SAY WHAAAA? Shut the front door. Good God Amighty! With Kevin out of town this week I’ve been playing in the kitchen a lot. I was looking through the fridge and found a myriad of leftovers and created this beauty: Y’all – it just wasn’t fair it was so good. Here’s the line up: Real … Continue reading
Can you believe it?! This marks my 100th post on SoMuchFattitude! Since Thanksgiving is the time to be thankful let me take a moment and acknowledge how grateful I am for each and every one of you that take the time to read and be a part of my journey, especially during this recent most … Continue reading
I had my post-operation visit last Thursday. The Pathology report came back to show that there were no genetic/parental issues and this was a true chromosomal fluke. We should be good to go in the future. Talk about a relief! The Doctor said to spend the next 6 or so weeks doing whatever makes me … Continue reading
RO commented in a baking post about how her “me time” typically involves baking. I realized how right she was and how cathartic baking is for me. My Sister In Law, Terri has been a total God send through this whole process. I know she loves Chocolate Chip Pumpkin Bread so I thought I’d make … Continue reading
I had a much needed weekend of soul soothing and what I’d like to think of recovery and the road to redemption. After gorging myself on Friday morning with a pint of Ben and Jerry’s Half Baked I realized I couldn’t continue down that dangerous road. I made a promise to myself as I licked … Continue reading
My college degree is in Psychology (why? I don’t know.) and I’m doing my best to process this past week. I get it – I know the 5 stages of grief: Desolation and isolation – This was at the Doctor’s on Oct 22nd. Anger – This is the strangest one to me because it happened … Continue reading
I am not exactly sure where to start, or what to say. What I do know is that when I started SoMuchFattitude I said I would always be real and honest, no matter what. This will undoubtedly be the hardest thing I ever write, as this has been the hardest week of my life. They … Continue reading
“If I can do it, you can do it, too!” I read this article a while ago and it got brought up again and I’ve just been stewing…. It’s just bullshit. I’m sorry. Not the woman, not her mission, not her intention. Just this phrase infuriates me. I hate, with every ounce of my being, when people say … Continue reading
Yeah buddy. It’s fall. And you know what I love in Fall? Pumpkin…pistachios…and anything “spiced.” So, I figured I’d put them all together and go with it. While I try to eat whole foods and nothing processed, I can’t be perfect. I was feeling particularly lazy and found this Betty Crocker Super Moist Carrot Cake … Continue reading
Every once in a while I will sit down in front of the TV and gorge myself on documentaries. The other day I watched My 600lb Life on TLC. I watched the end of Donald’s story, Ashley’s story and Melissa’s story. Melissa’s story really touched something in me: a young married woman wanting children and a new … Continue reading
Damn girl, that's a lot of fattitude
