Holy ****. The (prepackaged) tofu sandwich had almost DOUBLE the calories. That's bonkers. How is this allowed!?

I'M IN! This is the best idea. Ravenclaw all the way! (I just dressed as a Ravenclaw student for Comic-Con!) Anyone from any of the houses, feel free to friend me! I like friends :)

Ragen has a blog called "Dances With Fat" and is a fat activist, so she calls herself fat and does not consider it an insult. She considers it a fact. And Paul calls himself "Big Paul" because he's about 500 pounds so...yeah. He is fine with it too. I know how to refer to my friends, but thanks.

Well then you're lucky. My fat friend Ragen was out running and someone stopped their car, called her a fat b****, and threw eggs at her. My friend Paul, who is very big, had someone come up to him at a restaurant and yell at him in front of everyone for ordering something in Alfredo sauce. They are both in their late 30s.…

No, I don't. If you're talking about someone with Dwarfism, that's another issue entirely because that's a disability. And I don't believe I see tall people getting heckled on the street or given dirty looks at restaurants or treated in any way like someone who is fat gets treated.

I would choose a tall person for basketball and a short person for a short character. I do not believe that is an issue.

If it's cooking that's needed, the one who has worked in kitchens is asked to help. If it's heavy lifting, the one who is the…

My motivation: shopping at regular clothing stores again, and actually being able to find things in my size. My kryptonite: Self-doubt. I totally sabotage myself. http://www.myfitnesspal.com/blog/PumpkinTwerker/view/that-little-voice-663152

Oh man. I have SO struggled with this. I actually just wrote my first blog post and it talks about that a lot. http://www.myfitnesspal.com/blog/PumpkinTwerker/view/that-little-voice-663152 So much of it is self-sabotage, and me just not believing that I could do it. I want to change that mindset so much, it's just tough…

Please friend me as well, I am looking for some real support. I made my first blog post today and I am starting food tracking tomorrow. My diary is open, and my blog is public: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/blog/PumpkinTwerker/view/that-little-voice-663152 I hope to make some new friends on here soon!
