What I'm saying is that I'm grateful that I no longer attach my entire identity to the size of my butt. There's too much life to be lived to let that kill my self confidence and motivation.JackieMacDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14979691048511777585noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1591350507271655442.post-49327439855111274732011-03-08T17:53:07.185-08:002011-03-08T17:53:07.185-08:00Great post, Jackie.

Heck, size 10 sounds pretty thin to me. I figure if I get to size 16 again in this lifetime after quitting smoking and gaining weight real fast that I will achieve a major triumph...it's all a matter of perspective!Carolyn Toddhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03618998313704070525noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1591350507271655442.post-45345668684697335322011-03-07T20:29:34.768-08:002011-03-07T20:29:34.768-08:00l: our society is so messed up on what the perfec...l: our society is so messed up on what the perfect weight/size is. my personal experience comes from being naturally on the very thin side. the short version of my story is that regular false accusations from classmates and adults of me being anorexic or bulimic almost caused me to be one of those when i finally started filling out. it wasnt until i was in my early 20's until i finally had enough self confidence to wear proper fitting clothing after wearing large/extralarge clothing since i was in junior high school in an attempt to avoid those false anorexic/bulimic accusations. <br /><br />so i say, enjoy you for who you are.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1591350507271655442.post-27255826916159702082011-03-07T19:18:28.032-08:002011-03-07T19:18:28.032-08:00Wow.....it's amazing to me that someone would ...Wow.....it's amazing to me that someone would even leave a comment like that.
