    Sears, how do I hate thee?

    Yeah, Sears is still working the more matronly fashions in my neck of the woods, too. I don't think they'll ever stop. I haven't shopped at my local Sears in about 6 months, but the last time I was there, I didn't notice the juniors plus section and was wondering where it went. I hope they...

    Want!

    To an '80s party. ;) And I say that in a good way. I love retro style and this dress definitely has it going on.

    What Are You Listening To? Redux

    I went to see Harry Potter yesterday and loved it. Was very happily surprised to hear a Nick Cave song in the movie, in the Harry/Hermione dance scene. "O Children", from Nick Cave's 2004 double album, Abattoir Blues/The Lyre of Orpheus. The clip is an homage to all things Potter, including...

    BBW Confessions thread

    I took my kitties to the vet this morning because they both need a bath. Now I'm home in my kitty-less apartment and I don't know what to do with myself without them around. I'll pick them up later this afternoon, but I'm having a bit of 'empty nest syndrome' at the moment without my kitties. :(

    The New Cooking Channel

    I'm loving the Cooking channel. I was getting tired of all the game shows on Food Network. The Cooking channel is kind of like Mtv2 for the Food Network. I find nothing more relaxing than watching someone else cook. Personally, if I could watch nothing but Spice Goddess all day, I'd be a...

    You're welcome to your opinion. Mine is different and you won't convince me that OA doesn't judge people on their eating habits. I've said what I need to say on the subject, and any further attempts to convince me will fall on deaf ears.

    It's not the people who go to OA meetings who are judging you (at least not openly). It's the fact that every tenet of OA is based on the premise of judging one's eating habits and placing moral judgment on food ("good" and "bad" food). That's my issue. If you want to continue supporting an...

    Looking for support is fine. I have no issue with that. What I have an issue with is that people look for support with an organization that passes moral judgment on their eating habits. I'd hope that they'd have a better sense of self than to put themselves through that kind of mindfuck...

    Mike & Molly

    You've missed my point completely. I'm not advocating that fat people stay out of sight and stay silent, whether they're a "good"/"healthy" fat or not. What I'm saying is that one's medical issues and one's eating habits are one's own personal business and not up for discussion or judgment...

    Mike & Molly

    I get what you're saying and don't disagree with you that it's a good thing to examine one's emotions and the behaviors one is engaging in that are a direct result of those emotions, including eating a lot of food. But in my opinion, it's a private issue, one best discussed and examined with a...

    But see, here's the thing: you're pronouncing moral judgment on people's reasons for eating ("people eat for unhealthy reasons"). I can understand doing that for drug and alcohol abuse, which is physically harmful to the drug or alcohol abuser, and can be physically harmful to others in their...

    True, OA is not a weight loss business and doesn't spend millions of dollars per year on advertising. But here's the thing: OA professes to pronounce moral judgment on people's reasons for eating. The idea that eating for emotional or psychological reasons is "wrong" just doesn't fly with me...

    As a woman, do you like natural fibers or synthetic ones for your clothes?

    Agreed, great pic! You look very serious, but very lovely. That shade of lipstick really suits you.

    Who Taught You to Hate Your Beautiful Body?

    I'm fortunate that I don't get a lot of fat hate/fear from my family. I get a lot of other kinds of hate and fear from them, but not fat hate. I got teased about my looks in elementary school, so I think that started the self- and body-hatred. Society and the popular media have certainly done...

    Who Taught You to Love Your Beautiful Body?

    Me. A handful of guys I've dated over the years who have been truly attracted to me and everything I have to offer. They've often served as a reminder to me when I get down on myself that I am attractive and have something to offer. Wendy Shanker's book, The Fat Girl's Guide To Life. The...

    I love hummus of almost any kind. My favorites are Trader Joe's garlic and roasted red pepper hummus. Yum.

    Do you tip for take-out?

    I don't tip for take-out. The tip, as far as I'm concerned, is for the service - either waiting my table, or delivering food. If there's no delivery or wait service going on, no tip is necessary. For delivery or wait service, I always tip 20%.

    Mike & Molly

    I agree with you about OA, but what you're not quite getting here is that just because a person is fat, it doesn't mean they're going to toe the line with fat acceptance principles. It's unfortunate that every fat person doesn't love themselves for who they are, but that's just not going to...
