So I'm short, fat, & bipolar. I love to run, & am learning to love myself & be a healthier person mentally & physically. I practice Health At Every Size, so no diet/weight loss talk.I have a blog, My Year to Thrive, where I talk about all that stuff. This is an extension of that blog, plus things I like from around the tumblr-sphere.
