Striving for Balance
Wednesday, December 08, 2010
I've come across a very thought-provoking article written by a formerly obese person who dubs herself as "The Thinnest Fat Woman in the World." She was once a proponent of the Fat Acceptance movement and although she has made radical shifts away from this, she offers some insights which she has taken from this experience:

The level of acceptance and balance she has achieved I think offers an important angle for those looking to make their new, healthy and well lifestyle a permanent change.
I'm curious to hear everyone's thoughts, reactions!
Also, another article along the "Buy Nothing - Value Everything" thinking:

Have a great day everyone!
