I can't please everyone. I am trying not to let the pressure consume me.

The notion that I should be fine with the status quo even if I am not wholly affected by the status quo is repulsive.

When you can’t find someone to follow, you have to find a way to lead by example.

I thought a lot about how so many memoirs about fatness focus on weight loss; they don't focus on living with weight in a world that is rather inhospitable to it. So I knew that was the idea that was going to be most interesting and most challenging, and I like to be challenged as a writer.
