Rant

Tonight I went to a Toby Keith concert (yes, I like country music...along with a lot of other kinds). I have referred to myself before as "a fat chick." Well, tonight, I think it was confirmed. My butt barely fit into the the seat!! I went to sit down and it was like, "What the hell?" I thought maybe there was something blocking my way. There was, but it wasn't what I thought it was. It was the arms of the chair trying to block me from sitting. Well, I showed it! I literally wiggled the fat into the chair. To the people that sat behind me...I'm sorry that you had to see that "thing" wiggle. I imagine it's not a pretty sight. To the girl that sat next to me...I'm sorry my body was spilling over into your seat. Please note that I was not anywhere close to being the biggest person there...or even in my row!! But seriously, who the HELL hired Twiggy to be the model for the fit of the chair???? Even the really thin girl in front of me seemed to take up more of the chair than she should have...and she looked like she hadn't seen food in a long time.

Now, I imagine some (or all) of you are thinking, "Well, if you're so unhappy with your weight, why don't you do something about it?" Spoken like a thin person. If you've never been fat, than you can't possibly understand that some fat people (like myself) could live on salads for days and lose weight, but put them in a room with a cheese cake (the REALLY good ones you just have to talk about), even if they don't eat it, and they will gain 5-10 pounds. Seriously, though, I plan to start working out tomorrow. We'll see how it goes. Usually, it goes nowhere. I have to think of a strategy to make me stick with it. Any suggestions? Right now, all I can think of doing is making a deal with my husband that for everyday that I don't work out for at least 30 minutes, that I will pay him money. Hopefully this will work. Wish me luck.

Until next time...
