So to me, fat just seems to be right to the point and the most descriptive way to say it.

One of my earliest memories is of my father carrying me in one arm with a picket sign in the other.

I think the play actually became bigger than me. No pun intended.

Years ago women of my size were considered royalty.

Nobody else knew what to do with me because big women are old

Instead of hating, I have chosen to forgive and spend all of my positive energy on changing the world.

I was scared, because I knew that in the political arena, you have to satisfy so many different types of people at once, and I wasn't sure that I could speak for everybody and be politically correct.
