How to be Fat & Happy
A guide for those who want to eat food and enjoy life.
With all of the constant whining that we lose weight, and that we can lose it without any hard work or diet (yeah, right), we can sometimes lose sight of the reasons why it pays to be fat and happy. Reason Number one?
Food
You enjoy it, right? So it eat! Eat it and be happy! Enjoy one of life’s greatest pleasures. Whoever said “Life’s too short to skip dessert” knew what they were talking about.
Of course there are other reasons to be fat and happy, one of which is…
Laziness
The next time you go to the beach, would you rather being doing this…
or be doing this?
Of course, some people love working out all the time. More power to them! Let them enjoy doing what they enjoy. For the rest of us, doesn’t it just feel good to be lazy once in a while? Sure it does. That’s another one of life’s little pleasures. Think of great you’d feel if you got to relax and just be lazy more often.
One of the supposed disadvantages of being fat is that you will supposedly be less attractive. Not at all.
Beauty
Many women (and, of course, many men) are perfectly capable of being curvaceous and attractive. Dimensions Magazine is an example of one online community that specializes in appreciating the big & the beautiful. Learn to love the skin you’re in!
And, finally, the number one reason why it’s great to be fat & happy.
Love
Deep down, you know that those who really care about you will love you no matter what size you are. This is your life, enjoy it. Enjoy your food, your relaxation, and find people who will appreciate you for who you are, not what you look like. That’s where real love is to be found.
So, what do YOU think? Leave me a comment on how you feel about being fat & happy.

I married a chubby lass. Its been nearly thirty years and she’s necver lost a pound – probably gained 25-30. I’ve never tired of telling her she’s still beautiful.

I myself married a light BHM in August and I myself am not attracted to small men, but hey whatever floats someone’s boat, as long as it’s legal. I like when my hubby eats, it makes him happy and keeps his soft little belly nice and full. I think it’s possible to be fat (or chubbby, like my hubby) myself, just make sure to get regular exercise and don’t look at impossibly skinny movie stars, musicians, athletes and models as role models or your self-esteem will plummet.
I mean, how happy is Sascha Gerstner (Helloween guitarist, look him up to answer my questions, please.) when he works out 5 hours a day and then worries about his (obviously nonexistant) weight problem. Do you think this much worrying is healthy? If you are a woman, ask yourself if you think Lindsay Lohan is happy or healthy? My instincts say “Hell no!!” This girl has been to rehab so many times she probably has stock in The Betty Ford Clinic. And let’s not even count how many times she’s been pulled, half-cocked out of a club she was too young to be in anyway.
“Herbie: Fully Loaded” should’ve been called “Lindsay: Fully Loaded” with her little problem. But, back to my original point, fat or skinny, white or black, gay or straight we all have to learn to love ourselves or go crazy. Either learn to love yourself or keep going down the “Celebrities are better than me” road like so many people (like me, in the past) go down daily and end up miserable and depressed because they can never emulate what they see.
I’m so glad I finally got to do something like this, because it has totally cured my writers’ block and I hope that I’ve shed some sanity on a very personal issue to people, and although I didn’t like what you wrote about big people being lazy, because my hubby is anything but lazy. I’ve seen just as many thin people be lazy as fat people. (In fact, for every lazy fat person I’ve met, I’ve also met a lazy skinny one.) This being said, other than the jibes about food and laziness, this was a very good article

I always find comments like that very revealing and phony especially coming from those who pretend to promote “size acceptance” : “and find people
who will appreciate you for who you are, not what you look like”.
So this does mean that fat is unattractive because people will sort of “overlook” your fatness and appreaciate your personality ?! So your “fat” women are ugly but get appreciated for what they “really are” ??!!
And in how far do statements like that make women feel attractive and beautiful if they are actually getting treated as if people like them would get appreciated despite their looks and as if they were not good looking ???#
You know : life and people are much more complex than that.
There are a lot of guys who like chubby women for quite the wrong reasons : because they think they would be less conceited, because they think they would be more harmless, they think they wouldnt leave them so easily because they think most guys wouldnt like them anyway and because they need the feeling that they would be different from others.
And exactly those guys will use a bbw party as an opportunity to fish for insecure chubby women who think guys dont like their looks anyway and who will fall for a demon who tells them “hey most guys dont like you but I truly appreciate you”
A lot of guys need “fat” women for their narcissism.
And actually liking a chubby woman for her looks only is just as superficial as liking a thin woman for her looks only.
But liking a chubby woman because you actually think all chubby women had the same personalities and wouldnt be as self confident and prissy as thin women is much much worse than that.
You know : the worst statements I heard about the chubby topic actually came from people who think they would be bbw lovers.
You are liars and you are hypocrites.
