Today’s Food for Thought – More to Love

I watched the season premier of More to Love last night.  It was a little cheesy, but there is some serious thought provoking reality in there too.  More to Love is a Bachelor for larger size women.  YEAH! Big Girls deserve love too. 


Pop Watch has a good synopsis of the first show.  I rarely sit down to watch TV but there have been a few shows I watch regularly.  American Idol and Dancing with the Stars.  This will be a Tuesday night replacement for those. 


Do I have my favorites yet?  No.  Need to watch a little bit more but I was sad that he did not pick Michelle, the cute, bubbly blond photographer with the awesome attitude.  Maybe she should be the next Bachelorette. 


This show is a nice break because it is real.  It sheds light on how important "body" becomes in relationships.  A STRONG theme with all the contestants…  I just want to be loved for who I am, not my body.  I have said that for over 30 years.  It made me realize that I am certainly not alone and it isn't just a mind trick to cover my "weight" issues.  That is a very real feeling for people who have been on the receiving end of the "stereotype" and judgments of being larger.


Did you watch the show?  What were your thoughts?
