Yesterday, I had a conversation with LB about my nutrition and training practices. I generally eat a vegetarian diet, consuming fish only a few times per month, and I am very careful about what I do eat. I train hard, lifting several times per week as well as a few sessions of cardio. Yes, I'd like to lose a couple of 20 lbs, but what girl doesn't?
In the past, LB and I have discussed girls that he thinks are hot. No, I did not initiate the conversation. Yes, it was utterly ridiculous and I realize I should have cut it short. I mostly entertained it to see where his head was and what he liked physically. Of course, I heard the typical Beyonce, Halle Berry, Jessica Alba answer. Don't get me wrong: these are beautiful women with beautiful bodies, but I am not even close to that.
That's not to say that I don't think I'm beautiful either. Hell, I think I'm pretty damn hot in a Sara Ramirez sort of way. And I've got muscles, too! Without this layer of fat, I'm a pretty bad broad. And although I think that I am just as sexy as Jennifer Hudson, I'm not quite good enough to be as hot as Beyonce. At least as far as the media and the general population are concerned.
What makes this so ridiculous with LB is not that he thinks those women are hot. We all have preferences. LB made the comment that if a woman looks good, she looks good. He noted that he thinks I am hot and I don't need to lose weight. When I told him about the pressures of society, he stated;
"That's not true. Jennifer Hudson is hot. She could stand to lose 10 or 15 lbs, but she's still hot. If she didn't lose it, she'd be hot."
Say what?
