Im going to be brutally honest and share way more than I should and be so thankful this is anonymous.
Im obese and always have been since I have been a child. I’m 5ft 1in, 23st 6lbs and 35 years old.
in my 20s I was basically fat positive and thinking the world should change for me and not fitting into seats was the seats problem and not mine. I brushed any concerns under the carpet and it was just a part of me.
Now I’m in my 30s fuck am I feeling it. I admit I can no longer reach to wipe my bum so I use a medical aid. My legs and knees kill me just walking 50ft and even walking up the stairs to the bathroom feels like a trek. I no longer look forward to holidays because it means being exhausted and sore from walking and too small seat. I don’t do a lot of things that bring me joy because I physically can’t. Me and my husband have had sex once in the last year due to our weight and health. I constantly worry that I am going to die young. I’m scared I’m past the point of no return as surgery is not an option.
So basically I understand where Becky is coming from because I was exactly the same at her age and I wouldn’t thank anyone for saying I needed to change. Yes I was fat but I was still sexy but with hindsight I urge her to please make a change now whilst she can, before even walking becomes too much for her knees to take.
