I love this entry – much of it resonates with me. I’ve always been a big girl, and always slightly apologetic (and insecure) about it. I’m now 34 and beginning to explore new facets of my sexuality, and at once it’s nervous-making (new people seeing me naked after years of relative security about myself and my body!!!) and liberating, because dammit, I’m just tired of apologizing for what and how I am. I think I’m nifty, no matter my size. And fuck anybody else who doesn’t. : )

Lovelovelove your blog, which I only recently discovered. Off to read more…

Thanks. :) I’ve lost a fair bit of weight and am now back to exercising — a mix of cycling, free weights, circuit weights, walking, and ab work. It’s only been a week or so back into the program (much of the last four months have been spent sick, exercising a bit and loving it, then getting quite sick again.

The guy I’m with is also working on improving his body and has had ridiculous success, so we’re both on the same page, but he’s broken his leg and will be needing to rehab, which means I’ll be doing things with him as well. Not so bad a thing, tho. :)

But yeah, with a history of cancer and heart disease and diabetes in my family, I’m not planning to be a statistic, either. The trick is, I love food, so I’m a real gourmand, so I need to balance with activity and also learning great ways of kicking things up in a healthy but tasty manner. It’s workin’, tho!

I’ve been reading your blog for the last few days and it’s like I’m “looking into a mirror” – your attitude is awesome and quite like mine. Like you though I used to be heavier and less confident and let that hold my true self back. But I’ve worked really hard exercising and eating well, except for me it’s a health kick – I don’t want to be another heart attack/cancer/stroke/etc statistic (I’m in my early 40s now). My boyfriend loves me for the way I am but he benefits from my continued weight loss and increased stamina ;) Health first and the rest is a bonus!

Just browsing some of you posts (me being a new visitor today) and liked your discussion of sex getting better with age. Certainly true in my case, but unfortunately it took losing my marriage to learn that truth. Now I search for partners to enjoy my newly found sexual awareness with. Glad to have found your site and its wisdom and fun attitude.

Wow, profound. I myself am a pretty big chick, probably somewhere in between where you describe yourself and the woman in the picture. I am a little curious as to why you felt you had to so quickly let us know that you weren’t as big as her? Would that be bad? I mean, i find her hot as hell, myself. As a bi woman, i rarely am attracted to very thin women. In fact almost never. Mostly women on the spectrum of chubby to sometimes ‘fat’ (hate that word, but there it is). I agree – i cannot imagine being in bed with a stick. Plus, fat feels good in the dark (-;. I’ve never let being a size 16 stop me from enjoying the hell out of my partner, or worried about what my body looks like when i’m doing it.

I’m 36 too and it’s still climbing. The more my sex drive rises, the better I feel about my not-nearly-perfect body.

Thanks!

Tee hee! SMOOCHES.

Yeah, I hope I got some years left with this peak thing. I could use a little primo action for a spell. Whee!

Nice photo!

I just think you are so great. I’m 36 and the whole sexual peak thing. It rocks.

Luci -- There ya go.

Anon -- Snicker.

"MIss Bobbi" -- I have a hard time believing you're not some spam-inducing robot, but if you're some real chick and this is what you dig, then you know what? Whatever gets you off, hon. Personally, the whole schooled-my-chubby-slut-daughter thing gives me visions of white-trash porn-hell, but y'know, it's a big world. Happy cumshots to you. I hope your email fills with unspeakable acts that give you dirty-girl shivers, then.

Regular -- Yeah, the more you judge yourself, the more others pick up on it, and that's the problem. Dealing with that shit internally in positive ways takes you to new places, simply said.

Rachel -- I ain't descending anytime soon. Come too far to let it go down now. :)

Coed -- Send him my way. I like men with a little lovehandle thign goin' on.

Knatty -- I can't afford therapy, so this writing thing fills the void. ;)

Virgin -- Yeah, well, the time is night for you, I'm sure. :)

Jazzy -- Happy? In a word? Not really. Getting content, and content is good. You're YOUNG. You'll get there. You have seven years to practice and ditch hangups before your sexual peak. How fun. Years of practice!

(My word verification is "atbum". Hmm.)
