How’s THIS for an alternative perspective on eating healthy? (Via YBSPI.)

Hey Duluth! UMD Health Services is hosting a Q&A with “America the Beautiful” director, Darryl Roberts. Anyone else see this film? Opinions?
Anyone else a little bored with the Fashion Week frenzy?
I can lift quite a bit of weight and there’s loads of muscle in there, but my arms are just plain big instead of “sculpted.” I’ve been lamenting this lately, for whatever reason, so this post on the dangers of body comparison – using Jen Aniston’s arms as an example – really hit home.
Probably gonna have to wrap a scarf around my boot before winter ends. Simple, chic, brilliant.
Brain food to keep those synapses healthy for LIFE.
Marianna lists her current favorite plus-sized blogs. What are yours?
You guys know I don’t generally lose it over designer stuff, but holy guacamole, I’d sell my liver for ANY of these Proenza Schouler AW10 shoes. Any. No lie.

And, from the Department of Random, what does your website sound like? Put a URL into Code Organ and it will instantly compose midi music based on its content. The Already Pretty Theme song definitely has some Eastern overtones … not sure why.
Sal it would seem, you and I who are feeling the love for those Schouler stitts!!!
Sally, you have the BEST links ever. I get someone new every time. I mean, who doesn't love a blog called The Fat Nutritionist!!
Sally, thank you SO much for the mention again! You rock! π Greatly appreciated!
A moccasin ban? That's unnecessary! π
I just bought moccasins a while. Turns out they're too stumpy looking to work with my skinny jeans like I'd hoped, but I still wear them while I putter around the house!
Thanks for posting the link with the curvy girl fashion blog links. Loved them!
Barbara
another awesome set of links!
i confess i too am a liiiittle bit tired of fashion week stuff.
I love your lovely links! Interesting, too, the post on Fashion Week burnout, v. refreshing.
Thanks for the mention, pretty lady, and love this list of great links!
I really look forward to your link list every week.
Love the moccasins you posted — and just curious, what prompted your moccasin ban?

Thanks Sal, for linking me again! Not feeling the fashion weeks here either, but I will fight you for those Proenza shoes… π
Great links as always and thanks for the shout-out! I really enjoyed reading the post on editors vs fashion bloggers and the Coco Rocha story. I actually really liked Coco Rocha's own more in-depth post on the issue on her blog over the shorter version written about her in the NYT.

Kelly and Sidewalk Chalk: OK, so there wasn't an actual BAN … I just don't generally like moccasins. Not on myself, anyway! π
Hey Sally… I have to thank you (and thank you again) for the mention. Two readers said they found my blog because of you! The power of the internet will never cease to amaze me!

I came across it a while back when I was bored of my old non-sculpting routine. They're odd but they worked for me. The title does rather fit in with what you were saying, but at least it's a little less specific π
