I’m 26 and weigh 130kg; in the ‘obese’ category. I’m single, never had a boyfriend, even though I’ve been told I have a ‘pretty face’ I am quite sure no one has ever been physically attracted to me. Yet, I am still happy the way I am! I love the way I look, I don’t cringe when I see myself naked. When I was younger my dream was to be thin but now I have other dreams. I see the way people look at me ‘no matter how pretty your clothes are you will always look fat’. Am I stupid for wearing pretty things? Are only slim girls admired for dressing nicely!? I know there are disadvantages of being very large; hunting for clothes that actually fit you, wondering if you are going to fit in economy seats, tolerating people looking at you passing stupid comments and giving shitty advise on how to ‘loose weight’. Why should I feel bad if I am fat, why should I change myself to please society, why should I have to loose weight to find love? Why should I let people make me feel bad about my body?
