Honesty, Promise Me
A wonderful post at Scale and Perspective about diet self-sabotage:
"I didn't have the A-ha! moment until last weekend when I went to log into [big on-line dating service] and thought, 'OMG, I've gained weight. I can't possibly start dating now!' And I felt so.very.relieved."
And while I'm on the subject of honesty, I also loved this post at Fatty McBlog:
"This blog is not about weight loss, and I am not about to say that these pictures inspired me to shut my mouth to fattening food and start walking 3 miles a day because that would probably be a lie, but I couldn't make this post funny for you all because there was nothing funny about the pictures. I am 25 years old and my body shouldn't look like it does."
So many brave women out there, all struggling with how to love ourselves. I salute you!

What I don't understand is why she is insisting on dating at all if it terrifies her. Is she incomplete without a man or something?
Thanks for the link, Mo. I do prefer your words: Wonderful & Honest to the way I feel after I post something like that which is Neurotic and Self-absorbed.
