Flesh
I like when it comes in handfuls
soft, warm, pillowy, malleable handfuls
abundant bellies spilling over waistbands
like rising dough
Someone please tell me that this is a joke. →

Okay, they feel like Lane Bryant shouldn’t make clothes for fat girls, because that encourages obesity… really? So fat girls are supposed to walk around naked? They claim they do not hate fat people, they’re just trying to help, but they’re selling a line of clothing that basically gives license to pick on and humiliate fat kids for existing? If shaming fat people...

I’m a non-dieting repost in honor of No Diet Day!
Hello, my dear dieters. This blog entry is especially for you. If you’ve been reading my posts, you’ll notice a theme: that experimentation is good; that much of life is research, and if you treat it this way, you can experience your life without judgment. As a...

That is what today is for. Nothing else.
Oh Look! Shrek now takes on obesity →

The newest movie in the Shrek franchise includes an alternate Puss in Boots, “an overweight housecat that is too lethargic to even chase a mouse that helps himself to Puss’ milk.” How creative! Now a movie that was once about being yourself (in the form of a rather fat ogre, no less) is going to lecture children on how being sedentary will make you fat. And fat is the worst...

I wake up with the world’s surplus supply of energy burrowing through my body like a mole. It starts at my eyes, when I can no longer keep them closed. From there it travels down, wiggling fingers, waking my stomach, until it reaches my left leg. It jiggles in my ankle like a rubber ball in a small box until I just have to get out of bed.
It’s then I know that today, things will be...

Today, I finally got up the guts to tell a co-worker that I have feelings for him and asked him if he would like go out sometime after work. He politely declined, and I wasn’t too hurt. That was until I heard him tell another co-worker that he doesn’t “do fat chicks.” FML.
Dear FML Submitter:
You’re better off without him. Seriously.
My kitchen is my happy place
It’s full of gadgets and timers, avocados and cats.

Today I made tofu lo mein. I forgot the carrots. I learned that oyster sauce is very hesitant to come out of the bottle. I also learned that the recipe tastes a lot like yakisoba, which is one of my favorite foods ever. The likelihood of this entering my repertoire is very high.
My roommates tell me I make a very good housewife.
That kinda makes me happy.

Today is the day that I stopped paying for ice cream. I whipped up a batch of heavenly vanilla in my brand new ice cream maker, sliced up some fresh strawberries from the Farmer’s Market, and ate like royalty.

I don’t always like cooking light.
They can be a little preachy. There are exercise tips, diet tips, snack tips, et cetera. I don’t buy cooking magazines for these things. I buy cooking magazines for recipes, and I’ve noticed that there are a hell of a lot of ads, lists of things to buy for your kitchen, and poorly researched editorials about dieting for a magazine with the word...
The phrase "healthy weight" gives me hives.

It’s a dog whistle for “thin enough.” People who have had it with body image nonsense hear the judgment, while anyone else can say, “What’s wrong with health?” Nothing’s wrong with health. But that’s not what we’re talking about.
This phrase can be rehabilitated! Notably in contexts that explicitly acknowledge that:
