    No one is that concerned with weight! I go for the “see food” diet. If I see it, and it looks good, I EAT it and don’t worry about it! Simple, huh?

    Unfortunately a lot of people - mostly women - do obsess.

    For someone who obsesses about being too heavy and too big most of the time, this is extremely out of character for Cathy to be practically bragging about her weight gains…

    Anyone agree?

    Maybe she’s finally embraced her inner roly-poly. Each of us has one lurking in there somewhere….

    I agree with you, WebSpider. This one kind of took me by surprise. It’s also a bit bizarre to be describing where your fat rolls came from. I would be very uncomfortable if someone did this to me. I’m not sure about this one…

    Cut her some slack, guys. It’s the first time we’ve seen her in the office in months.

    That’s just so wrong! I never knew ANY woman who showed off her fat, let alone acted like it was a triumph. NEVER! Men on the other hand…

    Some women do not obsess about weight enough. I try to tell my wife that it is important to look good, but she jsut say I am shallow. This one is going up on the refrigerator!

    Okay, it would be funny if this arc continued tomorrow to its logical conclusion…

    Someone runs up to Cathy and says OHMYGOD. That is amazing! so when is the baby due?????

    Since we’ve all been predicting that this strip might end with them finding out they are pregnant, this would be too funny!

    I never gain weight on vacation with all the running around we do. :P

    I’m with you on that one, WebSpider.

    Otherwise, the strip (and yesterday’s) are just too gross. As far as I’m concerned, unhealthy is repulsive and very unhealthy is very repulsive. There is a time and place to show off your burst blisters, your bike-accident scrape, or the pus oozing out of your finger. (At least, if you’re a Guy, there is.) The office ain’t it.
