From bad quotes, and finally to good, "I had to say: I will eat what I want and look as I please and laugh as loud as I like and use the wrong fork and lick my knife. I had to learn strange and delicious lessons, lessons too few women learn: to love the thump of my steps, the implication of weight and presence and taking of space, to love my body's rebellious hungers, responses to touch, to understand myself as more than a brain attached to a bundle of bones. I have to ignore the cultural cacophony that singsons all day long, Too much, too much, too much. As Abra Fortune Chernik writes, 'Gaining weight and pulling my head out of the toilet was the most political act I ever committed.'"
