Thanks for reading!

Oh, believe me, I do! And I totally agree. My first response is always, “hey, at least they’re HERE,” you know?

It just baffles me that this happens. I would think that anyone who knows my history with weight would realize that just because I’ve dropped a couple of dress sizes doesn’t mean that I don’t still struggle. Why wouldn’t I take offense to what they’re saying about someone else who looks the way I did two years ago?

Obesity isn’t something that I’ve just been able to “cure” – you and I both know that it’s a brand new lifestyle and a LOT of hard work every single day!

Do you ever bring it to their attention how shallow and rude that is to bag on others? I used to manage a gym, they should be more welcoming and encouraging, be proud of the members that made it to the gym.
