What My Weight Doesn’t Tell You About Me

SPOILER ALERT! It’s a lot!

Today we’re going to talk about what weight doesn’t tell you about me. A lot of people will say that looking at me, a size 24, tells them I’m:

• Greedy
• Lazy
• Stupid
• Undisciplined
• Unhealthy
• Going To Die Soon
• Not Prepared To Exercise
• Happy To Eat Junk All Day Instead Of Healthy Food
• Ugly
• Not Sexy

All of the above is utter bullshit, and today is the day I call it that.

1) I love food, but I’m not greedy, or at least, no more so than anyone else. Of course, we all overindulge occasionally; it’s part of being human. My meals, however, are no bigger than my sister’s, who is literally half my size.

2) I’m not lazy. I hold down a full-time job, write this blog, write professionally, and still make time for my veggie garden.
