You have to be what you are. Even a close-to-normal weight, I towered over my siblings and was always broad shouldered like the farm girl I was. Tough to be big and awkward when your little sister is extremely petite man bait . I'm looking forward to seeing how different I'll look without the extra weight (God willing!) but I've gotten over trying to be "cute". I can do striking, attractive and have delusions of elegant, but in hindsight, cute was not a look I ever should have aspired to. Big bones? Maybe compared to the women in the family who have to use kids backpacks because they're so narrow in the shoulder. I don't have that ultra petite build.
Only time will tell if I'm actually "big boned" - I could always throw a mean bale of hay - but however I end up looking, I will do my best to rock the hell out of it.
And ignore anyone but the people who already love me as I am
