"plus-size living"

ok, as a larger than normal person, i know what it's like to not want to sit in a chair because i'm not sure it will hold me weight or because i know i won't fit comfortably. i LOVE XL towels, because i'm not a fan of getting dressed while still wet OR walking around the locker room over-exposed. i realize that there are a lot of things that are made for "normal" size people that don't work quite right for someone larger. but i got a link to this website in my e-mail today, and i'm slightly disgusted.....

Plus+Size Living

i'm not really sure how to put this into words....other than to say that someone who needs a Big John Toilet Seat should probably spend that $125 on some really good walking shoes and a couple Richard Simons DVD's instead....

i'm all for body acceptance....but i'm not for creating your own little corner of the world that conforms to you just so you can pretend that being severely overweight ISN'T a problem. there's a difference between loving and respecting yourself and being in denial, mmmkay??

peace/love/respect
