    I thought I'd celebrate today's date (11/11/11) by sharing 11 links. Some made me think, some helped me to learn something new, and some just plain made me happy (see ##1)1. "Terracotta Lego Army" by The Flickr Blog. Amazing. If you only pick one link to click in this post, click this one.  Read more >

    I thought I'd write today about some things said and done by well-meaning thin people that have triggered me lately. I know that most people mean well, and I am equally sure that I unintentionally hurt people way more often than I realize, so please understand that I am not blaming the people involved for the way I feel.  These are just things that I have noticed lately that make me realize that I need to either change the way I feel about myself, change my weight, or both.  Read more >

    It seems like every day we hear about a new dangerous product made in China. First it was pet food, then toys, and now baby bibs. It is ironic that Communist China has become such an example of the dangers of unchecked capitalism.  Read more >

About Me: 

I am a faculty member at a small college, married with no children.  I have been blogging since 2006. My blog, Perfect in Our Imperfections, was orignally called "Yet Another Weight Watchers Blog" and covered the usual recipes and scale and non-scale victories. Since then, I have expanded to talk about fitness, body image, the food culture, and the psychological side of weight loss and maintenance. I still haven't reached the perfect goal weight I imagined for myself when I started blogging, but I think I've found a little bit of balance and peace along the way.
