Life is what you make of it, I'm so sad when I see comments about people being bullied, I too was bullied at school, not because of my size but because of something else, and it has effected me, it's effected my confidence in myself and my ability to do things, and it makes me angry to hear that the prevention of bullyng in schools doesn't seem to be improving at all ....
Debs, don't stop doing something you love just because of some small minded people who wouldn't know individuality if it hit them in their faces, you are who you are, you're loved by your friends and family and no-one else matters. Afterall if someone told you to stop listening to Meat Loaf you wouldn't, would you? So why stop swimming just because you're not what they think is an acceptable size/shape a woman should be ...... prove them wrong, show them you're stronger than that, and keep doing what you want to do, you can't let other people run your life for you.
Shadow, and Bigmomma, be proud of your children, show them that they are beautiful, in your eyes they always will be. I know this goes without saying but show them you love them, and they don't need to change, they're perfect just the way they are .....
We're all individuals, we're all perfect in our own way ..... we've got to beat the bullies, don't let them ruin your life the way they almost ruined mine.
