I am literally terrified of that FlyLady thing. Like, two minutes on the site and I started hyperventilating. Yet so many people I know have found it useful. It's so ... PURPLE. And relentless.

I also want to point out that a size 12 on a 5' tall person is much different than a 5'8" size 12. Size 12 can most definitely be considered fat, if, for example, you are 3 feet tall.
I'd say "can be" rather than "is."
At 5'3 (almost), a 12 on me (I MISS YOU, SIZE 12!) is rounding down into the slim range for my build. An 8-10 is slender. I'm a 34F/G, so I can't really get any smaller than than a 10/12 for dresses, and even when I was unhealthily slim, my hips were 38" around.

Has anyone here every used FLYlady? (http://www.flylady.net/) I have been and it has been working, but I was wondering if anyone knew of a similar (free) place that was maybe a little less focused on moms and really heteronormative stuff.
I like the Flylady concept, but I can't bear the e-mails; the assumption that you're a mom with a husband; the constant lols; the amount of God; or the general cheeriness. I haven't found anything equivalent for grumpy agnostic single people.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
Plei is me in those sizes. At one time I was down to a 5-6 and looked seriously unwell.
That cherpumple has been posted before, I think. I remember stealing it and reposting.
My husband played an original song last night IN PUBLIC! I am terribly proud of him and so glad that so many of our friends came out in support. One dude we've only known a couple of months who happens to live across the street from the bar at the end of ours.

I've done that! Both parts.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
OMG I want to stab my boss.

I think bosses frown on being stabbed.
Oh, also, re: drinking at work. We actually had a wine cellar/room at my last agency also a salsa/margarita party, also also, bloody mary/mimosa mornings.
Why yes, I was in advertising, why do you ask?

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
That cherpumple thing is waaay too much sugar for my taste, and I have a major sweet tooth.
