I have been heavy as long as I can remember. I remember being 12 or 13, starting middle school, already shopping in a plus size store with my mother, unable to find clothes that were "in". All through middle school and high school I was picked on for my weight. Usually, I didn't let it get to me.
We are preparing for our 10 year high school reunion and have a group on Facebook. We all post on there, reminiscing about the years past. One classmate in particular started posting on there about typical "high school" stuff. Who was your crush? etc... Several people posted about him being a nice guy and a gentleman. My ass!
One year, in my year book, he actually told me to "lose a little weight". You want to talk about embarrassment and devastation? Yea! So now that I'm looking back on this, I have a little more motivation. I want to go back to my reunion, half the woman I was in high school. Not really half, but you get my drift.
I will walk in with my head held high and a smile on my face. I'm waiting for every one to see how far I've come and then I can give them the big FUCK YOU!!! especially this dude. Let these people try to talk to me. I'm too good for THEM now. They can all bite me!
Needless to say, my reunion has been the motivation for my commitment but I've made the commitment to myself. Nothing will hold me back!
