Response to an entry about Fat

Another "raised by wolves post"

Another Holly wrote "boiling Frogs and Family" It's a good piece about people who don't realize what "normal" is because they haven't experienced it

You are one of competent empowering woman I know. I am so glad you triumphed over your upbringing and have love. =)

[malterre]

That's very sweet of you to say. I think you're great as well, i just think you need confidence and teflon-coating!

[ravena_kade]

I used to be really confident, but the last 8 years of work beat the crap out of me... I am sure it will return once I find a job to toss myself into.

That's tough. I'm glad you found sword fighting.

[malterre]

Me too. I might be a weirdo, but I'm a weirdo who gets paid to do it LOL

At one point my rallying cry was "When you're stupid, fat and ugly there is nowhere to go but up!"

Heh, maybe I need that tattooed somewhere.

And yea, so much WTF. And I don't have time to answer it while at the office.

I'm glad you have come to terms with and understand your body. You are much happier about it than when we first met. "Swordfighting works for me" should be a weight loss program.

"She would make enormous meals and then eat a tiny bit. After that I was obligated to eat the rest. If I didn't finish my food I was ungrateful, but I ate too much and was fat"

Ugh. I hate stuff like this. Seriously.

I'm glad you've found your peace on this one, at least when it comes to swords and your personal awesomeness. And you are, personally, awesome.
