So, I was going to try and blog everyday(except the weekends....unless something exciting happens, of course) but time gets away, of course that is just an excuse....I am actually lazy.   I get home from work....and I'm done! Stick a fork in!   So had a great time at the lake with the family.  Got into an interesting discussion with my sis in-law about the new diet she is on....btw...she is gorgeous and looks amazing, but whatever she needs to do.... anyway...she is on this new hcg diet.  She has lost 22 pounds in 4 weeks!  She takes hcg drops and only eats 500 calories a day!!!!  Wow.....what discipline...there is no way I could do that. I love my food too much.  But, it did get me thinking.....I really should start eating healthy.  I pretty much eat what I want, just in smaller portions and am rarely a member of the clean plate club.  So good luck  to me since I love all that is sweet and salty and not necessarily together...

Really????

So this morning I am at Community Bakery-which is amazingly yummy and located in downtown Little Rock-go visit!- and am getting breakfast for me and the boyfriend(I have a great boyfriend btw...more about him later).  I ordered a chocolate filled croissant(heavenly!), a spinach and cheese croissant, a ham and cheese croissant, and some super yummy egg, sausage, cheese fritatta thing....as I am waiting to pay, a lady says to me, "honey, if you keep eating like that you aren't going to stay skinny for much longer"!!!!  Really????  The witchy part of me wanted to say, "If you wouldn't come in here so often, you would be skinny", but I refrained.  Instead I just smiled and said it's not just for me.  This whole scenario upset me.  I would NEVER comment to anyone like that.  Just because I am skinny, doesn't mean I need unsolicited
advice about my diet.  Would you have a conversation like that with an overweight person?  Probably not.....
On another note, I was telling a friend about my blog and my boyfriend's oldest son says, "what's so bad about being skinny?  I love it, we have no problems at all"......and I agree with him.  I do love being skinny, but please, keep your dietary comments to yourself.

Why I started this....

So, yes, I am a skinny girl.  Don't hate me and I am definitely not sorry.  I started this blog to give a voice to us skinny people.  No, the world is not perfect because I am skinny.  We have gripes all on our own to deal with.  My top 5:

1.  Don't ask me how much I weigh.....Just because I am skinny doesn't mean it's appropriate.

2.  Yes, I do eat.  How do you think I survive?????

3.  Can I eat what ever I want?  No....are you stupid?  If I ate 20 twinkies in one sitting, I probably wouldn't be a skinny girl!!!  Not that am admitting that I have ever done that....;)

4.  No, I am not anorexic or bullemic........and if I was, is it your business anyway?

5.  Yes, I do still fit in to some of my clothes from high school....does it matter????

Ahhhhh....I am feeling better already.
