Former Fatty Syndrome

I’m afraid that I might be developing former fatty syndrome even though I’m still kind of fat, and wasn’t exactly desperate when I was fat.

Though I’m thankful that the truth has finally made its way to the mainstream media, in my opinion it’s a bit too little too late. The effects of many of these harmful chemical cocktails saturating our environment, and drugs being sold irresponsibly, has been known for years by both scientists and laymen who read. Back [...]

Here is an answer I gave to someone on Yahoo Answers today who asked how can they love themselves more. ============================ Some people expect good self esteem to come out of nowhere…like you can just start chanting, “I’m okay, you’re okay!” and everything will magically right itself. I don’t believe in that. The most real [...]
