The goal has always been skinny. I thought fat was the only thing wrong with me. There's so many people I told myself I'd lose weight for, because in my mind, skinny makes them like you more.
Every time I wanted to cry at the dressing room reflection, I felt that thigh chafing, muffin-topped imperfection. I'd like to think I'm different, stronger now. But I'm not. I'd like to stop caring, I don't know how.
At least I've learned if I do lose weight it shouldn't be for them, he, she It should be for a happier and healthier me.
