I have a confession, but don’t judge me. I’m a fatty.
That’s right. I am a a big ol’ fatty fatty of the clan Boombalatty.
But I do not write here today in some narcissistic pursuit of a cathartic revelation in which I proudly declare that “I ♥ my curves” or “curve” in my case since my shape is rapidly approaching the spherical.
No, I am not here to tell you that I look good fat. I don’t. I am here to tell you that I am good fat.
What say you, Patrick? Everyone knows….

Simple rule to lose weight: Eat no white at night. (By white I mean white foods e.g. pasta, potatoes, bread … ) Try it and I guarantee a loss of at least 5 pounds by the end of the month.

OK I just BUSTED out laughing at this. Awesome. I am looking at taking off a bunch of pounds and I know the regime I am going to have to follow and don't look forward to it. It takes an awful lot of time and self-focus to be "in shape" all the time. (Like training for marathons, etc.) I gave up the gym for the family and instantly gained 15%. Yikes!
BTW- What is almost as humorous as your article is how some people on "the Reg" just "don't get it." I personally LOVE the way you write and love your back and forth, between serious, silly and sarcastic in the same sentence. Some folks just demand that you be serious ALL the time or humorous all the time. Personally, I am not like that either. People always tell me they never know when I am joking (or serious). Fine with me.
Anyway – thanks for a GREAT post.

Better to be a happy fatty with decent priorities than one of these pathetic body image obsessed "fitness" worshippers. We are all dying, people need to work harder on fixing up their hearts and minds and less on a losing battle for youth and beauty.
