October 6th is National Plus Size Appreciation Day #PlusSizeAppreciationDay. I don’t know about you but I’ve been plus-sized all my life. I hate it and I want to change it but haven’t been able to. Now, I’m not only plus-sized but obese.
Even though there is not a Holiday to celebrate Plus Size people I want to lose weight more than ever for my heath. Otherwise I may not be here when Charlie gets married and to me that is scary. Not, only that it would keep my knees and back from hurting all the time.
I don’t need to just lose weight in my stomach but in my breast they are huge and at times embarrassing and I’ve tired of feeling bad about the way I look and that I might embarrass my son and David by my appearance. As of today I’m taking my life back and somehow someway I’m going to lose at least a 100 pounds. Would you like to join me in taking my life back?
