This compromises the Caretaker’s self-esteem, distorts their thinking processes, and locks them into a Victim-Persecutor-Rescuer pattern with the Borderline or Narcissist. Caretakers give up their sense of self to become who and what the Borderline or Narcissist needs them to be. Here, Margalis Fjelstad describes how people get into a Caretaker role with a Borderline or Narcissist, and how they can get out. These negative behaviors don’t happen once in a while, they happen almost continuously in their intimate relationships and most often, and especially with their Caretaker family member. Their ability to function normally or pleasantly can suddenly change in an instant, like flipping a switch. However, in intimate relationships, they can be emotional, aggressive, demeaning, illogical, paranoid, accusing, and controlling-in the extreme. ![]() ![]() Often they appear to be normally functioning at work and in public interactions, and Narcissists may even be highly effective, in the short term, in some work or social situations.

Too much fat in the liver can cause liver inflammation and liver damage. This helps you develop legs that are as muscular as possible. Fatty Legs is about an eight-year-old girl named Margaret Pokiak. Fatty liver, or hepatic steatosis, is a broad term that describes the buildup of fats in the liver. Are you built more like a football lineman (an endomorph) or a marathon runner (ectomorph)? Then work with the body you have by eating a healthy diet and exercising to get as lean as you can for your frame 3. To determine if you're an endomorph, or an ectomorph or mesomorph, consider whether it's relatively easy for you to put on muscle 1. Endomorphs also have a tendency to put fat on more easily than muscle, making it more likely that the untrained legs contain disproportionately more fat. These muscles are some of the largest in your body, meaning that making them physically fit encourages the metabolic rate to increase. Fatty Legs touches on such universal themes as self-esteem, choosing between right and wrong and being courageous in the face of cruelty and meanness. The endomorph body, in contrast to the ectomorph and mesomorph, is efficient in storing fat deposits, giving people with this body type a rounded or soft appearance 1.ĭespite this, endomorphs also tend to have very strong lower body muscles. Your body type is a measure of your metabolism and how your body utilizes and stores fat you're genetically predisposed to certain types. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() While it was fun, I think my expectations were a little too high.
