I've held onto this memory for years, but it's time to let it go. Back in high school, I was walking to my car in the parking lot my senior year and standing nearby was a group of boys. They were laughing, and one of them said, “Dude, she's got so many rolls, I can't tell which is her tits, and which is her big ole belly.”

They knew I could hear. They didn't care.

Those words lived rent free in my head for years. They shaped how I saw myself, how I dressed, how I moved through the world. I let those thoughtless boys define my worth.

But you know what? I'm done with that. Seeing women like @KelseyBest and @BestiesBestie share their journeys, their struggles, and their triumphs... it's awakened something in me.

I'm not saying I'm 100% confident now. I'm not saying I love every inch of my body every day. But I'm working on it. I'm learning to appreciate my body for what it can do, not just how it looks. I'm learning that my worth isn't determined by some random, stupid boys from high school.

This journey isn't easy, but it's worth it. And I'm not alone. We're all in this together.
