While reading a blog (about a girls bariatric surgery progress) shared with me by a friend of mine, I stumbled on to this article (see link below), and boy did it hit home.
Please don't get me wrong, by posting this, I don't want to give off the impression that I think every thin person sits around and quietly judges obese people.. but we all know someone who does. Am I right? This post is not meant to offend in anyway.... it's more a matter of pre-reflexion (Is that a word?), due to emotions I already feel and dreams I already find myself having about being "gloriously" and "ideally" thin.... ahhh... :)
This is a very interesting article written by someone who had surgery and lost the weight, and is now part of the "thin crowd". She writes about the fact that she hasn't forgotten what it was like to be obese, but now finds herself privy to the judgment passed on those that are just like she once was...
I don't want to forget... you'll know what I mean when you read it! My Secret History
