Just because I’m overweight
Doesn’t mean I’m self-conscious
Doesn’t mean I get jealous over skinny people
And it certainly doesn’t mean I don’t love myself
Just because I’m overweight
Doesn’t mean I am on a diet
Doesn’t mean I don’t love my dips and curves
Doesn’t mean I think bigger is better
Just because I’m overweight
Doesn’t mean all big clothes fit me
Doesn’t mean all I do is eat
Doesn’t mean I look like plus size models
Just because I’m overweight.
Do I have to look a certain way to be overweight?
Do I have to fit in plus size clothes?
Do people have to be shamed for their weight?
No. We don’t.

I was inspired to write this work because i do not look much overweight, but I know I am. But is doesn't really matter.
