How did I become this fat person?
What am I trying to communicate through my fat?
Don't touch me. Don't love me. Don't come close to me. Don't try intimacy. I'll hurt you by withdrawing; I'll leave you before you leave me. Then I'll retreat and hide inside my shell of protection...my fat. I will smile on the outside and cry on the inside. I'll laugh so you think I'm okay but then I breakdown in silent tears, alone. I choose all of this because I'm afraid when I change you won't like me anymore. Isn't that sad????

No wonder I'm so fat.
I've gained 40 pounds since Jan 2008.
I weighed 185 then 225.
Why?
Lack of love for self during a long time of suffering
and feeling completely alone.
