What Did/Does Being Overweight Say for Me?

I wanted to start a new post on this topic because I'm not sure what happened within the "Hidden Benefits of Body Size" thread -- I never did see the original cross-posted "attack" post and am glad I didn't -- but I thought I would start fresh with a new post so as not to prolong that thread. Here's my own list which I jotted down yesterday, expanding on the "messages" that I am unconsciously sending by being overweight (though I'm much less overweight than I used to be) -- so some of these are more appropriate to my old body size, but I was just writing stream-of-consciousness so that I wouldn't stifle any messages. Some of them surprised me. I would love to hear yours -- Chris' were great, and inspired me to write my own. What does my weight say (or what did it say) for me? I won't attract your boyfriend, so you don't have to worry about me. I won't pose a threat to you in any way. I'm no bimbo. I refuse to conform. I'll do anything to be friends. I want you to accept me for who I am. I'm more interested in brains than appearance. I give in to myself, and I'll give in to you too. Some of these I am surprised to see and a bit embarrassed to admit, but it is good to see them out in the open. I don't even understand a couple of them, LOL. Mary 325-163-145 Excellent and congratulations.
