So, I decided I would be a bit more truthful on my POF profile. I changed my profile picture to one with shorter hair(my weave is gone) and I also changed my body type. The options were "a few extra pounds" or BBW(which screams morbidly obese to me). I chose "a few extra pounds". Guess how many messages were in my inbox? Two paltry messages. I usually average about 10-15 a day.WTF. I knew fatty-disclosure would lead to less messages. Shallow bastards. Who am I kidding? I am a fatty but I don't date fatties. I like thin men. I like them to look a little hungry...perhaps even emaciated. I have fantasies of force feeding them(like they do to ducks to make foie gras). I know I am sick.
UPDATE!UPDATE!UPDATE!UPDATE!UPDATE!UPDATE!UPDATE!UPDATE!
As I was writing this post, I checked my pof and I had a few messages. Two of those message were from cute guys. One ebony, one ivory. Hopefully they don't say anything stupid and we can get this show on the road!
I am 30! I realise that procrastination, sloth, gluttony, cynicism, flatulence, and sheepishness are traits that are not desirable in a woman of a certain age. This is about my journey to become a lady of discernible character. I have compiled a list of 30 things that I need to complete before that dark day comes and my youth vanishes before my eyes.

Fatty disclosure
I had been messaging back and forth with a dude on POF. He seemed sane, moderately attractive and intelligent. I ended communication with him because he asked if I had a full-body shot(which means he suspects I am a fatty). I didn't reply to any of his messages after that. Perhaps I fear that he may find my Rubenesque figure unappealing and I would be irrevocably scarred by his cruel rejection. I'm not that sensitive, but it just turned me off. I keep thinking about changing my body type description on the site but I feel like I won't get as many messages. I want my demure and virginal beauty to win them over before they fall in love with my jiggly bits. Anywhoo, it won't be too long-I have a date on Thursday.

FATTYDOM
In varying degrees, I have been slightly(or grossly) pudgy, overweight, Rubenesque throughout my life. The more I advance in years, the more arduous the task of losing that weight becomes. I have never felt the pressure to fit into a certain beauty ideal. People often tell me I have a pretty face when I want them to say " you look hungry" or " maybe you should eat a sandwich". I KID! I want to lose weight because I want to be healthy (as cliche as that sounds).
As a child my brother was a picky eater, while I ate everything put in front of me. I may not have enjoyed it all, but I was an obedient and docile child. If you offered me chocolate covered snails I probably would have eaten it. In adulthood, I try anything once(food wise)- I think that is the one area of my life where fear isn't at the forefront.
A few years ago, I went to visit my friend "Sabine" in Greece for the first time. The heat was relentless, it seemed like everything was uphill and like there were a million and one stairs to climb. Once in a while she would catch me taking a break and I would say"Oh, I am just taking a picture"or "just taking in the sunset" when I was gasping for some fucking air! She knew what was up and called me on it. I won't make excuses or try to rationalize why I am overweight when I ate a bag of Cadbury mini-eggs last night. I'm just going to try my best. I don't want to be a fatty no more!

Full disclosure
Should I disclose that I'm a fatty on a dating website? Under body type I selected "prefer not to say". My profile picture is only of my face and I think many of these fools get stunned by it's inherent beauty ( I KID) and envision someone more svelte. I am by no means being self-deprecating, just realistic; I am actually quite vain but I feel like I am not projecting the truth.
I checked out the profile of guy who messaged me and under drug use he put "socially" . Does that mean that you do an 8 ball of coke with your douchey friends every weekend? Or you smoke weed everyday? Either way, he wasn't good looking enough for me to care... But if he was honest enough to disclose that he does drugs, shouldn't I be brave enough to admit my rotundness? The problem is there isn't a description that I find fitting. I want something like this " Rubenesque mahogany hued Nubian goddess". What do you think? Should I disclose?
