Hello!
I'm not exactly new, but I haven't been a regular poster for quite some time. I figured I would drop a thread here, then go to my diary. Well, one of my diaries.
I just turned 35, I am a stay at home mom of 4 kids, I've been married a year(almost), and I am fat. Yes, I said it. I'm fat. Do you notice that whenever you call yourself fat, there are usually a few people that pop up and vehemently tell you that you "aren't fat?" That you are "beautiful" and that you "look great!" I know that they are well meaning, but I also feel that they are the enablers. They are the real life versions of the little voices in your head that tell you that it's totally cool to wolf down 3 slices of pizza in a sitting, because you only live once. I have to tell these people that it's okay to call myself fat. I call myself fat, because I am fat. I have to put myself in the reality that I am not fit, and that something needs to change. I am 5'5 (5'6" on a good day,) and 226lbs. That is fat.
So, there it is. I hope to meet some new friends on this journey, and reconnect with some awesome people that were here long ago! I hope everyone is having a wonderful day!
