Some thoughts for a Saturday afternoon


I am not skinny, lets put that out there right now........I want to lose over 120 pounds, not only is that a whole person, that's my sister!! But I never considered myself fat until my shoulder surgery. When it came to find clothes that would fit over this massive sling, I soon found that I would have to be in the double or triple x's for this to be possible......and one day between the humiliation of my mother having to shower me and the occasional glimpse in the mirror, I soon realize that there was a problem.

Like a bad dream, everytime I get out of the shower I now see all the imperfections on my body. The stretch marks, the cellulite, the big love handles the protrude from my hips and it has pretty much been down hill since then.

My question is: When did it become okay for people to comment on someone's weight? I had some weird encounters this week, that has def left me puzzled, and I am sure they were not meant to be hurtful, but when someone is over weight they realize it, how is saying something going to help that???
