Life As A Fat Girl

[sarcasticcinder]

You see a fat girl sitting in a restaurant eating a salad, you:

A) Walk on by without a comment because it's really none of yours to police what she is eating.
B) Smile and say, "Good for you! I'm proud of you.", as if the approval and positive reinforcement of a stranger is warranted.
C) Only see the fact that the fat girl is eating and say snidely

You want to know why I think you're one of the coolest people I know? Because when we were in Belize you wore a swimsuit.

People who may be overweight or simply believe they are, can often be so self-conscious that they inadvertently draw attention to themselves because of it. I don't give a fig what a person's body looks like (unless I plan to have sex with it, haha) and it bothers me when people try to hide what they look like. You didn't, and I LOVED you for it. I really admire your confidence. I wish everyone just accepted their body and got on with things. Too many people let their self-perception prohibit them from participating in life.

My friend Elina has an awesome blog about how she's handling her weight and working on her health: http://w0rld4vamps.blogspot.com/ She's super nice and you may want to consider friending her on Facebook. You'd like her.

Thanks, this means a lot to me coming from you.

Sorry, I'm answering so late. We are having some issues with my dad's health, and between that and school, I'm not having much computer time.

I'm more concerned about who you are inside.
