I am low key counciling a fat girl at work Where I work there is a woman who seems to engage me in an avuncular fashion. I think she sees me as the Drunk Uncle she never had.  I had known her  before this job when I had bailed her out of jail about ten years ago. Today she is married with two kids and never bothered to lose the baby weight. She was quite the QT back when she was my client, but had let herself go in the intervening years. About three months ago, I started noticing subtle things. She would some times walk by me while I'm eating lunch and see what I am eating. "damn, that looks good". Then she would ask me how I prepared my lunch. Then I noticed she would make fat jokes. Not the "teehee" kinda jokes we are used from fatasses. They were self deprecating, yet more along the lines of fat shaming kinda jokes we would make. After a while I noticed that her desk was no longer littered with chip bags and soda cans.  About a month ago, she came to me and asked when was the next time I was going to the Chinese buffet. I will sometimes go there a couple times a month because they have good baked salmon and I like the Mongolian grilled vegetables. She said she wanted to go with me next time so she could see what I get and try it.  At the buffet we had a nice conversation about her growing disgust with junk food and how after about a month without sugar, she no longer craves it like she did. It was during this conversation that I REALLY noticed something. No puffiness around the eyes. Less cheek volume and only one and a half chins. That was when I brought up that I had noticed she had lost weight. She seemed proud but not smug when she told me she's lost 19 pounds since mid January. (She wasn't an Obeast,  it would be in abou 5-10 years if she didn't do something) I shared with her my philosophy on healthy eating and she seemed to be taking mental notes. The last couple of times I have gone to the Chinese buffet, she has come with me, and I have been impressed with her choices and portions. Damn, it is such a breath of fresh air to see someone actually take some fucking responsibility for the decisions they make. I think she may have actually made some tangible life altering changes and they are paying off with real tangible results. It is great to see when someone doesn't Talk the Talk, and instead, gets off their ass and Walks the Walk.  Well, White pill over. We now return you to your usual submissions of  cottage cheese thighs and fupa slings.
