My Body Stories Starting Point
I am the one in black. I don't even know where it started. The worst thing in my life and I don't even know how it started. I don't even have a starting point OR an ending point.
I Love Who I Am
When I was growing up, as for many people, food was a reward and a comfort. The scales slowly crept up and my body was so out of balance I couldn't tell if I was hungry or full - it felt the same to me. At 18 I was clinically obese and hated the way I looked.

This site is here as an accurate reflection of what real women look like. All women.
Why?
A recent study found that 95% of non-eating disordered women overestimate the size of their hips by 16% and their waists by 25%, yet the same women were able to correctly estimate the width of a box.

Fat In My Head
09/19/2012

One day I realized fat was in my head and that I had to start loving my body regardless of the number inside the fold of my pants.

 

I'm not the weight I was in high school but I'm also not the same person I was in high school -I hated my body even then and I was 4 sizes smaller.

Last summer I was hit by a car while riding my bike and when I was immobile I gained a significant amount of weight and I was more concerned about the number on the scale than my foot; it was a rather dark time for me.

This My Body Gallery website has helped me get some grasp on reality and that I'm not disgusting and neither are other women my size, in fact one women was to stunning I cried.

I want to love myself, I want to spend less time in the mirror calling myself names I wouldn't ever allow anyone else to call me.

This is a long process.
