There's this movement in America among the obese to take pride in being plus size or "curvy" and it worries me. Now I'm not for bulling or teasing but it so unhealthy to be fat. It should be looked at the same way as smoking or drug addiction. No one should except being obese as "it's who I am." It's more then being different it's self destructive. Taking pride in it is denial. You said your losing weight and I wish you the best with that. Know you have the power to change and you will.

[ProjectLifesize]

The problem is that people think it's not okay to feel good and worthy unless they're thin. We understand the impact of obesity. Believe me. Not everyone's journey is the same. Not every body should look the same either. Basically, it boils down to the fact that we are ALL working on ourselves in some capacity. And we're gonna be ourselves, and not be ashamed to be ourselves in the process.

did I mention that I love you?

[ProjectLifesize]

you may have. It's been too long. We should do what best friends do and hang out sometime.

[ProjectLifesize]

Fuck those turds. You're beautiful, smart, and talented. But you knew that already. : )

Those people calling you ugly are ugly on the inside and that's the worst kind of ugly.

Hi Megan, WHAT a beautiful channel you have created, what a wonderful thing you are doing!! I love it =) My best friend and I recently started a channel, Fueled With Passion, where we talk about things that matter, like self-confidence! We would love to talk with you or possibly collaborate, if you're interested!

Thank you for what you do! You are BEAUTIFUL!!

you are my hero!!!

@RallySelf It is a common miss-conception that being overweight automatically makes you unhealthy. Now I know people of all shapes and sizes and I have noticed that being thin doesn't make you healthy and being overweight does not make you unhealthy. I have seen very athletic health conscious people die of a heart attack at a young age. I have also met some very overweight people who regularly visit there doctor and are told that they are in very good health.

@ElectraOmega RESPECT! OMG, I have problems losing the 30-50 pounds I need to lose and here you are who has lost tenfold of that. That must have been quite the journey. You deserve nothing less than utmost respect for your determination and strength to achieve this goal.

@RallySelf I understand you are not obese, otherwise you would not say such an obscene and misguided thing... Think of it more as like Multiple Schlorosis, Asbergers, or anything else which is genetically predetermined.

I know some people who experience chronic depression... Do you suggest they 'just get happy'? Nobody said they were doing nothing about their weight, but simply ACCEPTED what they have to work with in terms of the genetic cards they were dealt.

Growing up I was one of those stick thin girls. As soon as I hit about 8 years old i started experiencing severe depression, anxiety, and weight gain. In about a year I went from super skinny to going on one of the fattest kids in my class. My bipolar symptoms and weight gain hit at the same time-No one can really tell me why. Since then I've dieted, exercised, starved myself and popped pills. I try harder than any thin person I know and still have to listen to the horrible things ppl say to me

[honeypeanuts300]

oooomg i hate haters they are so stupid because they are blind if they think you are ugly your beautiful and so are all the other girls on project life size :)

really inspiring

@ProjectLifesize

I just wish this channels focus would be more about life changes and healthy living. From what I've seen of the girls on this site We're not talking about a few vanity pounds but the morbidly obese who will die from there weight. I saw you have weekly challenges, well I challenge you to reach a healthy weight. With hard work and the inner strength I know you have this could be done in a year. You inspire a lot of people on here inspire them to save there lives.
