I am a PLUS SIZED GIRL



I've always hated the terms "big girl", "fat chick", "big boned", "thick" and "plus size." I only hate them because of the negativity that comes along with the titles. I remember once an ex (RIP) said "Oh you get your big girl on in the club" and my reaction was (mouth open) "I AM NOT A BIG GIRL" but, in reality I am.Well I am bigger than most girls. Why was I in denial? I hate how society has a way of making us feel bad about our bodies. I know some people think that society/media can't MAKE anyone feel anything, but it affects us in every way-- from what we wear, listen to, think, and behave. BLAH.
I accept the fact that I am a bigfatchickthickplussize girl (yup I pushed it all together!) I do workout for health reasons (my dad has type 2 Diabetes & my mom has Hypertension). So, I really want to reduce my risk of being affected by either one of those and I'm doing it to feel better about myself :)

I just randomly thought about how those words used to hurt me...
 I also used to think that being overweight would affect my chances of finding love or someone who like me for who I am and the way that I am...Its not. I think I let my weight get in my own way. Almost every guy that I worked with this summer liked me-shrugs- I feel kind of bad because I could pretty much pick who I wanted...lol

Here's a great blog that has I guess...fatsperation & it's called Hey Fat Chick I think this blog is so beautiful ;] So check it out if you haven't already!
