7. Fatosphere

   This blog is about fat and whatever else I feel like. I am a happy, healthy fat person with a little chip on my shoulder about our society’s attitude towards fat. I also happen to be a liberal, and I am irritated by liberals who have an irrational hatred of fat people. Being fat does NOT make you a spokesmodel for the megaconsumerist bigger-is-better mentality that liberals love to hate. Surprise—you can live an active, environmentally conscious life and leave a ‘small footprint’ even if you have a ‘big ass’!

8. The-F-Word Blog

   The-F-word is an eating disorders awareness and body acceptance site that promotes healthy relationships with food, weight and body image. Feminist issues, weight-based discrimination, the socio-cultural history of food and food-related disorders, race and class issues and politics as they relate to the site’s goals are also discussed. The site is neither pro-fat nor pro-thin, but rather pro-healthy — it is the position of the blog author that a healthy diet and relationship with food and self-esteem will allow most people to settle into a healthy weight range for them, which may or may not be thin. The blog author is unapologetically and staunchly anti-dieting, and promotes the holistic wellness-based approach known as Health at Every Size (HAES).
