A Plateau in FA development

So its been a while since I last posted. Partly its been due to computer and internet issues, but I feel it's also partly because I feel I've come to a plateau in my FA development. I haven't any new books to read, and I feel comfortable with the place I'm at right now. Over the summer I think I will turn the attention to general fat and FA issues that affect me, rather than my FA development. Keep an eye out for the next post.

Quick Updates

Quite a lot has happened since I last posted, so I just wanted to do a quick update.

  • I finished my exams, so now I'm just waiting for my results. In theory this means I have slightly more time to blog.
  • I finally got my hands on Lessons From the Fatosphere and devoured it in less than four days.
  • I also downloaded a copy of You Count, Calories Don't which I'm currently working my way through. It's not as good as Health At Every Size and I don't agree with everything the author has to say, but it's worth a read anyway.
  • I spent a weekend doing lots of exercise running round after kids at a St John Badger Camp. I felt utterly knackered but had great fun. Oh yeah, and I also pushed a minibus round a field.
  • I got a new tattoo. It say's "No Day But Today" and is on my right inside forearm. It's a message I want to apply to my life and now the tattoo is a constant reminder of how I want to live my life.
  • I've started packing to move out of the house I've been living in for the past two years. This is making me very sad and very nostalgic, but is also good exercise.
  • I've not yet started the cycling every morning thing I wanted to try, but there's time yet. If truth be told I'm still recovering from Badger Camp. And I really need to go to bed before 2am to really get this going.
  • I started a second blog, called the Chuck-It Cook. I plan for this blog to detail my adventures and misadventures on the kitchen, and I consider this a vital step on my path to Fat Acceptance. This blog is saying "I'm a fat woman, I enjoy cooking and eating and there's nothing wrong with that".
I think that's pretty much all for now. Hopefully I'll have another update for you in the next week.
