Long title! Anyway, I am sick of this common misconception/double standard. I’ve known plenty of fat, schlubby guys who just expected women to fall at their feet, and not just any women, mind you…they wanted women that fit most mainstream “beauty standards” in some way. What the hell?
Look, women are [...]

OK, I just had to comment on this because it made me laugh. It’s been awhile since I thought about it because I tend to ignore the stupid, but a somewhat dim sorority girl wrote a very long-winded editorial on why it’s so wrong when women don’t shave their pits, and this was all [...]
Being Fat Isn’t Pretty

I’ve touched on this topic as it pertains to my weight loss before, but people have known me as a fat girl since probably 1996. I’m 26 now and that was 13 years ago, so I’ve been fat roughly half my life. I am completely qualified to talk about all things related to [...]
This blog’s future after I reach my goal…
Posted in eating habits, human behavior, my weight loss, opinion, tagged blog, diet, eating, economy, fat, financial crisis, goals, names, weight on 03/18/2009 | Leave a Comment »
So I thought about this. Once I reach my goal weight (31 more pounds to go!), I’ll have to change the name of this blog to, “Amy Lost and Won,” or something like that. Or I could just change it to a name that reflects the topics I like to focus on, which [...]

“I’ll eat this meat, until my innie turns into an outie.”
I tell you if a woman made that same declaration on a commercial for a fast food place, it would not go over nearly as well. The sentiment that exercise, or watching what you eat, is somehow for women only [...]
“Now, don’t become an anorexic!”

Oh my freaking gord, I hate it when people notice how much weight I’ve lost and then decide that they should warn me against becoming an anorexic! This pisses me off because to me I take it as people assuming that I’m losing weight for vanity alone, and that I must be a candidate [...]
Stupidest. Product. Ever.

Last night I was watchin’ a little bit o idiot box before I decided to turn in for the night, and I saw this gem of an exercise product.
If you’re gullible enough to buy this, go ahead!
The commercial was absolutely hilarious, because they kept showing women using it, their boobs bouncing up and down. [...]
Deprivation vs. self-control

So I’ve been thinking about something. Over the holidays, I went to a bar-crawl that was organized by an old high-school friend, a mini high-school reunion of sorts, a consortium of townies. Everyone noticed how much weight I’ve dropped which was amazing. I got asked an interesting question at one point.
“So, do [...]

OK, I stumbled upon this article from June of ‘08 on the UK’s Daily Mail site when I was searching for some inspirational stories. Basically, this is of teh $t00pid! It made me want to bang my head against my desk.
Basically, this is a story of a woman who entered a [...]
The inability to handle criticism
Posted in human behavior, opinion, tagged anger, contructive, criticism, criticize, tough love on 12/27/2008 | Leave a Comment »
Some people have a really hard time taking criticism. Some people get depressive and down on themselves if they receive even constructive and helpful criticism, and some people turn into a powderkeg and explode with defensive anger at those who criticize them. I used to be the former, I would never get mad [...]
