Dialogue
It's the end of the semester, and once again I didn't lose any weight. In fact, I gained 10 pounds. Sure, I can blame it on the stress of taking too many hours while working full time, but when am I going to get off my butt and do something about this? I don't know. I felt like recording my internal dialogue. I wear it only too well.Labels: body image, canvas

Sometimes I get scared that I will stay this fat forever and though it freaks me out, I still do nothing.
You take such wonderful pictures.
Look at you! Up in an exhibition already. :) I wish I could see it. I love to see your art grow through this site. Thanks for sharing.
Wishing you much success with your stunning artwork -- love these conceptual photographs....
This is just beautiful...I'd love to read every word of it.
I have gained 10 lbs in the past 6 weeks because I had to take steroids to cure the flare of rheumatoid arthrits I had. I hate having to take steroids, it totally pisses me off, because people look at me all puffy and bloated and they think I eat like a pig. I am not in a wheelchair or use a cane, so they don't see my disability, and they only judge me as a pig. It really bugs the hell out of me, but what can I do? If I let the rheum arthritis get way out of hand I WILL end up in a wheelchair,. It's my life, and I have to accept and love myself, even if I get disdainful looks from people when I reach for those size 14 jeans on the rack.
My husband still adores me, he is so wonderful. I am the luckiest woman alive, so I just strut my bulging ass around the store and challenge anyone to ask me why I am so puffy and bloated.
It's no one's god damned business how much you weigh. Your body is not thier chattel. They don't own you, do screw them.
Cunis - you crack me up. Struttin' your bulging ass! :-)
When is your CD coming out?
This is a great image....
