Synopsis: How to Get Fat
It’s a rule in a woman’s life that any food that makes her feel good on the inside will make her a cow on the outside. These foods can be soft, crisp, hot, cold, warm, or all of the above. They must have plenty of calories in order to make your body feel loved, feel full, feel nourished. After all, they’re to provide comfort and we normally need comfort because we feel empty and alone.
Food doesn’t judge, it doesn’t come with a size tag or a mother in law. Food is not partial, it just gives.
This is how to get fat, in case you ever need instruction.
Excerpt: How to Get Fat
It was done. I hung up the phone, dropped my bags on the floor and just stood there breathing. Breathing, like eating, is very important after a break up. Lately I found myself taking quite a few moments to just sit, or stand and breathe slowly in and out. In and out.
This time while breathing I imagined Jeremy. I imagined his tall slim frame walking through the park beside a woman. I imagined him looking down at her and smiling, the sun shinning through his dirty blond hair and that one dimple on his left cheek displayed charmingly to the slim young woman walking beside him. And then I imagined a cement truck crashing through the park and running both Jeremy and the slim young lady over. Twice. Then dumping the cement on them.
Breathe in and out. In. And out.
