What’s So Bad About Being Fat
Posted by roselightning on July 28, 2009
What is so bad about being fat? Why the big push to turn us all into size 7′s with hour glass figures? What if I like my fat?
Societies obsession with being thin is just that, an obsession. Fat is not an embarrasment. It is stored energy. It is not a bad word. It is just a word.
I want to start by just getting the word itself desensitized a bit. Just say the word until it doesn’t mean anything any more. Try it.
Fat, fat, fat, fat, fat, fat, fat, fat, fat, fat, fat, fat. See? It’s just a word.
Right now I am tipping the scales at 251 pounds. Well, that is a bit too much weight for comfort. But every ounce of it belongs to me.
Once many years ago I was on a diet and had a number of credit card bills that I was paying down. I woke up one morning and had the awful thought that I did not own my house, my car, my refridgerator, my furniture and I had just lost 5% of my body on that silly diet. I got so sick that I could not get out of bed for 3 days!
So, let’s take some of the serious edge off being fat. Anyone know any fat jokes?
