I wish I could say that I can relate to everything you said in this post, but I've always been skinny. Still, even though I never was fat, I constantly got shit for years for being underweight.

i found my way here through a link and it caught my attention. Made me really take a look at myself. I have never denied the fact that I am fat cuz I am and slowly i am working on feeling better about myself. One thing that has always been hard is letting guys in because i always feel that I am a turn off for them, but as i am coming to see alot of guys and gals dont really care. If they like me they like all of me.

I thank you for this post because I love your confidence and your self awareness. Kinda made me go woah. you know what. even at the weight i am at, i can just start feeling better about myself by accepting and working with what i have. Thank you. and you know what your gorgeous. inside and out.
