We talked about this before. Headless fatties, the sad truth of how the media treats us of the rounder persuasion. I posted mine, I plane to update every time I hit a 25 pound loss. The reason I am bringing it up again is that Yahoo! had the headless as the headliner story on the page and it bothered me. I mean, should I be so ashamed that I hide my head? Is my face not pretty because I am fat?To this you might say, "Actually FAT you do hide your face."
To which I might reply, "That is for my own protection, HELLO this is the world wide web and it is dangerous." Only on the inside I would be thinking, "You're right, so I guess that I have been properly shammed. Well done, media!" Only I don't think that I am headless for either of those reasons. I think I am headless because I see my eating disorder as and addiction. I want the anonymous that AA gives to alcoholics. I want to talk freely and openly and explore my disease with out being attached to it. I used to think that I would show my face once I made weight, I am not sure. I will always be in recovery, so I will always need my place.
