Fat Chicks Rule

I know people are exhausted with all these hurricanes, but please continue to give to the Red Cross or other Hurricane Charities.

There is also a need for plus size clothing (Expecially 3x and above).  Here is the link to NAAFA's website where you can send clothes.  You may also be able to send toiletries. 

Two things that I liked to comment on from my old blog.

1. People who have commented and need a response will get one eventually.  I've been busy and sick.  Yea!

2. Barnes and Noble won't carry the book in their stores.  If you must buy it from them, do it directly through the store and ask why they don't carry it.

Fat Actress

For my first post on my brand spanking new, paid for, blog, which I will update regularly if anyone cares to read it, is that I finally watched all 7 episodes of Fat Actress.

Overall, I found it to be very funny, with reservations.  It definitely made me laugh.

What I liked was the making fun of various crazy thing people will do to lose weight.    A bulimic friend (who is eating tissues for dinner) tells to Kirstie she try parasites and her brother suggest using crack. She tries a diet called Coy Effect where she will get smaller if she is surrounded by smaller things. In the first episode Kirstie mentions to her agent about  how fat actors still get roles but she can't.  So there is definitely mention of issues that face actresses in Hollywood.

What I didn't really like is Kirstie portrays herself as obsessed for food and being thin.  I was really hoping to see a comedic look on how a fat actress deals with Hollywood (which for the most part is done) but I thought her crazy overeating was a overdone.  For most of the show I wanted to strangle her and tell her to (a) accept herself because she has always been hot no matter what her size  and (b) swim in that beautiful pool!

Overall, I give it **1/2

Hello, is this thing on?
