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
