Salutations™!!

Essentially, through my entire adult life, I’ve struggled with my weight. I’ve fluctuated up and down, huge, big, whatever. Currently, I’m the biggest I’ve ever been. I’m over 300 lbs. I go between 302-314. At least those are when I can bring myself to actually get on the scale.

Now, what bothers me the most isn’t that I am fat. Yes, I said it. Fat. F-A-T. Fat. It doesn’t bother me to say that. It doesn’t bother me that I am fat (like I said). What bothers me is how I feel whilst being fat. I’m sluggish. Lethargic. Mopey. Slow. I ache. I hurt. The adjectives go on. I am working on that with Liz Hronek, Miss Fit Boss.

But, that’s not the point of this post.

I was reading another blogger’s post, from someone who simply goes by Your Fat Friend. I would love for you to read this post. Please. Do it for me. She brings up a lot of points that I agree with. Really, there’s nothing in here that I disagree with. She just lays it out that being called fat shouldn’t be a stigma or meant as mean. You don’t feel bad for telling someone, “hey! your hair is brown” or, “your car is lime green!” I mean, you may be silly for that, but you’re just stating the obvious. I know my hair is was brown and my last car was lime green. I know I’m fat and I think I wear it well.

Do I wish I didn’t wear it at all? Well, yes. But, there’s a lot of factors stacked against me.

First off, I do two podcasts (minimum) that have to do with beer/alcohol. So, I drink beer. It’s the ultimate sin to taste and spit it out. Only in wine competitions do I do that. I’m also a foodie. My social media revolves around food, I have a food podcast, I write a food blog. There’s a lot of food. A lot of good food.

I embrace and joke about my fatness. I sometimes say that fat is my superpower, if not my beard. Also, I love what Sam the Cooking Guy says, “if fat means flavor (and it does) then I’m f*****g delicious!”

So, what I’m saying (and what Your Fat Friend says) is don’t feel like you’re being mean for saying I’m fat. Only if it’s meant maliciously is it mean. Otherwise, you’re just stating facts.

I’m going to grab a big fat something and eat it right now…

Until tomorrow, I’m still fat…
Scorp out!

Salutations™!!

In my infinite wisdom (or lack thereof), I forgot to schedule a guest on tonight’s The Less Desirables. So we had a roundtable discussion and Danielle talked about going to The Big What Festival this past weekend. She talked about the fun she had, the people she met, the bands that she saw and the bands that were coming to Bull’s Tavern. 20190814_194006-01

Bethany talked about her daughter moving to Hawaii, new cigars and such.

And I talked about how I will be doing some work with Liz Hronek, aka Miss Fit Boss. I told you last Wednesday of the connection I felt with her about my weight problem. We talked about how to at least try to combat that over the weekend and into this week. Liz is teaching me to believe that I can get to a reasonable goal of under 300lbs and then work on other goals of less weight from that point. But, anyway, she’s awesome to work with. I just wanted to say that again.

You can listen to our episode HERE.

Until tomorrow, same blog channel…
Scorp out!

Salutations™!!

Tonight, on The Less Desirables, we had Allan Younger and several folks from the Small Business Center at Forsyth Tech’s programs in to talk about what they do.Forsyth_SBC_4c

We had ‘Trice Jeffreys from Trice’s Eatz, Annette Nichols – who is starting her business, Too Sweet for Diabetes, Chrissy Klumber who owns Himalayan Hideaway Salt Cave, Aaron Singleton from Aaron Singleton Communications, Cynthia Reavis who does several things but she was there to represent the SBC.

The one that hit me the most, though, was Liz Hronek from Miss Fit Boss. Not that her business was more interesting or anything like that. All the businesses were amazing. But, Liz is a body empowerment coach. Yeah, she’s a personal trainer and all that, but this is living, breathing proof this stuff works. Liz used to be 300 lbs. She’s lost 150 lbs. She looks amazing. She has a great smile and attitude. No, settle down, I wasn’t drooling over her. Yes, she’s beautiful, but not just on the outside.

I talked with her about how I’d love to not be 300+ lbs. She talked with me about believing in myself and not beating myself up about it. Self-worth and understanding my “power” is important. I’m not going to give any more as I want you to hear the whole thing for yourself. Let’s just say that she made me at least feel better about getting started on a better me.

Listen to more about Liz and the other guests’ stories and businesses HERE.

Until tomorrow, same blog channel…
