I was just surfing the net when I came across some empowering voices from BBW. It got me thinking why is being fat such a horrible thing in our world, besides obvious health issues, if one was truly healthy yet overweight is it truly a big deal? I am a large woman and I am rather content with it. I know if I eat less take out and junk, exercise and eat healthy portions I could lose weight but why should I do this when I already love who I am. I do admit I dislike looking at myself in pictures with other people because I guess I can see how much larger I am but I don’t actually feel as large as I am and when I look into the mirror I think I look good most of the time. If I hated who I am then losing weight is NOT going to change that.
When I hear skinny or fit girls talk about how much weight they need to lose or they need to hit the gym because they are getting flabby or just downright insult themselves it makes me feel sorry that they have absolutely no self love. But when they start hating on me or criticizing me because I could lose some weight then they’re just being an ass. Don’t hate on me because you are not happy with yourself. People have to realize that not every “fat Chick” out wants to change their bodies, when we complain about something not being in our size, we are not particularly complaining about being fat we are complaining that they don’t make this in our size. Should I change my body because I like a pair of jeans that only comes in size XS, I don’t think so! Not for you or anybody!
