Weight, weight, weight. That's all anybody is talking about. "I might feel better about myself if I lost weight." "Everyone hates me because I'm too fat." "I need to lose weight to feel good about myself." "I may be anorexic." Guess what? I don't buy into it. My insecurites about the opposite sex are not because I am ashamed of how I look. Honestly I could care less. Weight is not a big thing for me. When I become so overweight that I come to a point where it is a problem to my health, then it becomes a problem. I get regular exercise, granted I don't eat a blanced diet, but really what's the problem? The problem is that our society tells us that we should be ashamed if we are not normal. Well guess what, fat people are normal. Why do we let skinny people run our lives? I constantly joke about it in marching band. I consistently skip to my sets, everybody laughs. My response is "Haven't you ever seen a fat man skip before?" I am perfectly comfortable with who I am. In fact I think that losing weight would make me be a completely different person than I am right now. I think that I would have less confidence in myself. So when I feel the need to scale back, which I do, then I will. But my weight or your weight has nothing to do with how I see you or how I see myself. |
