I was the size people would either stop and stare or else they would quickly look away as to not be caught staring.

I do the same thing!! Even 8 years out, I have no idea what my body looks like. When we are out, I make my boyfriend point out people the same size as me. Right now we are obsessed with that "Naked and Afraid" show (we love stupid reality shows). I make him tell me which ones I resemble.

I love to people watch! There are so many walks of life, walking among us! Fairs, malls, festivals, concerts, etc.. such great places to see a wide variety of people interacting.

I totally do that too peach! I really try not to be too hard on myself. I used to be a body shame person. I have learned so much here and don't do that anymore thank God.
