I’ve been thinking a lot about fat lately, though probably not in the way you may think. Before you even consider asking: No, I’m not planning on going on any diets any time soon. I’ve been thinking about how ridiculous it is to assume that fat = unhealthy and thin = healthy. I’ve known a fair amount of uber-thin people who eat nothing but loads of junk and I know “fat” people who eat a lot healthier and exercise more. But, “fat kills!” right? Well sure it can, but being too thin can kill too. What I’m trying to get at here is that “fat” doesn’t have to mean: ugly, lazy, unhealthy, etc.
Since I’ve started to think about fat I’ve been noticing a lot more sites that agree with my ideas of how beautiful ”fat” people, specifically women, are. So here are some of the sites I’ve been going to that I highly recommend if you’re tired of “fat” women being regarded as anything (and everything) other than gorgeous.
Eat a Cheesburger - I love this site because it was kind of my gateway drug to awesome fat women. I really like their Rules too.
Fat Rant - Joy Nash’s Blog. I think Joy Nash is hilarious, beautiful and just all around great. She also posts a lot of links and videos to other wonderful and amazing fat women. She makes videos, too and as far as I’m concerned she’s on the same level as the Liams when it comes to comedy.
Ps. Here is a link to a great story* that I stumbled on to today.
Pps. Here is the video for Joy Nash’s Fat Rant
*Note: I’ve never looked at anything other than this story on this website so I can’t say I’m recommending this website, I just thought it was a good story.



Thanks for the shout out girl! Great post. I totally agree with your thoughts on the myth that fat=unhealthy and thin=healthy (a future post of ours). It’s amazing how brainwashed we have become in thinking this is actually true. We are all so indoctrinated with the idea that fat kills and get this…an article I just read is pointing to obesity as a cause for global warming! It’s utterly ridiculous! (That’s a future post too). Thanks for reading and keep that beautiful mind alive!
