Cathy Classics by Cathy Guisewite for June 10, 2010

Works for me! So are they going to be selling thesauruses next to the bathing suits this year?

Womanly, curvaceous, healthy, robust, and voluptuous. Is SHE going to buy this or am I going to get hit with a coat hanger?

Look fat? When will she accept that she is fat? (and yes, I *am* fat; it’s not something one can easily hide, especially in a bathing suit, lol!!!!)

Better a bit “curvaceous” than a toothpick. Much healthier, too.

Like I’ve said previously, I’m a big girl (genetics on my father’s side). I don’t mind because I like the way I look even though I’m surrounded by skinny women. I just know that I won’t have issues like osteoporosis in the future. It used to bother me that I was the bigger girl on the block, but not anymore… I’ve made peace with it, and since then, I’ve actually lost a few pounds… LOL!

I’ll go with it all, except for healthy. I rarely see her exercise (and her poor dogs will agree with me).

Us fat girls have got it,remember Thin may be in,but fat is where its at!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wait until Cathy turns 50. She’ll then realize life is about having fun more than it’s about looking perfect.

“Wait until Cathy turns 50. She’ll then realize life is about having fun more than it’s about looking perfect.”

Only after she goes through YEARS of ANGST about turning 50……

I can see the series of strips now–all devoted to Cathy’s massive freak-out over turning 50. :)

aka “fat.”
