Wooohooo!!!!!  I am reading about this after the fact but SO PROUD OF YOU!!!!  What an absolute angel you are to put yourself out there like this 'under the microscope' as you say...you will never know how many people you touch with efforts like this. 

Like Natalie, I usually scoff at sensitivity training because you can't legislate feelings but it's ABOUT TIME we do something about obesity being the last acceptable form of hatred.  It just needs to end and education, education, education will be the only way.

HUGS!!!

  

glad to be touched by my very own angel,
Molly

Thanks Molly - It is something I am very passionate about so I couldn't turn it down.  If educated even one person then my job is completed as far as I feel.  I will be reaching out to hundreds along with the help of some others and I feel we are doing a really good thing.  

Thanks for supporting me!! And thanks for saying how proud of me you are.  It means so much.  Sometimes I worry about posting these things.  I do not want to act as if I am "bragging" more sharing what I am doing to "help".  I hope it never comes across wrong.. I do worry about that also.  You guys make me feel like sharing is OK.  I appreciate that!!

Hope you have a fabulous rest of the weekend!! My night shift went well last night but got ZERO sleep today - apparently I have some adjusting to do to sleep during the day again.  ARGH! I know u can relate to the lack of sleep thing.. so here is to another night.. LOL  I am sure it will be fine but my head will want the pillow more than anything when I get home in the morning!!!
Hugs, Melissa

Thank u so much Dawn!  I hope I can help, it is all I ever wanna do is help anyone I can.  So many people have helped me along my way from this board to the rest of OH to in real life (my angel, my husband), I just want to keep the "pay it forward" ball rolling and try to break down the stereotypes etc that is linked with obesity.  Thanks again!
Hugs, Melissa
