FAT! LOVE the FAT!

Ok, so this is a new soap box for me, but I hope you like it.....




BOOBS! TaTa's! BREASTS! Tities! KNOCKERS! BoooBooo's! JUGS! Melons! ITYBITYTITIES!


Its funny, people have a million names for them! The one that makes me laugh is this new I gave them, FAT!


Really, they are fat! Some milk ducts, but mostly just fat! I mean, FAT! You know, the stuff you trim off your steak, or season your food with?! You know, the stuff everyone wants to lose and heads to the gym to 'shred'! I have a cousin, perfect hourglass shape! She has a nice rack, as most call it! Except, she lost it, ALL OF IT! Her body fat got so low, just from workouts and diet changes, that she lost ALL of her boobs! I mean ALL of them! She was a nice full D cup, now she barely needs an A. She was wearing a size 4 very nicely, but she is now a size 0. She is not much over 5'2" either, so she does not look emaciated, she just has muscle where there once was fat. But that also means she has lost her 'womanly' fat too! She told me, who knew changing my diet would make me lose the one area of fat I wanted to keep?! I told her its all overrated. She laughed and said, sure it is, you have enough for 10 women! True, but its still fat!


I do happen to have a lot of fat, in several places! I know women that have told me, man! I just want your boobs for a few months! Then I can wear what I want, I can make my husband happy, I can feel sexy, pretty and BLAH, BLAH, BLAH!  STOP IT! I just want to scream at them! GAIN SOME WEIGHT! AND, rejoice over these facts: YOU CAN WEAR ANY BRA, MADE BY ANYONE, FROM ANY STORE IN ANY COLOR, DESIGN AND FABRIC YOU WANT! YOU CAN BY YOUR DRESS SIZE AND NOT WORRY ABOUT THE TOP NOT FITTING! YOU DON'T HAVE TO WEAR 3 SIZES BIGGER ON TOP THAN YOU ARE ON BOTTOM, CAUSE NO ONE MAKES CLOTHES FOR FAT!


I know I am yelling, but really, come on! Its JUST fat! If I could lose it I would. Some would gain it there if they could, some do, surgically! Men are obsessed with it! Its insane! The reason we have those things, in all manner of shapes and sizes it to FEED CHILDREN! The whole point is to make sure our children get the nourishment they need! I understand a side benefit is our husbands, uh, hem, enjoyment and to make our clothes lay nicely too! BUT, their main purpose is to feed our children.


Why is it that sexy is related to our boob fat? Why isn't sexy related to our hearts and our capacity to love, to be generous, to give of ourselves to those that need us and love us? Why is our sexy not related to our love for Christ and his lost children?! Why is our sexy not related to our intellect? In our humble hearts that seek to honor and obey and love our husbands? In our passion for serving those around us? I say we should redefine sexy. It should have NOTHING whatsoever to do with our physical physique and everything to do with our hearts, our minds and our spirits! I mean, if you were to lose your 'sexy fat' ie boobs, would you then cease to 'be sexy'?! NO! Sexy is in your heart, your mind, your spirit, the one God gave you and blessed you with! The one that all true God fearing men love, and find irresistible!


Lets see fat for what it is, insulation, heavy and irritating, hard to manage, and something to be lost and managed, some thing that makes for good baby food, good resting spots for sleeping babies and toddlers, sick children and a nice snuggle for spouses! Nothing sexy about that! Just practical and soft! LOL! We need to find our purpose in the design for Gods creation and celebrate it for the reason God gave it to us. If your breasts have never fed a child, that does not remove their purpose. If you have never born a child, their purpose is still intended, just not fully realized. If your breasts have never been a zone of comfort for a sick toddler, they still have a purpose! Mostly, a snuggle for your spouse, yes, that is one of their purposes. The life expectancy of that job, is about 50 years give or take.....


I just can't help but laugh sometimes at how much importance we put on silly stuff! Like fat! I mean, really! Its just fat! You know, like the stuff we trim from our steaks, pay more for fatless chicken, drain off our ground beef, put in our green beans (bacon grease), put in our turkey's to make them not dry, avoid in our salad dressings, have taken out of our milk, our cheese, our yogurt, our bacon, steak, orange juice (its not in there), make sure we go to the gym to burn it off. BUT, we head to the surgeon to have him make it look like we have it! I mean, women pay BIG BUCKS to have fat in their chests! They call it silicone, or saline implants, but what they are really attempting to do is look FAT! LOL!




So, I say, depending on how much God has given you, or you have cultivated by lifestyle, take a moment to thank God for that fat! Regardless of how much you have or don't have, its just fat! Lets start a LOVE THE FAT revolution!


If we see ourselves and each other as God sees us, His children, then we will not be hung up on FAT! Whether we have it in our boobs, our butts, our legs, our bellies, our foreheads, our noses, our eyeballs or our big toes, we will see the person inside that God rejoices over with singing!


Take a moment and enjoy the view, take in Gods beautiful scenery, with new eyes today. See those sexy ladies, carrying all that fat and remind them, they are some gorgeous red poppies, meant to be adored! FAT AND ALL! XOXO!

  2. One correction: Those of us on the opposite end of the spectrum-you know-the ones with fat on the BOTTOM and NONE at the top(Don't get me wrong, I own my ghetto booty-I kinda like it) we have the same issue with tops/dresses-Women's size shirts(and by womens I mean NOT Juniors sizes) are made for a woman with a developed "ideal" chest size, I have none-so the shirts tend to just hang on me like a skeleton at the top! I am one of those who wishes I had some FAT up there, just so it would be easier to shop for shirts and swimsuits!! It is sickening how much "Sexy" is defined by big boobs! It's a hard thing to get out of your head though! One of my best friends is very chesty and she always says-"If you don't have them you want them-and those of us who have them wish we could give ours to you so you'd shut up and learn that they really suck-they make your back hurt, if you wear the wrong bra it cuts into your shoulder, and if you want to get in shape and exercise-they smack you in the face even if you're wearing 3 sports bras(which-wearing the 3 sports bras cuts off your diaphragm and makes you nearly pass out because you can't breathe)" LOL! I quit complaining after that!!!! ;)

  3. Yes, it is very true!Our fat tends to accumulate in strange places and someone somewhere decided only the fat in our chests was sexy! GOOD GRIEF! It is still FAT! LOL! Yes, wearing 3 sports bras is NO FUN! And aside from the asthma, they do cut off your diaphragm! LOL! I can tell you, It is less expensive to have your shirts tailored down and removed fabric then trying to add fabric, which does NOT work! I was thinking just the other day, if we gained our fat on our upper lip, most of us would be SKINNY! Like REALLY SKINNY! Or how about on our eyelids?!
    I say, embrace your fat, regardless of where God stores it on you! If its a nice booty, then hunny, love that thang! If its a big chest that causes your bra to dig into EVERYTHING, love it! If its a belly left over from bearing children, LOVE IT! If its a belly from NOT bearing children, LOVE IT MORE!
    God gave it to you, the way He did, to show you what He loves! EVERY shape imaginable! LOVE THE FAT! ALL OF IT! Even the fat in your eartips!

    Love you lady, I know the struggle, it is not flattering when your clothes hang on you, whether from too much or not quite what you want, but love you anyway! You are Gods creation and He likes you just the way you are!

  4. :) Love you too, sweet Mama! I agree 100% we all have our moments-but all in all-I'm happy to be HAPPY with my body and all it's stupid fat! lol!
    Your Font also didn't turn yellow like you had said-only your Dates/links changed to a lighter color, but that yellow/cream-ish color is much easier to see on top of the red, for sure!
