*Since I’ve been getting this all day, I’m just going to say it here, my boyfriend gave me access to his account so that we don’t have to keep track of two anonymous accounts. Yes, the post history is all from a male, that’s the reason why. Your choice to believe me or not.*
I have always been a BBW, even before I had kids. I grew up in a very religious household, and between the shame for my body and my upbringing, I was only allowed to wear one-piece bathing suits when I was younger.
When I move to college freshman year, I shared a dorm with three other girls, who were body positive. Whenever we went to the gym or to any pool party. I was always wearing my one piece. I would get looks from guys, but would immediately feel shame in my body, even though I knew there were guys that liked curvy girls like me, I thought my body was ugly. While my girlfriends tried to encourage me, I could never get over my self image during those first few months.
