happy being fat?

[Sooh]

Aw cuddlyfairy you say the nicest things and thank you - I am blushing here.

The compliment was much appreciated though and I must confess to feeling the exact same way about you too and I can just tell we would hit it off together famously.

Re that silly woman, I don't know fancy saying that to you, what business is it of hers anyway? Some folk never cease to amaze me though and it's true what they say when they say "There's nowt so queer as folk?" They gossip behind your back about how gross we are and then when we lose it they go all self righteous and tell us we've gone too far and all that flipping malarkey! Good god - what's up with em all? Ha ha

Sue, thank you too, a mutual appreciation society.

People are strange aren't they! I suppose the world needs all sorts!

I am used to being talked about behind my back and to my face. I make out it doesn't bother me but underneath I know it does. As long as I have the love and support of my OH and children then that's all I care about. Blow others and their comments, LT works for me and I'm sticking with it till the end! I will put my anniversary celebrations and birthday on hold till then!

I think that women are more critical of women too, although I must confess that I have been out with my friends, and we've gossipped about someone's clothes or hair (although surely that is human nature ?)

There will always be some men that want a dolly bird on their arm (because they feel insecure about themselves ??) just as there'll always be some women that are with men for their money.

I've got 2 girls that are 11 and 12 and they are both so self conscious about how they look, they've got fat tummies, they've got fat legs, they don't want to go swimming because everyone will look at them and I really struggle trying to tell them that Victoria Beckham hasn't got a body that they should aspire to have. Neither of them is over weight, they eat fairly healthily with the ccasional takeaway or McDonalds. They probably eat more crisps and chocolate than they should do and I tell them that's what they need to cut down on, not all food.

They are certainly both more self aware than I was at that age.

kids do seem to be alot more worried about how they look now. whn i was that age i never worried about bein fat atall i was young and had fun growing up. they start so young now with the way they look, loosing virginity etc. its all a competition to see who can grow up fastest
