Moral Superiority -  This is an open letter/thinking out loud for those people on OH who think it is their place to question your motivation to have surgery: For the most part, I get a lot of encou...

My Favorite Things -  I'm sure I don't even know all of the things I'm missing out on, but here are some things I am looking forward to post-op 1.  Sitting in desks comfortably 2.  Never worrying a...

A Day in the Life of a Fat Person - Disclaimer:  I don't know if I do these things because I'm fat or just because I'm self-conscious.  However, I do think my self-consciousness is complicated by my weight. I don'...
