I was watching a popular show, with a popular guest who is a star of many recent movies, and I realized how tiny she was. And, in comparison, how huge I was, in spite of my recent weight loss.
I know it is what the media is putting out there as what is normal, and I shouldn't be body shamed, but, for some reason, watching this, I was. I wanted to be that size 2 or whatever she is, when I am so many sizes above that. And I felt abnormal. A freak of nature. And it made me aware of how I was seen by those of the opposite sex. Too much; too large. An abnormal freak of nature.
Can I just be who I am and be accepted for that? Really? Why does society feel it must go by what it sees on media, and makes judgments on that?
