I love a lot of HEART songs. "Alone", "All I wanna do is make love to you", and on- I feel your pain! I used to be slender, toned and someone told me "You know how many girls liked you". I was like, man what?! - Why was I last to know? Was it because I wouldn't wear my glasses? Was embarrassed? Could not see....? Was it because I was lost in my own mind of depression/no support/ bad esteem? (teens)
Well- by getting rid of some toxic relationships, abusive people (some of these relationships rekindled) and different now. More respectful. Since then, I bought a house- got back to working (more), wrote some cool music- released some music - had another child (Sunsetta) * I made that name up in high school. I, we used it. Sunsetta is a love. She is doing well. Very talented musically and creatively. She has special needs, however, this is life. Very few of us end up with no health issues. It's what you do with it.
My point of this post is this. Stop shaming and judging people by their looks and weight. You have no idea what they are going through. You have no idea why they gained weight. Especially with meds. They are not going to put an ad on their forehead explaining it. Why should they? Sick of it. People come in all shapes and sizes. So what. This is life. As you get older science will even tell you, life tries to pack on the pounds. I love who I am. I don't really care anymore what people think. I am doing the best I can. I want to do better. I want to thrive. I want to have some cool, good friends. Better friends and on. I know you are out there. Why not? Quit assuming and being scared of people. I am feeling more social now than ever. I used to be too much an open book to people I thought would be "friends". Bolted, some of them. Let me tell you another thing. You quit drugs and all those so called friends- 99 percent of them leave, once you quit. I don't judge people by their decisions and what they choose to do. But, understand why I am who I am and my choices. In some cases, you may have ended up dead, or close to it. (been there at 19) Now 45. Yes. I made it this far, let's keep going! If I had not been through all that- I may not be who I am today, I do love, like myself regardless.
I once had a surgeon tell me to never have weight loss surgery. Yeah. I am overweight Yep. I can make it better and the struggle is real. My mindset is changing yet again. I want to do this for myself and anyone that cares. Family, daughter. Whatever. Whomever. If you like someone tell them, because and again, life is too short to not. Attend their lives, not their funeral- as many do.
