Health at every size, dammit!

Here's a fun little piece on Slate (lots of photos with a few wise words!):

I started a new thread called Fat Words because I need some help in writing an article. I didnt want to ask in here, because I am asking for words that hurt, and this is SUCH a positive thread and I want to maintain that. But if you would like to help me would you please meander over to the other thread? Caution: This could be triggery. If you can bear it, please help. If not, I totally understand and I am sorry for your pain...

I enjoy coming in here, it's been a while since I posted. I was struggling with gaining weight. It happened when I quit a thyroid med, I was happy I could quit, and I had been pudgy before but a lot of weight piled on. I was miserable with the new pounds. I was downright hateful to myself at first, barely looked in the mirror, was begrudging about the fact I needed some larger clothes. I have embraced it more, I am happy to say I am much kinder to myself and feel better. Whether I lose it or not, it will not stop me from doing my best to look pretty and smile at myself in the mirror. Thank you all for a good example.

I'm not sure why I think this belongs here, but it sure does make me smile......

Cruddy self image day that not even wearing my favorite dress can fix.

So I'm going to go home tonight, take a long bubble bath and remind myself that I'm a super babe that deserves everything she's got.
