Pocket of Bolts: I don't want to lose weight so I can impress people with my body. I want to lose weight so as to--
Zapaper: Remove a liability.
PoB: Yes, remove a liability.
ZP: I totally understand. No doubt if I were going to try to stay in China and make a real life for myself here I would become anorexic so as to 'remove a liability.'
PoB: I don't even think that would be enough.
ZP: You're right. I would have to get bone sections taken out of my shoulders or something.

Well, both anorexia and shoulder reduction surgery are quite beyond me. But still smarting over being blithely described as fat over the lunch table, I am posting my menu in the side-bar. Being aware of what you eat is the first step, blah blah. Actually, I have lost about 10 pounds since coming to China, but I'll tell you I've never felt more enormous!
When I went to go try to post that, newblogger made me update my template. In the midst of packing, I decided to switch to a less fussy template. Template-switching: moving the blog-roll over made me a little angry, but aside from that I admit that the new updating tool is pretty easy to use. It was so easy that I even added a "song stuck in my head" feed too. So you can all know way more about me than you probably want to.
Meanwhile, I am making it a goal to try to eat fewer frozen desserts and stuff.
