About me

User: blytheswideshut
Name: Karyn
I read a lot of other Blogs, journals and diaries. I make stuff. Sometimes I write stuff too. I kept a geocities diary for 3 years once. I'm hoping that will mean I'll keep posting here for more than a month or two.

getting there

I really want to thank everyone again for their kind words, comments and support in response to my fat post.

A number of things have come of that post, and I want to share them.

I have been able to see the true source of my anger.

I have come to understand myself more deeply and clearly than ever before.

I have found a new level of acceptance and maturity about who and what I am.

I can honestly say that I like who I am, but I do not like how other people treat me because of it.

I hate how I'm treated, not how I look.

I hate that I have become such a doormat.  That everytime anyone says anything about weight, exercise, health - anything I go into polite, apology, mmm mm, yes I know, yes m'am, no sir mode.

I hate who I've allowed myself to become.

I don't want to be skinny.  I just want to live my life with honesty and no apologies.


Thank you everyone.
