Losing it...(in SO many ways)

 Chrissy ― http://www.somanyways.net

Fatty Fatty Bo Batty…

Losing it...(in SO many ways) ― Is fat immoral? I gotta’ tell you before hand, I resent politicians and the First Lady deciding they want to tell me what I can and can not put in my body, and how much or how little of it is acceptable to them. It reminds me of prohibition, ...

I Just Like To Smile

Losing it...(in SO many ways) ― I kissed my scale as I got off it, apologizing for making it hold that new extra weight. No, I’m not overjoyed at gaining two pounds but I’m not upset either. I fully expected to gain two or three and prepared myself. I didn’t ...
