Fat and Happy

Fat and Happy? You must think I’m kidding. Who could be fat and happy? The two don’t go together. Let’s take a look.

Given everything that you’ve done so far to lose weight and everything you’re willing to do (or not willing to do) from now on, the truth may actually be that you are never going to get thin. If that’s the case, then wouldn’t the most practical thing be to accept yourself the way you are and get on with your life? If deep in your heart you know you really aren’t willing to do what’s necessary to be thin, then the most sensible, practical , and loving thing you can do for yourself is to accept yourself the way you are. Quit all this beating yourself up about your weight, and use that energy to start living the way you want to.

Think of all the things you could do if you just gave up and enjoyed being the way you are. You’d never again have to worry about dieting. You could buy clothes that were comfortable, rather than buying them one size too small to try to look smaller than you are. You could eat whatever you wanted and enjoy it. You could lean back and laugh when people bought diet books. You could stop putting your life on hold until after you were thin and start living it fully right now.

The very act of getting off your own back about losing weight will actually allow you to lose weight. When you accept yourself exactly the way you are, things will naturally start to turn around. Part of it is that if you start caring enough about yourself to get off your own back, you eliminate many of your reasons for overeating. Since there was no more battle on dieting, eating will become rather dull.

It will take a lot of courage in choosing to be fat and happy. It goes against everything written or spoken in our culture on the subject of weight. But you can end weight as a problem in your life forever in one instant by choosing to be fat and happy.
