Request for assistance...
Hi all, For those of you that don't know me my name is Michelle "Shelly" I had RNY in 2006, been hanging around OH off and on, time & life permitting since. I've blogged my journey too... which has helped me keep my head in the game. Highly recommend it. Wishing all you starting on this road all the best... WLS was truly the best gift I ever gave myself. Hope you will feel the same way.
So the request...
The Obesity Action Coalition (OAC) has a petition to eliminate hideous Apps like Fatify, Fat You (fat shaming, tools of bullies, that have no purpose in this world and need to go) and I'd love for the OAC to have a few more signatures on it. Here's some more 411 and the link to the petition: http://theworldaccordingtoeggface.blogspot.com/2014/08/pleas e-sign-obesity-action-coalition.html The developer calls it "entertainment" and I know some people will say "get over it, it's a joke" but as a person affected by obesity most of my life there was nothing entertaining or funny about it and my heart hurts for the kids that will be taunted with crap like this. Thanks for adding your voice and helping send a message that it's not OK.
OK off the soapbox ;) for now. Thanks again and feel free to tweet (I'm @Eggface you can scan my tweets and RT one of those tweets, easy peasy) or share on Facebook. Appreciate it.
