What's up with the title?

The title is a direct, but not plagarized I hope, reference to Diets Don't Work, by Dr. Bob Schwartz (when I figure out how, I'll add the link), who offers various ideas about mindful eating and safe exercise and getting your emotions in check and who also offers options for your life including: choose to be fat and happy. Your other choices are fat and unhappy, thin and happy, and thin and unhappy. I've been dieting for most of the last 20 years (half my life) and I think I really want to stay at Fat And Happy now.

I started this blog because I want to talk about what this means to me, and how I got here (the short answer is www.kateharding.net via Bitch magazine via Facebook probably, but I've already come so far that I forget the original source), and other things about Fat Acceptance and Health At Every Size that occur to me. (And the use of commas, which I am conflicted about. English majors, please chime in).
