Don’t point your ideal at me!
Society and it’s every changing ideals. Thin. Fat. Chubby. Fit. Muscles. Tan, no tan. On and on it goes. Sometimes I wonder if I’ll ever be on the right side of history. My entire adult {and teenage} life the focus was on slim models, waifs and being a total glamazon. I contemplated what it would have meant…

Leggings as pants, almost {She Wore What}
If you ran into me most days in Winter I would look like this. For work on a back office day, for casual running to the shops. My fall back outfit in this weather is tunic, longline cardigan, leggings and boots. Apply a thrown together ponytail and minimal make-up and hey presto there I am. This is…

It turns out I have a rather vivid imagination {WW Diaries}
{Weight Watchers provided me with 6 months membership to their Weight Watchers Unlimited program for editorial consideration as per my disclosure policy} I was nervous before I attended my first Weight Watchers meeting. I had visions of walking in the door, being stripped back to my crop top and leggings and being weighed in front of the room. The…

Date Night and The Gambler.
Sometimes we bust out of the ordinary and go on a date. Sometimes it’s planned and sometimes it’s not. When it’s planned we almost never go. Isn’t that weird? It seems if we have to do it, because it’s on the calendar it just loses its appeal. Last night we decided at the last minute to…

Neon Pink at the Races {She Wore What – BONUS POST}
The races are something I hum and haaah over. Sometimes I like to go. Sometimes I’d rather stay home. I find it difficult to negotiate the standard of dress at a races where some ladies wear heels, hats and dresses and some wear jeans and tees. Each to their own, I say, but it does…

Black Shift Dress {She Wore What}
Can I just start by saying when Hubby saw this one he was like, woooooah, nice. I think it’s the length. I think it’s because normally this dress would have tights {at least} under it. This time I thought what the heck. Why not. Then freaked out and added tights later. Haha. It’s not that…

Smart People Blogs
I popped over to read this article about full fat versus reduced fat products because I was interested. You know me, I prefer to drink the whole fat milk and enjoy that then drink skim milk and get confused with a glass of water. And that was LONG before I first gave up sugar and found out…

I’m proud right now, just to be clear.
I know I am supposed to be ashamed, or at least a little embarrassed about my body, but I’m not. That’s the word one the street. Being fat means you’re lazy, slow, stupid {what the?} so I should be ashamed. But I’m none of those things. I’m fat, that’s all. Right now my body is…
