Hmmmm, isn't that complacency?

For me, I couldn't accept myself fat...simply wasn't who I was or wanted to be....if I can't accept it, I wouldn't want others to accept it for me either. For the few who are truly happy where they are at and what they look like for them....more power to them. They really don't need to grandstand it all over the place to prove to others that we have to accept it. However, the majority of us aren't happy with the way things are and need not feel like failures because we WANT and CHOOSE to change the way things are...even if it's extreme to someone else.

American right...the pursuit of happiness.....
