I hate what society has come to. Heavier women are shamed and accused of "fat acceptance" and that they aren't healthy. I'm not thin, nor do I think I'll be that way again any time soon. However, I don't see anything wrong with me. I have a healthy cholesterol level, healthy blood sugar, and healthy blood pressure. If one of those were unhealthy, then yes, I'd do something like eating differently and healthier foods to get them back to healthy levels. Another thing to note is that my current meds are prone to cause weight gain, and that's something I've come to accept as part of my being healthy mentally. A trade off of sorts. Either I'm skinny and mentally unstable, or healthy mentally and a little chubby.
I'm still able to get around, I can walk up and down stairs and have no joint pain doing so. I'm perfectly healthy and plus sized. I can still buy clothes off the rack at stores that don't necessarily cater to plus sized women, so I'm not THAT huge.
I make it a point to look at myself in the mirror while naked and say "I'm beautiful" and make sure I mean it. It works to boost my self esteem. Sure I'm not a super model by any means, but who's to say a super model can't be my size? I love how fashion these days is becoming more and more diverse.
Anyways, I guess I'm just annoyed that some people find there own self worth by shaming people such as myself, that is to say, people who aren't thin. Healthy doesn't equate to thin, but rather it equates to what works for you.
So those idiots who are shaming me for "accepting" my weight as it is can go and suck it. They have no clue what I've been through and what I deal with on a daily basis with my mental health. They have no right to accuse me of anything. NO RIGHT!!!
Sorry, this turned into a rant of sorts. I'm okay now. Carry on.
