What is too small for me?
September 15, 2009
162.6 lbs.
Yesterday at church, the preacher's text was MYOB...Mind Your Own Business. Immediately after church, this lady approached me to say that I know this goes against what the preacher said because I have to mind your business. She proceeded to explain to me that I was too thin. She went on to say that had she not been plump, she wouldn't have survived her battle with cancer. To say the least, I was speechless. How could I respond without being or seeming rude?
This has become an ongoing problem as I get closer to my goal weight. I haven't been this small in a very long time, so people equate it with too thin when I don't think it's actually the case.
I am fortunate that my body can carry more weight. Currently, I can wear sizes 6, 8, and 10s. I don't want to be unrealistic, but I do want reach my goal.
What a journey!
