» AuntCinders - good article
Thank you for the article. it is very good and thought provoking.I wish that I could say I lovingly accept myself at the size I am...but I constantly berate myself sith all my negative self-talk about how I could be so much better if I were thin. I really want to get over this and have recently started seeing a counselor in hopes that I can work through this.
Life is too short to go through it hating myself.
Keep up the good work,
Cindy

Cindy -You shouldn't feel badly about yourself. Many of us are unsuccessful at our attempts to diet, yet we know that we would prefer to be thinner, although maybe not THIN.
Check out the message board "A friendly place for support" at
http://angelfire.com/ok/leezeeboo/weight...
Here I have found alot of people who share the same feelings and experiences we do. Some post on a daily basis, others just once in a while. The regulars talk about everything including diet success and failures and all situations that affect them as "plus" sized people. The best part is that you can read the boards without joining or posting, if you chose not too. I have found this site very inspriational. It's nice to know sometimes that there are other people out there who feel EXACTLY the same way I do!
Good Luck.

» giggles13 - fat acceptance
I agree with many of you about loving yourself but its so hard to deal with the world hating you based on your fat. Its just like someone hating someone cause of the color...Diets are hard and than you have to live with the flab that comes after the weight loss...its alway s a fight to win...
Life is so hard and some have it easy and judge us but all we can really do is please ourselfs cause you cant please everyone.
