Trash · Memories

I just wanted to thank everybody for the incredibly supportive comments on my last post. It means a lot to know that I have people who like me just the way I am! It's especially nice that I've known all you people for a while now, so you've all seen me at various different sizes. That helps more than you know.

On that note, a little bit about my fat history. Turns out that, even at my natural adult lowest weight (not counting those months I lived on drugs and alcohol), I was still considered "overweight" at 25 BMI. That's kind of ridiculous. So, to be considered "normal," I have to live on acid, wine and Sprite? OK no.

I will never forget what this one person said on one of those "OMG Huge Fatties!" cable shows. It went something like this: "Being a compulsive eater is like being an alcoholic, only you are forced to have three drinks a day."
