What is Living Chubby? Let me tell you!

Before you close the page because you are not wrapped in a huggable layer of bulk, you should know that chubby is not just a physical trait: it's a mindset. It's the mindset that says "Well, I SHOULDN'T buy that bag of Cheetos for my drive to my parents' house, but I'm going to anyway. Besides, I'm starting a diet tomorrow". Whether you're a size 16 or size 2, man or woman, we all have our fat moments. Some of us are just better at managing them (or have a kick-ass metabolism). 

To clarify, I am of the physically chubby persuasion.

If you still aren’t sure you this blog is “for you”, here’s a list of all the people that this blog is written for:

People who love food, but don’t like cooking.

People who are fat.

People who used to be fat.

People who will probably be fat in the future.

People who want to lose weight.

People who want to lose weight. . . right after that last tub of ice cream is gone.

People starting a diet today.

People starting a diet tomorrow.

People who went off their diet just for today.

People who would jog, but just can’t seem to fit it into their schedule.

People who can relate to the constant battle between loving food, and wanting to be healthy.

If you fall under any of those, come back next Tuesday!

This blog will basically be me starting a diet and exercise routine, falling off the wagon, and dragging my feet to getting back on. I will include recipes from time to time, and maybe a work out that I especially like. 

My goal is to post every Tuesday, hear from people who have similar struggles, and, in the end, to lose those pesky 20lbs that just won’t go away.

My goal is NOT to whine about by lumpy body, or big belly, because everyone knows that the whole point of those complaints is to hear the chorus of "You're not fat!" (Which, most of the time, you probably are. And that's OK). I don't need people to tell me how awesome/talented/drop dead gorgeous I am. I already know. If you want to tell me anyway, that’s cool too.
