Do you want a gap between your thighs or cake?

"Do you want hipbones or pizza? A gap between your thighs or cake? Collarbones or sweets? A flat stomach or soda?" The top pictures show awesome bodies but then the bottom shows a silly person with soda, pizza, chips, and candy instead,  proving they would rather the food.  

Yeah, bring on the cake.

I know a lot of women are obsessed with wanting a flat stomach or are mortified that their thighs touch…

Actually, as a quick side note: I didn’t realize until two years ago that your thighs are apparently not supposed to touch. I thought that was only something that happened with anorexics, stick thin models, or Asians.

But no, apparently white chicks like myself are supposed to have a gap there, too. I have obviously been living under the guise of my Southern cooking roots. Who knew?

So anyway, yes, I understand why some people are so obsessed with being thinner or more toned or more perfectly shaped. I get it. Really, I do.

But if you show me a picture of a flat stomach and try to use that as some sort of thinspiration to motivate me to work out? It ain’t happening. I’m going to drool over the cake or cookie alternative and tell you that if you want to go sweat your butt off, go for it, but I’ll happily add another slice to mine for now. ;)

Sugar Rush – Are you a statistic?

This is definitely more on the PSA side of things instead of the quirky side, although I’ve gotta love the little cartoon pictures used to show just how much we’re overdoing it in the sugar department. I don’t personally consume nearly that much, but I’m betting some of you are pushing it, huh?
Enjoy the reality check:
