Turn off the damn lights people, Wednes is having a migraine.
This will severely lessen the chances of my having EMDR this afternoon.
Fie!

Say, if any of you want to support my NaNoEdMo endeavors thru the magic of buying me things, you should feel free to buy me this thing. Normally I think Cafe Press is silly and lame, but this is surprisingly not. Anyway, that madness began at midnight last night, and I have to edit this manuscript for 50 hours. Jokey thing is, I was planning to do that anyway and will probably have finished in two weeks (with the 50 hours, not the book).

It appears that the good people at Big Fat Blog have put together this factual thingy called ironically, Big Fat Facts, detailing the differences between what "they" tell us about fat, and what the truth actually is. Even though I try to stay current on such things, several of the facts here were new to me.

While I recognize that I could do more to improve my eating and excersize habits, I have also come to recognize that drug and wieght loss pridcuts companies (even Weight Watchers) are scamming, dishonest, moneymaking machines. I realize that many companies whole advertising ploy is to make people (especially women) think they are too ugly, fat, smelly or whatever to be attractive to men (which is what all women should be rabidly striving for, dontchaknow?) so they need to buy some product to fix that. But when it comes to wieght loss products, it goes one step further. They don't say "fat is ugly" they say "fat will make you die." I've even seen commercials that tacitly assert that fat will not only make you die, but you'll leave your children behind and they will be sad and angry you didn't take care of yourself. Got that, everyone? Fat will make your children cry!!

So with that in mind, revel in the facts.

Hey, [livejournal.com profile] sudrin! Here's a thing where you can pick what kind of boobs you like, then watch them bounce around.
You can also shop for what looks to be some very supportive bras.

'Studies have shown that people who are heavy and fit are far healthier than people who are thin and never exercise.'

Shocking stuff there.

Yes, it's quite grippy.

I can't tell if you're being sarcastic. ;-}

I have tried to explain that to people often, and they do not seem to beleive me. People just can't seem to grasp that a) fat people can and do excersize and b) that we can be healthy. My cholesterol is lower than that of many thin people I know.
