It's not ok to be FAT

This is my blog on my quest to get healthy. I am 51kg at the moment I am just trying to build my muscles now I am 165 cm. I also like to include my measurements helps me keep on track. Some people seems to think that this is a blog that is against healthy curvy woman NO, I don't like how society is so much fatter and unhealther then we have ever been. We are accepting the unhealthy levels of fat, it becoming the norm. Its all about health. ..And I am the second author for this blog from now on, proudly :) Because I know how it is important for you to stay in shaped, get toned, build some muscles, feel alright and feel sexy esp these days when summer 2011 is coming! I am 177 cm and 50 kg now more like a model type but still eating healthy and at least trying to do, do workout twice a week.. This blog was a great inspiration for me I am so glad that I'v found this and now I am here to share more of what I find to help you and myself.. When I tell I take care of my body don't look at me like I am mad, it shouldn't be only about loosing weight first you need to eat healthy meals, don't forget do a king breakfast, eat whatever you like at lunch with keeping the plates small and at nights stay away from carbs and try to eat before 7 pm, eat fruits and green vegs with the main meals.. no white rice or any white bread just fibred and whole-grain ones.. and do exercising for your own health first then for the others' eye taste so here we are both to give you the courage and if they can do it, we can do it as well:) be the one who is looked after not the one who is staring at other's beauties!
austinkleon: Andrew Potter, The Authenticity Hoax: Why the “Real” Things We Seek Don’t Make Us Happy Okay, how many books can one read about authenticity in one year? Turns out…several! Read this on Mark Larson’s recommendation. I liked it — especially the “Creative Self” and “Perils of Transparency” chapters. To get an idea if you’d like it Potter has a blog around the book. Here’s a (modified?) version of one of my favorite passages: We should start by reminding ourselves that plagiarism is foremost a moral question. Sometimes it is illegal (such as when someone makes use of copyrighted material), but the essence of plagiarism is that it is one of a clutch of ethical offences that include fabricating memoirs or news reports, fraud, lying, hypocrisy, and forgery. What unites these is that they all involve some form of misrepresentation. In many ways, plagiarism is just the flip side of forgery: The forger passes off his own work as that of someone else, while plagiarists pass off the work of others as their own. Plagiarism is an offence that involves the misrepresentation of the self. The reason why we get hung up about these things is because we hold fast to a number of moral ideals about the self. We give these ideals names like uniqueness, integrity and originality, but the motivating principle is what we can call the ethic of authenticity. As an ethic, it is an injunction to be true to oneself, to place the cultivation of your real self at the forefront of your concern. Our culture remains strongly committed to the ethic of authenticity. Indeed, the reason plagiarism is on the rise is not because we care less about the morality of misrepresentation but — paradoxically — because we care about it too deeply.
