I am 5′ 3 1/2″ tall. I wear a Red #2 in Right Fit Jeans from Lane Bryant.
Based on my BMI I am a “candidate” for lap band surgery.
I am shocked. Not shocked in the “OMG, I’m so fat” but in the “OMG, a doctor would butcher my insides just because I’m this size” kind [...]

I have had such an urge to do yoga lately and am adding to my yoga DVD collection. I’ve also been do a bit of cardio and strength training. But I really just feel like doing yoga every day (with some pilates thrown in).
My long term, very future goal is do have a daily yoga [...]

I’ve been waiting for my fricken Oprah “Aha” moment and it has yet to come.
I don’t think there really is one. I think I just need to push through the muck and do what I need to do. I need to try some “diet” changes to see if they help my horrendous adult acne (which [...]
I’m Puffy

I think I’ve gained a bit of weight plus my period is starting today. And I am having a life change start tomorrow that I’m not too thrilled about (but doing it for the greater good that will put the family in a much happier spot – just the initial doing it is getting me [...]
One Year Tomorrow

Not that I have been hugely active the last few months – but tomorrow it’s been one year since I started this blog.
Have I lost any weight? Nope! Have I yo-yoed up and down, like I used to? Nope!
Have I gained a bit of sanity and appreciation for my body this last year? Yup!
Where I Am

Overall, non-thoughts about my body.
Occasional negative ones…
Almost always, redirecting myself from negative thoughts…
But still not treating my body right with nourishing food and exercise…

I’ve gone into lurk mode. Mainly from my phone, too. Reading up on the fatosphere a couple times a week
My skin has been breaking out like mad for several months so I am working on prepping my mind to try some things nutritionally to see if it helps. We’ll see…
Just Not In The Mood

I’ve been feeling pretty blah about blogging lately. I don’t feel like I have anything interesting to say, any new insights, not even any new complaints! And I have barely been reading my favorite IE/FA blogs as well.
What’s up with that?
Bathing Suits
Posted in Body Acceptance, Body Image, Fat Acceptance, Self-Esteem on April 6, 2008 | 1 Comment »
I have a weekend conference next week and the fam is coming along since it’s in beautiful Monterey. I just realized the hotel has an indoor pool and I know Z would love that. So she not only needs a new bathing suit but I am 99% sure I need one as well. [...]
“It’s Just Baby Fat”

Busy week here so not much time to post. Z and I used a Toys R Us gift card for her this week (she got a hobby horse – wheee!) and while there I saw two toys that made me do a double take. America’s Top Model has a doll now. I [...]
