Given any opportunity to post a picture of one of my cats and I so will…hehehe… For once, I have a good experience in talking to random women I met about fat. For once, someone believed me, who is not from the fatosphere, when I mentioned that my “deathfat” cat seems to eat less than [...]

Pardon me as I go off on a psychological journey today. I’ve been wrestling with this the past couple of days and I think blogging about it might help. I have a hole in my heart. Sometimes it’s big and sometimes it’s small. It’s gotten bigger the last few days and I’ve been trying to [...]

Commentor Dedabets inspired me to post a link to an awesome WellRoundedType2 post that I believe I have linked to before about transcending negative feelings about fat while dancing. You can find that awesome post here. WRT2 talks about envisioning her fat as full of love, which is frickin’ brilliant! I have taken this [...]

The “I See Dumb People…” photo would also be a nice illustration, but I’ll stick with the muffins. MSNBC advises you to “Beware the Hidden Agenda of ‘Experts’.” For better or for worse, I found this article in the business section of MSNBC, not the health section. They warn that financial ‘experts’ (and yes, they [...]

This is my back patio. I’ve talked before about my back patio. This is my place of solace. This is where I go when work, marriage, friendships and general responsibility overload me. The string of Christmas lights around the roof of the house lights it just right on those dark nights when the stars are [...]

A friend pointed me to an eating disorder forum post that had some words I think are so wise and wonderful. That said, I won’t be providing a link to this forum or post… at least not at this point. It’s not worth the sanity points that are too easily expended with some of the [...]

I would just put this in the Open Thread… it would fit better there, but I can’t put cute pics of my beasties in the Open Thread comments. So, here it is. I’m posting this one to remind me of the things I’m grateful for… I’ll start with the fur children: The pic above [...]

I’ve been sitting on this post idea for a week now. I was hoping to come up with something that readers could more easily relate too… but, I’ve also learned that when I have an idea haunting me like this one has that I’m not going to get another idea until I get the first [...]
