Fat Is The New Thin

Well, not really, but it's not the as looked down on as it used to be, either:

A survey finds America's attitudes toward overweight people are shifting from rejection toward acceptance. Over a 20-year period, the percentage of Americans who said they find overweight people less attractive steadily dropped from 55 percent to 24 percent, the market research firm NPD Group found.

That said, if you find that you can only leave your apartment via a crane and a hole cut through the wall with an plasma cutter, you should probably consider doing some vigorous calisthenics. Jumping jacks, maybe, or doing whatever the hell you're supposed to do with that big "medicine ball." Far as I can tell people just flop down on it and roll around a little, which doesn't seem like something that would really work that cardio system.

Reminder: This may be a survey, but they sure the hell didn't survey Chris Klein. So, you can feel a little freer to put on some "comfort pounds," but if you're dating Chris Klein, and you have your period and you're retaining weight, don't expect him to placate.

You're only asking for heartbreak.

Thanks to BrewFan of reminding me of that. Chris Klein has thing thing going that's working for him, but he has to be firm.
