I've retired the mom blog (mom's historic warm, fuzzy affirmations are still available in the archives (posts labeled 'mom blog' and, for the best of those, 'classic')). I enjoyed the years of fat talk and running commentary on my hair and personality as much as you did, but mom moved on and so must the blog.

Yoga in the park
Some of you have suggested that I post pictures of myself on this blog in order to provide a frame of reference for mom's nagging me about my weight. I've long resisted these suggestions out of the belief that my weight wasn't the point; mom's commentary was the point, regardless of my actual shape. However, as I've come to believe that mom's commentary is more amusing in light of my actual shape, I am posting some pictures that P. kindly took. You can see for yourself the gut so enormous that stops all conversation, and the butt so massive it's a wonder it fits through doorways. 

You're so pretty! I like the last one the best and the fact that you're doing yoga in sensible pumps.
ReplyDeletehas your mom seen you balance like you are in the 3rd pose? don't think you can do that unless you're really fit!
