Sexual Violence Issues and Staying Fat

Some form of sexual violence, or at the very least sexual pressure or intrusiveness, happens to every woman in our culture.  I can’t speak to the male experience, but I would feel safe in saying that a great many of them have been affected by unwelcome and invasive sexual attention as well.

What do I mean by sexual violence?  For the context of this discussion about weight, I mean any of the following:

Science Says You're Screwed - Work Around It

Science has spent a lot of time and money to figure out why people regain weight they’ve lost. People will lose a lot of weight, and then it all comes back, usually with a bonus.

Traditional “common sense” says that it’s a failure of willpower. But how come someone can eat an utterly regimented 1,000 calories a day for a full year, and then not have enough willpower to stick to 1,800?

It’s not willpower.

Wow, I've been a bad blogger!!!

I'm sorry, I've been totally AWOL. I've been working on an entirely different book project, called Emancipation: A Civil War Vampire Novel. It's been pretty all-consuming, and it seems I've neglected this blog for way too long.

I am making up for it right now, with some all-new material that isn't even in the book.
