My fat ass.

... the journey to find my inner stripper.

I’m 28, goth-ish and I live in Seattle. I’ve got two cats and a life partner- we’ve been together for 9 years. I grew up in Western New York, I’ve been a vegetarian for 16 years and I’m a fatty.

I don’t think that fat is a nasty thing to say, I don’t hate my body now nor have I ever. I am just on the search for a skinnier me so I’ll look hot in my wedding photos. I am recanting my tales of this weight loss goal here, as publicly as I can, because maybe I’ll help someone out, or inspire, or maybe you’ll laugh at me or with me- doesn’t matter, it’s the internet and I does what I wants.

Please, feel free to ask me anything.




So if anyone out there has been watching, you may have noticed that I haven’t updated this in a while… I guess I just sort of lost sight of my goals.

Is it strange to be slightly afraid of losing weight? It’s not that I’m “comfortable” in my current weight, but I’m afraid I won’t feel the same about myself once I drop it… As I’ve told you before, I’ve never been below 200… and even at that weight I remember getting a TON more attention than I do now. From men, people who “can’t believe I did it, omg!” and just everyone in general…. being fat is like wearing a cloak of invisibility, people love to ignore you or treat you like a last resort.

For so many people that is a giant reason why they’re trying to lose weight- to be noticed. But I already get noticed quite a lot because I’m a fairly outgoing and boisterous person….so whenever I drop down in lbs, I sort of go into overload mode and can’t handle it. Because along with the positive attention, comes the negative.

I always told Marius that I might not feel comfortable at my goal weight- it might scare me….but he never really ‘gets’ that idea….

In any event, I am hoping to get to the YMCA and sign up for a membership this week. I’m determined to start working out some more, I just plain miss being active. (I say underneath the covers on my couch with my cat…..hah.)
