@josiebalka: Posting part 1 of this poem back in October has changed my life, and I will never be able to thank you enough for hearing my words and feeling them with me. I love you i honestly do. The track is by Ramol but paced differently ❤️ #fyp #poetry #bodypositivity
“I’ve been scared to meet people, in case I’m not as small as they expect” - yes, this! Even as a guy, I feel this too.

And when you finally are small, but you’ve hyper focused on being small for your entire life you don’t know how to exist small. You somehow feel bigger and feel less at the same time.

Also seeing the comment section and knowing so many people feel the same is both heartbreaking and makes me feel less alone at the same time

Crying. The other day after losing ~95lbs, I realised I will never be happy, the weight isn’t the problem, my perception is and changing that is even harder than the weight loss ever was..
