My name is Bertha. I am a BBW. I am 5' 6" and weigh 350 pounds. I am
nothing like the fat people that people see everyday. I exercise for at
least an hour everyday. I am a very light eater. All of my thin friends
never exercise and eat at least 5,000 calories per day. For breakfast, I
have half a piece of dry wheat toast. For lunch, usually two or three
grapes. At dinnertime, I usually will have a small, skinless chicken
breast, a tablespoon of wild rice, and about half a cup of steamed
vegetables. I never eat dessert or doughnuts. I have the best fiance in
the world. He is the CEO of a Fortune 500 company. He is around 6' 2"
and
a very muscular 185 pounds. He can have his choice of any woman, but he
chose me. While in the Harvard MBA program, he used to model for GQ.
When
I walk in a room, very handsome men will stop talking with all of their
beautiful HWP female companions and crowd around me to vie for my
attention. I have at least 6 Brad Pitt lookalikes make passes at me
everyday, sometimes even in front of their Catherine Zeta-Jones lookalike
girlfriends. I have a wonderful job and make six figures per year.

I am a T2 diabetic. I am sure that I am fat because of diabetes, not the
other way around. My metabolism was wrecked by dieting. I had my
gallbladder removed recently. I suffer from knee pain and have rashes in
my skinfolds. Contrary to what is said about fat people being prone to
disease, I am in perfect health.

I have been lurking here for a long time and my story is typical. The
lives of fat acceptors are great. Can someone remind me why we need a fat
acceptance newsgroup?

Bertha

I am a SSBBW too! Our experiences are amazingly alike. My thin friends are
amazed at how little I eat, which is around 800 calories per day. When we
go out to a nightclub together, the men hit up on me and ignore my thin
friends. I am engaged to a very handsome man who makes 6 figures per year
at a very prestigious law firm. He's an underwear model part time.

Nice to meet you, Bertha!

For the same reason that idiots have hemorrhoid. The two could change
places and no one would notice.

Loose 150 pounds-shoot a troll.

Just a polite remeinder Lady Veteran. You just posted a weight loss
message and THAT is off charter for SSFA.

The Moderator

Sadly, the OP crossposted this message, including alt.support.diet,
alt.support.diet.lowcarb and alt.support.diet.weightwatchers. Diet
posts are NOT off charter for those groups.

If the original poster ([email hidden] (Bertha) ) did not
want to stir up controversy or offend people, then she should not have
posted to those groups as well as the fat acceptance groups. At the
very least, she could have posted separately, one to each set of
groups, if she REALLY felt it was an important message for both
fat-acceptance people AND those trying to manage their weight through
diet and exercise modification.

Interestingly, while most of them will sing the praises of remailers,
they violate the terms and purposes of them. This freedom to troll
appears to have a built-in destruct as they [censored] each level of access
available to them. Newsreaders built in filters, newsservices started
filtering, mail2news gateways started blocking, and reamilers are getting
tired of it.

Their common argument is that are afraid of being netkkopped. If they
were not so busy trying harass and hurt they would never be
netkkopped in the first place. Their existence belies the use for
remailers in the first place. they were designed to protect people
trying to communicate at risk of death.

I have a destination block on all the email addressed I use. I
suggest you do the same.
