My fat body

My fat body does wonderful things.

My fat body has been with me for 26 years. It has withstood years of abuse and still works like a trooper. It's been with me through laughter and tears, through occasions both tragic and joyus.

My fat body has celebrated with friends and comforted them. My fat ears have listened to many stories, and my shoulders have absorbed many tears.

My fat body has had lovers and haters. It's learned how to respond to both.

My fat body has a successful career in an industry it loves. It helps me run a household and maintain friendships with wonderful people. My fat body gets me up out of bed every morning and gets me through the day.

My fat body does its damn best every single day. It's flown across oceans to start a new life in a new country. It's travelled and explored. It's seen magnificent things and tasted magnificent foods.

My fat body has never let me down.

My fat body is MY fat body. If that's not good enough for you, then you're not good enough for me.
