Single & Ready to Mingle

I have been single for just about six months. Between the holidays and studying for the California Bar Exam, dating wasn't really a priority! Now... I have dove in headfirst into the wide world of internet dating! 

I am fat. A BBW. Thick. Chubby. Pleasantly plump. Call it what you would like. I am comfortable with all or none of those phrases! 

I have somewhat embraced the #effyourbeautystandards campaign and LOVE following so many of the #bodypositive advocates all over the internet! I am more comfortable with my body than I have ever been and love every roll on my belly and dimple on my thighs. 

Don't get me wrong - I have my moments - where I get a little down and think, "Gee, life would be so much easier in so many ways, if I just lost 100 pounds!" Which, I would still technically be overweight even if I lost 100 pounds, and it would just be something else bothering me! 

I eat healthy 5/7 days of the week and the other two... well the other two I really don't care or pay attention to being healthy - I live my life, go out for drinks, go out to eat and enjoy every minute of it! 

Anyhow, the reason for the random blog - having started dating.... I have encountered some HORRIFIC examples of men, and some pretty amazing examples - and some of the stories can be quite hilarious... after I have shared some with friends, I figured I would start a blog as my "journal" of dating antics, shenanigans and just general dating confessions of a fat girl! 

I would really love to find out who created this image - but there is no source link through any of the pins on pinterest!!!
