“I mean, is ‘fat’ really the worst thing a human being can be? Is ‘fat’ worse than ‘vindictive’, ‘jealous’, ‘shallow’, ‘vain’, ‘boring’ or ‘cruel’? Not to me … I’d rather [my daughters] were independent, interesting, idealistic, kind, opinionated, original, funny – a thousand things, before ‘thin’. Let my girls be Hermiones, rather than Pansy Parkinsons.”
J.K. Rowling

Let us all remember that we are so very much more than our weight. Living healthy is a great goal. But it's one of thousands.

Peace to all
Margaret

    RIGHT ON!!!
    OP, true you gotta love yourself from the inside first in order to ever be truly happy. But that doesn’t mean we can strive to be the best us that we can be on the inside and outside.
    Nothing but love for you sister, you can do whatever you put your mind to.
