In this blog I hope to track my adventures in fitness, food justice, gardening and body acceptance. I will do so with a critical eye--examining how anti-fat bias, economics, class, sexism, urban (suburban and rural) development deprives us of satisfying movement, and how health is collective and personal.

Half of Me Addict
Okay, seriously, I need to stop linking to Jennette at Half of Me or you'll just think that this is a blog devoted to her blog, but seriously, here's a really good post about how obesity is framed as a moral failing rather than a disease (like how lepers were once shunned because it was an indicator or their inherent evilness or AIDS was "punishment" for being gay, not understood as an infection of HIV). Seriously, check it out (and I promise to stop linking to her for at least a week).
