Finally faced the truth about my body. It isn't the first time I've done it, but now my legs/knees are buckling and revolting under the pressure of carrying around too much weight, anD my age doesn't help either. Years of evading mirrors are over, I hope. Soooo, I did what any other person might do, I sought help. Not Weight Watchers, although I know it works, but this obese woman needs more monitoring and one-on-one education (also more expensive, of course!).
We can put space stations out there, we can do amazing things in the medical arena, we can make things out of plastics, why can't we make lettuce taste like chocolate?
And why can't we find more complimentary words to describe people like me? Fat, obese, pleasantly plump, big boned, what's that all about? Only a real thin person could have come up with the word obese! Add insult to injury and call me MORBIDLY OBESE !!
So, here I am, facing a hard cold truth, turning 60, legs gone bad from transverse myelitis, along with arthritis, and now too much skin with stuff inside it!
WHAT NOW LORD !!
