Thanks for the support and great quote.<BR/><BR/>mo pie: I've actually been reading Big Fat Deal and Fatshionista for years but somehow I never found your other blog. <BR/><BR/>I do love myself but I hate having to wear this fat suit for so many years of this journey. <BR/><BR/>Thanks for stopping by and thanks the years of positive advice on BFD. I'm usually sneaking a read at work so I don't get to comment much, if at all.MBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01430150187237706515noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3897733797182084069.post-102061676645298792009-03-24T11:27:00.000-04:002009-03-24T11:27:00.000-04:00I am not saying you shouldn't try to lose weight i...I am not saying you shouldn't try to lose weight if that is your goal, or that you shouldn't try to overcome disordered eating. But you might also want to try reading some more size positive stuff, like Fatshionista (http://www.fatshionista.com/cms/) or Big Fat Deal (which is my blog, at http://www.bfdblog.com/) because you don't have to stop loving yourself or finding yourself beautiful at every size on your journey.mo piehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12320627370276331465noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3897733797182084069.post-12972685551224649242009-03-24T05:34:00.000-04:002009-03-24T05:34:00.000-04:00Big hugs from me to you !!

I know it's easy to say and much harder to do but why not pick just one thing this week to do/change and temporarily forget about the rest?<BR/><BR/>Maybe a short walk every day or every 2nd day. Maybe smaller portions. I dunno... maybe just tell me to bugger off :) I just want to help. If you'd like to email me for a chat or to try some mutual motivation feel free. Roni over at ronisweigh found a nice quote recently... I think it went "My response is my responsibility". It struck a chord with me and reminded me that I have a choice when it comes to reacting to different situations.NVhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04392630300561956057noreply@blogger.com
