    Fat people don't respect themselves.

    I had a conversation with someone today who told me that he didn't think fat people respect themselves. His only reason was because no self respecting person would ever be fat. He said this while talking to me, an obviously fat woman who is a size 18. I was so disgusted that I didn't know what...

    Painfully awkward dating moment

    No, there was really nothing in his manner that put me off. It was just awkward for me. He was really nice about it and smushed me in the seatbelt so I would be safe. I don't even think he thought twice about it. He just thought - this woman needs help so I will help her. Writing that just...

    Is it a "buyer's market" for FAs when it comes to BBW?

    Where are those studies? I have a feeling you're totally talking out of your ass again. Since prostitution is neither legal nor regulated in the United States, I'm curious as to how economists would discern the downturn of the sex trade. I call bullshit. And by the way, my standards haven't...

    Painfully awkward dating moment

    I had a second date earlier this week. He is not a FA. I'd venture a guess and say he's almost fat phobic. He's one of those guys who has never dated or even seen a fat woman naked. He works in the fashion industry. Despite my deep hatred of fashion and the industry in general, we get along...

    The End of the new Ponderous Woman

    I just finished reading it. I want more! You're really talented. *sneaks off to eat some pie*

    Clothing/Fashion Confession

    Hey, I was in Ulta today too! Don't you love that store? Unfortunately, the one near my home isn't the greatest but I go frequently anyway. There's so much less pressure there than at a department store. We want to see your makeup!

    Please give me some encouragement!

    You all honestly brought tears to my eyes. I knew I could count on you fine folks to help me. It's amazing how just a few heartfelt words on a screen made me feel so much better. I will donate the clothes to a woman's shelter. Because I was quite the little shopaholic in my youth, there's...

    Please give me some encouragement!

    I know this post may seem frivolous to some, but I am having difficulty right now. I have to move in a few weeks. I am slowly going through old boxes. I have about four huge boxes of my size four clothes that will probably never, ever fit again. They are all from about four years ago when...

    It works!-the Holy Grail of matte

    An excellent face wash for those with difficult skin is M.D. Forte. The main ingredient is glycolic acid which is wonderful for acne, but more importantly for me, anti aging. It's soap free too. Soap is terrible for your face! Growing up in Florida, my skin suffered a lot of sun damage. My skin...

    Old Navy

    Ahhhh, the one holes between the thighs dilemma! Been there, done that at least a dozen times. Even when I was thin, I had fatty inner thighs that would rub together. I just had to get rid of my favorite jeans because of the holes in between the legs. I'll miss those jeans. :(

    Michael Chabon writing people of size

    I haven't read that particular Chabon book. I have read most of his other work including The Amazing Adventures of Kavelier and Clay. It is one of the most enthralling, interesting books I have ever read. You're right. He is a genius!

    Too fat to get a job?

    Job hunting can be difficult as it is. Add a little self doubt and insecurity and it can be just plain awful. Having said that, you CAN and you WILL find a job regardless of your size. When I was thin, I was turned down by three of my dream employers. Since I've been fat, I've interviewed twice...

    Weekend Haul

    Must have those yellow shoes! Sooooooooooo cute. Love them. They're perfect for fall here in Chicago, especially since they appear to be vinyl or patent leather.

    Ummm, thanks for your concern?

    Yea, that's pretty much it! She's a total stranger. I gotta love it though - a trained medical professional who judges someone based on their weight and their weight alone. As ya'll know, there are so many other factors. Furthermore, nobody is MAKING me gain weight. I'm a fattie all on my own. I...

    Fat Families

    I am, by far, the biggest person in my family. My parents are both fit and thin. They probably work out at least 300 days of the year. My brother is a nutritionist, bike messenger and triathlete with about 3% bodfat. His entire existence revolves around being fit. I know that they love me no...

    Ummm, thanks for your concern?

    I received this email today. Obviously, I am not going to respond, however I am somewhat offended that this person assumes I am ignorant about the dangers of being overweight. I have a master's degree and am a bright woman, but apparently, she thinks her PhD outweighs any common sense I may...

    Are you fatter in real life?

    I'm just FAT. In real life, in pictures, in dreams, in your wet dreams, in heaven, in hell. I'm fat. Sometimes I forget that I am fat, but that doesn't change the fact that I am! :eat2:

    Hairspray!!!!

    I really liked Hairspray but I was super disappointed that John Travolta was casted as the fat mother. There are not nearly enough roles for fat women in Hollywood and ALWAYS roles for me - fat or otherwise. I just wish JW would have casted a bio woman. Having said that, I loved the film. I...

    I Am So Pissed Off!!!

    I understand how you feel. Someone recently contacted me through the Dimensions matching system, and he emailed me some really hurtful things about my weight today. I was confused, because he was the one who contacted me. The text of his last email is below, because I told him he needed to...
