I freely admit that I shop at "a fat shop like Lane Bryant." It's true Gopher, it's a fat shop. I shop there, because I'm fat. Most of us here on this board are fat. I want to take the power out of the word fat. Fat, fat, fat, fat, fat. It's an adjective, just like any other, and I own it. I refuse to let anyone use that word to try to make me feel bad about who I am. I am fat. It does not define me any more than the fact that I am a brunette or that I'm short, or that I'm freckled or anything else. Go ahead and call me fat, I know what size I wear and how much I weigh. It's not a surprise, and it's not an insult. So, get over it.

I AM FAT.



I am a Mom.

I am a wife.

I am short.

I am a psychologist.

I am a friend.

I am a published author.

I am a therapist.

I am sister.

I am a daughter.

I am Irish and Scottish.

I am kind.

I am pretty.

I am twenty-six years old.

I am a good person.

I am smart.

I am funny.

I am caring.

All of these things describe me. And guess what? I am FAT.

What are you?
