An excerpt from Mika Brzezinski's "Obsessed"
MSNBC ^

Posted on 05/06/2013 8:41:53 AM PDT by Night Hides Not

How does a person who is not overweight write about her lifelong obsession with overeating without sounding like a narcissistic, woe-is-me skinny girl with an overinflated image of herself, particularly to those who share her obsession with food but happen to be overweight, or even obese?

I can report back to you that the answer to my question was almost unanimous: you can’t. No matter what you say or how you say it, you’re going to sound like a privileged skinny bitch with food issues. Oh yeah, and a TV show. And a woman who was born into a wonderful, prominent family and has a blessed life.

That's it...I can't take anymore...my eyes are still bleeding from her free publicity segment on Morning Joe this morning. Argggggghhhhhhhhh!

TOPICS: Books/Literature; Food; Health/Medicine
KEYWORDS:
So why did I post this? Simple. She should have just bought Dr. Joel Fuhrman's "Eat to Live".

I was diagnosed with Type II Diabetes around Halloween last year. My doctor strongly recommended I follow Dr. Fuhrman's program. After 3 months, I was removed from my prescription for metformin, as my H1B dropped from 11 to 4.6. I've also dropped over 30 pounds, and am much more regimented in my exercise routine (primarily walking - yesterday I walked 7 miles @ 16 min per mile).

If Mika followed "Eat to Live", she wouldn't have any obsession for food. I've never eaten more in my life: my dinner last night was a salad in a 2 quart bowl, and a pound of steamed asparagus. Dessert was a bowl of frozen berries. My beverage of choice is usually Ozarka bottled water.

There's no calorie counting, no special menu that I follow.

Maybe Mika wouldn't be so hyper if she cut down on her caffeine intake. Amazing hypocrisy when she's a food Nazi, while one of her major sponsors is Starbucks.

Dr. Fuhrman's program is worth taking a look at. It has to be more effective than whatever Mika is dishing out.

I think a lot of libbies have body image issues which causes them to become almost tyrannical about dealing with people who don’t fit into their “ideal” when it comes to body shapes.

This is how they think:

How dare someone be fat and happy if I “think” I am fat (even when I am not) and I am constantly unhappy about it......

I was diagnosed with Type II Diabetes ...
And you didn't blame it (i.e. sue) on your work environment, Agent Orange, contaminated drinking water, etc?
Great job responding to the diagnosis - good luck.

I also noticed that Mika only talks about eating/diets with white women. The air she breathes is rarified in the bubble she lives in.

She has food binge-purging and alcohol problems.

I think the problem goes deeper than food.

She was born May 2, 1967 which makes her 46. Sounds to me like the hag needs validation. Mid-life crisis is such an ugly thing in liberal women.

All they have left in life is multiple facelifts until their eyebrows are in their hairlines and so much botox you can embalm a 500 man.

Mika, you are an attention whore!

Thanks...the biggest contributor to my problem was an addiction to Coke Classic.

However, I'm not suing them. ;) Haven't had a real hankering for one in several months.

For all the talk to my kids about taking responsibility for your life, it would have been hypocritical for me to blame anyone but myself.

Another 15 pounds to shed, then I'll be at the weight I was carrying when I graduated from Airborne School 37 years ago.

Your diagnosis is spot-on!

+1...The woman has it made, making over $1 million for a few hours a day on TV and radio. Instead of getting on her knees and thanking God every day, she whines and gripes about almost everything.

She would be better off, and happier, following the lead of Sarah Palin.

*****************

Mika is a celebrity in her own mind. She got the job because of daddy, not because of anything she’s accomplished. She is a sad reflection of what the liberals have become..... useful tools.

Food intake is part of their religion. You can see she is bragging about her vegan diet like a good liberal. It is one of the tenets of the cult.

Pray for America

There is no bigger sugar/fat high than a Starbucks Frappuccino.

But she has no problem taking their advertisement money.

Your own worst enemy ... you're not alone.
Remember, the hardest part of any exercise program is getting out the front door. As a 30 year runner, I can attest to that.
P.S. Thanks for your service to America.
