THIS FAT OLD LADY’S ALL ABOUT ME MONDAY – I’VE LOST MY MIND

And oh, how I miss it. What I seem to be losing is agility in thinking. And the ability to multi-task in my thinking. This is most obvious in trying to absorb new music. Holy fuck. Dealing with notes, words and rhythms. My brain just gets increasingly numb. And I get more and more frustrated…

THIS FAT OLD LADY’S FAT FRIDAY – NO DUH

I swear (often – as you probably already know) – I get tired of seeing studies about weight loss that simply rehash the same old/same old. For example, here is a study about studies!

THIS FAT OLD LADY’S TBT – WHY I’M NOT A DOG PERSON

I don’t hate dogs. Some dogs, I actually like quite a bit. But I do not want to own a dog. My family had one dog. I don’t even remember what her name was. She was a stray, largish and her coat was blond. I firmly believe she was the basis of all the stupid…

THIS FAT OLD LADY’S ALL ABOUT ME MONDAY – BORING FOOD

I am not, by any stretch of the imagination, what one would call a “foodie”. For one thing, there are a whole slew of foods that I have no interest in every tasting. To add to this natural predilection, I grew up in Michigan in a household where salt was an exotic spice. I pretty…

THIS FAT OLD LADY’S FAT FRIDAY – A ROSE IS A ROSE

Read a very good article by Cat Pausé (Changing the language) about how the British Psychological Society wants to change how we talk about fat people – they recommend using “identity first” language. I.e., instead of obese people say people with obesity or people living with obesity. These yahoos actually think this change will reduce…
