In the fall I am going to begin my thesis and I have a strong interest on doing it on something related to HAES and curriculum development- either in med school or dietetics. <br /><br />This issue is of personal significance for me after battling an eating disorder for the last decade+ and I have found the concept of HAES to be fundamental to my recovery process.<br /><br />The current state of fat discrimination and stereotypes in our society sickens me, and I know first hand the kind of self esteem damage those messages inflict.<br /><br />So, anyways, I guess my question for you is do you have any ideas for me, or resources to which to direct me? <br /><br />Thanks! <br /><br />ps- great blog:)Cathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05250854531274548544noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6974004432153336731.post-64773270200137047782009-03-04T13:16:00.000-08:002009-03-04T13:16:00.000-08:00Hi.

The instructor's name is Gil Hedley www.gilhedley.com He loves superficial fascia (adipose tissue) and loves teaching people about it with respect. Way more educational than blobs of stupid fake fat. Here is a wonderful article he wrote: <BR/>http://www.gilhedley.com/ghpdfs/Fat.pdf <BR/><BR/>And an interview with him on youtube about his anatomy class:<BR/><BR/>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kvVzZ5yVwR8 <BR/><BR/>Way to go! I'm so happy you are doing this!<BR/><BR/>Nicole BlissUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15622109776777470442noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6974004432153336731.post-15050238709215346162009-01-19T19:54:00.000-08:002009-01-19T19:54:00.000-08:00The 5 pound blob seems huge.

I wish losing 5 pounds really made that much difference, but usually it's not all fat that I lose.FlyGracefullyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17266353282818430314noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6974004432153336731.post-54989819196503211492009-01-09T11:48:00.000-08:002009-01-09T11:48:00.000-08:00LOL!

Well, let's see... everything else that happens to be inside the human body looks of course totally esthetically pleasing, particularly when viewed out of context, right? (And it naturally smells like rose petals, too.) <BR/><BR/>I never dissected animals in high school, but I had to dissect several of them in one of my biology lab courses at college. I also watched two autopsies as a (voluntary) part of the same course. Although I did not like the fact that animals had been killed just so I could take them apart, both, dissecting animals and watching the autopsies was very interesting. However, if I wouldn't have been so fascinated by it it also would have been pretty damn disgusting.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
