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?

Saying that your fat is beautiful is a sign of denial. Humans naturally want to fit in, to be loved, to not be ridiculed, and you just stated the opposite. I think that you have mentally forced yourself to believe something that isn't true so that the mental "weight" that you are under to fit in and be "pretty" is released. Honestly, it isn't healthy to be fat or be in denial. It is good that you are happy with yourself, but it really isn't healthy the way you have come about that view point.

Its good that you have such a healthy sel-esteem...but think of the risk you are putting yourself into. You are an open invitation to Diabetes and Heart Disease, Cancer and other many illnesses which have proven to be fatal for the obese...think about it

It might not be "normal" but I think it's great!!! Love yourself the way you are. Just because other people are obsessed with how they look doesn't mean you need to be. YOU GO GIRL!!!

If you like being big there's nothing wrong with that. If people think it's wrong they're the one with the problems so don't worry about it.

If you're happy fine, the only sincere worry i would have for you, would be to your health. Are you increasing your health risks by being big.

If you like being large, that's all right.
But if it's unhealthy you might want to think twice.
