The "Fuck It" Diet


I wish I could remember who, in my Yahoo Group, shared this link, but I can't. So, if you're reading my blog, I apologize for stealing your awesome idea, but thank you, eternally, for sharing it.

The name of this post, borrowed from this post from Margaret Cho's blog, pretty much says it all. If you've ever seen any of Margaret's comedy specials on cable, you have a pretty good idea what to expect. If you don't, just be prepared for lots of, shall we say, colorful expression. But if you can get past the expletives (I can. Personally, I love a good expletive; it's cathartic!), you'll see that what she's really talking about is intuitive eating in her own hysterical way. I haven't read a lot of her blog, but from the few posts I've scanned and the comedy specials I've seen, it's clear that she's no stranger to food and body issues. So she knows where of she speaks. And I respect that. And I respect that she's voiced, far better than I ever could, the insanity that is dieting and the joy that comes from just saying "fuck it!" and getting on with your life.

I'm not quite as evolved as she is on the subject, but I sure hope to get there soon. You go girl!
