Send us your own notice!
Please remember that anyone can post a notice, so be cautious about revealing
your own personal information before you know whether the person is trustworthy!
Also, we encourage people to take a weight neutral
approach, and we do not post ads solely seeking support for weight loss.
This is the place to try something different. However, we understand that
people are at various points in the size acceptance process, and so when people
have a mixed agenda (for example, wanting to focus on getting more active and
losing weight), we have not edited their ads, so that when someone has a partial
focus on weight loss, it will be clear to others in case that focus is something
you are trying to avoid.

goal: Fun Physical Activity for
a Healthy Life Style -
I live in Fresno California and am looking for
people in my area who would like to exercise
not to lose weight per se
but to get healthy. I enjoy the company of men and
women and age doesn't matter one iota. Walking,
Bike riding, mat exercises whatever
- I'm ready to try some new things and start to feel as good on the
outside as I do on the inside. My one thing that I
can not stand is people who always talk about how
much they do not like their body. So if
that's you what are you doing here?? I can't wait
to meet you and make some new friends!! |

I am a 22 year old woman who would like to find other large women of all ages in the area.

I usually work until 9pm, and would really love to find people to walk or even bike ride with in the evenings. I love to walk along the lakefront, etc, but as we all know, it's not a very safe place for a young woman to go alone at night. I would like to meet other larger women in need of a walking partner in my area so that we can get in shape and have "safety in numbers". I'm pretty out of shape lately, so I plan on starting out with leisurely walks ;) I should mention that I smoke, but not alot. Just in case it bothers anyone. ;) |

People who have and

I am planning
on writing a book, on the journey of an eating disorder. I am looking for
your stories, from the beginnings � the moments that made you
start to doubt yourself, lose the control, and the
decision to take the first steps of your eating
disorders. I want to hear stories of your daily struggles, your
hopes and dreams for an end, for you to feel strong and confident again � to
feel
beautiful. I want to hear about your isolation, the way you hide your
pain, and finally I want to hear your stories about the beginning of your
freedom, taking the first steps on your journey to recovery, to the light at
the end of the tunnel. |
