Field Notes from a Fat Girl
EXCESS MATTERS
About the Trail
Not a weight loss blog. Not body positivity. The place where someone sits with the full truth.
Excess Matters holds grief and hope in the same breath. Long-form essays, honest data, and science that respects the weight of lived experience. A field guide for anyone navigating excess — weight, food, consumption — with warmth and without shortcuts.
