ly, having gained a ton (by my standards) since orthopaedic sur gery myself, I carry every pound proudly, and I do hope that if it were a health issue for me, that I would speak with my family about food positi vely, and not negatively. n Rojas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
