11 years ago this Christmas Eve we were having a family meal and some guy became abusive to my mother, who is very fat, because he had to pull his seat in when we were leaving. I absolutely beat the hell out of him, and whilst i wasn't proud of it i have never regretted it. As far as im concerned, it's right up there with…

what are you going to do when you've lost the weight? are you going to start eating the way you did before? because if the answer to that is yes, then you'll just gain the weight back and i'd say there's very little point in you losing the 100lbs in the first place. it is hard, and dieting requires a huge amount of…

there is hope. I studied art, and i make my living partly from drawings & photoshop and i also have my own little business making cakes. one job leaves me looking at the human body and manipulating it, the other leaves me surrounded by sweet foods all day! no wonder i have body image issues! i was one of those people who…

I'm Welsh. Not sure what our national dish would be, but Laverbread deserves a shoutout. It is made from seaweed and looks vile, but tastes fantastic. The Japanese have something similar, but they cook it a bit differently. I do make welsh cakes occasionally, although not so much these days since they're so high in…

just remind your boyfriend that they get to look, he gets to touch. he shouldn't be angry with those other guys. they just want to sleep with you for the same reasons your husband does. They're just human like him. so long as he trusts you not to cheat, the other men are pretty irrelevant.

im 28. I have dated 3 years younger and 21 years older. on reflection, whilst 21 years older was great you do have to think about wanting children etc. a 49 year old woman is probably not looking to have a child, so maybe that one was always doomed from the start. still, the love making was the most intense i've ever…

there's a fat group mentality-- and you've left the fat group. some people WILL be jealous.

The answer's yes. I took a couple of red ones from the bank when playing monopoly last Christmas. I didn't have to, but i just couldnt help myself. It's not my fault! I'm wired to be this way!

yeah, we all know about the losing weight bit, but a lot of people don't know that losing weight is just stage 1. stage 2 involves building muscle and thus changing your body composition. it's not easy, but i'd say it's time to start eating as many calories as you burn (ie maintenance) and then lifting some heavy weights.…

yes, we have scones in Wales as well. Welsh cakes & scones are similar, but not the same thing. both are deadly though!

i'm right with you on this one. you've just described my standard home visit. i dont think for a second that my mother doesn't love me, but it feels so cruel and vindictive.

Tread very carefully with welsh cakes. not only do they taste good, but they have that 'once you pop you can't stop' quality to them. i think they are also known as 'welsh cookies' in the US, although i didn't think they were popular so i added the pics.

Hey thanks guys. I don't really deserve sympathy, but I'm happy that people do understand where i was coming from. when i get these comments from her, it makes me so angry. i will be making it up to her in some way that doesn't involve food, and i guess i will just have to put up with the comments. maybe, in time, she will…
