It is so sad to me that in this day and age the girls haven't progressed much in body image issues. I have been thinking about body image for years. Surprisingly I don't feel like the size I am. What I mean is, that I don't feel plus size except when I enter a fitting room. I am still sorta surprised when I get on a scale that I see the number I do. This is decidedly a good problem to have, I can't imagine I'll feel fat when I'm not. It would be amazing if we all just strived to be healthy in our thoughts, actions and body. That is what I am going to work on. I had someone ask me what my goal weight would be for the wedding which is in July. I said "smaller than I am now." I don't feel like I am not going to try hard, just that if I set a number and don't reach it, I will most likely feel like a failure. We all know it is more than the numbers on the scale that led some of us to gain weight. Little steps will lead me/us to great victory!
