[Lady Freedom]

My doctor says he would like to be so healthy!:woohoo: Why on the heavy side? He can't figure out.

[cleofus1]

2. me too

ok...morbidly obese...but my wife is skinny and she's a liberal too!

[Aristus]

4. I'm heavier than I would like to be, but cutting out sugar

has really helped me lose weight. B-)

[ghostsofgiants]

5. Hey, what about us ridiculously scrawny liberals?

[Katha]

19. Seconded!

We skinny sticks count too! :D

[ghostsofgiants]

26. Fuckin' a!

And since you're fairly new here, I welcome you as part of the scrawny contingency here at DU!

[RevCheesehead]

6. Ahem - the word is "Reubenesque"

and here I am. :hi:

[Left Is Write]

11. It's Rubensesque.

After the painter, Peter Paul Rubens, and the voluptuous women he immortalized. :)

[Splatter Phoenix]

15. Oh.

I thought it was after Ruben, the American Idol finalist. ^_~

[RevCheesehead]

16. Nah, it's Reubens -

as in "I like Reubens too much." :9

[Left Is Write]

18. LOL!

Cute! :)

[GreenPartyVoter]

7. I am plumptious and have a website of books with voluptuous

heroines. (Note the site is screwed up these days, but still readable. I promise some day to fix it.)

Does it count if we're trying to lose weight?

[Lady Freedom]

9. yes!

[rppper]

10. "husky" DUer here......

big boned even......

it's fun to be 6-2 and around 250lbs, bald/shaven head, goatee and loaded with tattoos.....it tends to shut loud-mouths, bullies and bush worshipers down when they start getting rambunctuious.....priceless i tell you.

12. Liberally Fat Woman checking in.

:)

Don't shy away from the "F" Word.

Victor Buono put it best many years ago:

I'M FAT

I'm fat, I'm fat;
that's all there is to that.
You might think it etiquette
to say that I am heavy-set or just big boned;
You wanna bet? I'm fat, I'm fat, I'm fat.

Portly, chubby, plump and stout;
everyone's a diplomat.
Why not let it all hang out
and go ahead and call me fat?

So please, don't think you're being kind
by pretending to be blind.
Just take a look at my physique;
there's only one word: fat.

And I'm not really unhappy being fat.
There are times when it's inconvenient; Such as when I'm trying to ladle myself into a theater seat - or trying to get all of me through a turnstile at one pass - or calling the lobby to tell them that the bed has broken - again.

I'm fat.
It would be untruthful to deny it.
It would also be impossible,
because my failing is my flag!

Some men can sin and conceal it;
they're bandits but no one gets wise.
When I sin my seams will reveal it;
my crime is proclaimed by my size.

Some folks are awful and lawful;
they're loaded with loot but who'd know it?
I try to sneak in a waffle,
and five minutes later I show it.

The fella who sells marijuana
can walk down the street like a saint,
and his sister may seem a madonna
but the vice squad can prove that she ain't.

Since pounds are like crimes,
they can nail me on well over 300 counts
and try me for each pound and jail me.
I hope I'm not fined by the ounce.

I'm guilty of imperfect diet.
My weight shows I'm pizza pie-prone.
I know it's no good to deny it.
Now who wants to cast the first stone?

Or to be a bit more blunt:
Although my belt may not be svelte
I've never felt disgusted.
The kind of pot that I have got
will never get me busted.

13. Not overweight

but some definite curves since I had my daughter. I'm no longer a stick and I get compliments for it all the time. Top heavy, defined waist and some real hips (instead of the runners bottom I used to have).
Can I check in too?

[ContraBass Black]

14. I'm just here to express enthusiastic appreciation

of the OP and those checking in.

[RevCheesehead]

17. I've always heard there were men like you out there...

I just never met one before. :loveya::hug:

[ContraBass Black]

20. I just know what my eyes like to feel and my skin likes to touch.

Is that so unusual?

[RevCheesehead]

21. sadly, yes it is.

That's why you made my day today, with both of your posts. :)

[scarlet_owl]

22. Checking in!

[norml]

23. I'm 6'1" & 240 lbs.

And I would very much like to loose about 50lbs of that.

[FuzzyThinker]

24. all you chubby libs will die around 72 , while we skinnies will.....

die around 76 .... so stop enjoying yourselves !!!!!

[tarkus]

27. Four years is a pretty long time.

I probably wouldn't want to give that away.

I plan on living forever though.

[FuzzyThinker]

28. Well , one can dream futile dreams .

[u4ic]

25. Ms V (voluptuous) checking in!

:hi:

[njdemocrat106]

29. 5'10" and 231 lbs here...

I'm a Coke addict (as in Coca-Cola, not cocaine :) ). That's what probably does me in.

[Redstone]

30. Oh, for Christ's sake, haven't we had enough agony with

the weight issue here? Do we REALLY need to start it all over again?

Redstone

[Wapsie B]

31. Me too!

:woohoo:

There's just more to love. :)

Although I'm making progress being a smaller me.
