OK. This might be the unpopular post about Kelly. Although I DO disagree with Kelly deciding to cook bacon next to Jodi (or sausages, or whatever that was..) for "retribution," since she was angry with Jodi. Yeah. That's not OK. That said. I thought KELLY was the one that made SENSE. Kelly said that she was sensitive enough to ask what foods she could not cook in the house (and admitted to doing a lot of the cooking, which I think is nice of Kelly.) Kelly claims that she does not cook the foods on the list. Kelly said that another person cooked potatoes (Kim) which was on the No-No list. She was not given the benefit of the doubt, here, but since we only see Kelly eating plates of meat? I would doubt she made the potatoes. Kelly either appears to be on the Atkins Diet, or has no idea how to eat. Either way, Kelly's poor nutrition isn't anyone else's problem than KELLY's. But, the fact remains: Part of Kelly's goal in the SOH is NOT to "lose weight!" Kelly is NOT on a MANDATED and nationally televised diet.
Therefore, I think Kelly SHOULD be able to eat whatever she wants. If someone else can't handle what Kelly eats? That's their problem. Not Kelly's. Kelly eating Crap only affects KELLY. It's not like Kelly is going to leave the house under the influence of Snickers bars and candy corn, or plates of bacon, and kill someone in a road accident. (That's a big difference between the alcohol arguments affecting others)
Why can't Kelly support other people on their diets WITHOUT modifying HER behavior?
I live with people who are trying to GAIN weight. You should SEE the crap food in my house! I don't EAT IT! Period. It's their food, not mine. It's THEIR choice, not mine. I don't feel tempted by it, either, because I am committed to my own healthy nutrition and weight loss. Period. If Jodi was COMMITTED to her diet? What Kelly or anyone else ate? It wouldn't matter!
That's where others in the house have been 100% right. In their catfight, imho, I side with Kelly. I didn't see her as "mean" or "evil" at all. I thought she called it how she saw it, and I respect that. She wasn't asking anyone to modify their behavior for HER.
I am trying to keep this in Individual and not make it a General Discussion. It's hard to do that when the fight was between two people...HOWEVER, I felt that someone should stick up for Kelly.
My boyfriend said that if he lived in that house, he would test their committment to weight loss by leaving a trail of Candy Corns and Hershey kisses behind him. If they ate it, they got a C or lower at the BOR, or got kicked out of the house to find people who really WANTED help. If they resisted? They could graduate. And, NO sneaking eating the trail after hours! LOL!
