Y’all.   I was fired up going into this podcast, because I’m so tired of this ‘thin’ ideal being preached. Not everybody looks thin, and that’s okay.  Some people are naturally thin, and some people aren’t.   It’s just … not right to tell everyone or advertise that everyone has to look a certain way...Read More »

Gaining weight is hard.  It just is.  It’s hard to hear someone tell you, ‘You need to gain weight.’   Because the diet culture tells you the 10 reasons to lose weight or 10 ways to lose weight after the holidays.   Now, I’m not at all putting down losing weight, because losing weight can...Read More »
