Rantings of a fat Woman
Will, I will ever be enough? A daily question I ask myself, sounds insane, doesn't it? There Will be days where I am confident but fear finds a way to weigh me down, someone with new creative ways to remind me that I will never be "beautiful," someone to remind me that if I need to be wanted I need to lose weight first and fast.
Behind the rolls and thighs with cellulite is a woman with a heart, a woman who has not asked for a man's opinion on what she needs to do to earn love, a woman who has broken away from the shackles of society's portrayal of fat women, a woman starving herself and working out in her room because she is too afraid of odd stares and rude comments from jogging, a woman who feels better when she has to throw up after eating, a woman who has to remind people that "fat" is not a title that comes before her name.
She is simply a woman! A woman who deserves to be respected irrespective of her body size. I can't practice self-love without constantly being reminded that I am fat or my favourite word "grotesque." I am a prisoner in my mind and body because I believe each and everyone who says I am not enough.
I am constantly falling off track... No longer allowed the luxury to feel...
Yes, you are enough! Yes, you are beautiful! And do not let anyone tell you otherwise.

ReplyDeleteThe word enough is in itself not enough to describe you.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful is subjective and we may never be beautiful to many people. But to the people who matter, you are amazingly beautiful. Wouldn't trade you for anyone 👌
