    Sal,

    You are NOT FAT!

    I am starting to get a bit preturbed with all this talk of negative body image.

    You are all beautiful and gorgeous. When I see pictures of my lovely DFW friends, all I see is beautiful shining spirits that help bring happiness and friendship to my life. I do not see 'fat'

    Please, lets just realise that we are wonderful and stop focusing on the negative.

    (and I know I am just as guilty of this sometimes, but honestly, you are all truly beautiful as you are)

    I have cried so much today, I look like I've done 10 rounds with Frank Bruno...


    I'm such a goose.

    Totally agree - Sally, I read your post about your legs and thought :confused::confused: - I thought you looked toned, athletic, healthy, not remotely fat - we are women, we are supposed to have thighs, hips, boobs......we are not 12 year old boys, and I know very very few men who would honestly say they like very skinny women.

    :D:D

    I know I'm on a diet - but I would be mortified if I dropped below a size 12 and lost my curves!

    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
    Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.

    The zip broke on my purse today so I HAD to replace it with a lovely Radley one.
    I was forced, bullied... honest!!!!
