  • I am "fatter" than her!
    Perspective. I have wondered when looking at other's whether I looked as big as they are. When I looked in the mirror I saw the same person I had been looking at for years. Bigger size clothes, but I thought I looked okay. Then... a picture at work was unexpectedly taken of me and posted for informational reasons. I was standing training three of my male coworkers and I know exactly how "big" I think they are. I was bigger than all of them. I was shocked! Like catching yourself in a window. This motivated me to lose weight several years ago. Now... I am inching up again and struggling to get healthier. Let's not judge each other and ourselves by size, but support each of us on how healthy we are (or are getting!)
