I am so proud to be a big and beautiful young lady, however not enough to let my health fail me. I am not ashamed of all my beautiful curves or the way my fat looks as I move, for I am only ashamed of the way my health is slowly but surely failing me. To have no health means no me for Sean or no me for life and what I have worked hard on. As far as being afraid to show my self and leave the house I have never had that, I love to shop, and I love to dress nice. However can't wait to shop at New York & Company...yay!!!

Good attitude! I never had that attitude when I am heavy I get more depressed and close myself off from people. Now that I have dropped 80lbs. I am just starting to come out of the shell I have been hiding away in.

You've got a great attitude. The ability to love and accept yourself no matter what will take you very, very far.

You are very happy to share. I like you. I'm not over you. I thought I was ugly and bigger than you.

I hear ya!!! That's always been me. You can't let being "fat" define who you are or how you carry yourself. Big or small beautiful inside and out always!!

Best,

Lauren
