If you're a large woman in America, your whole life us an opportunity to feel self-conscious,embarrassed, resentful and way too big. you can hide in the corner or in the couch, you can go to therapy, or you can put on your lycra bike shorts and get out there and move.

I'm not as strong as I thought

Okay, I just went to the gym to find out if I could bench press 120 lbs, and the answer is: no. So much for that idea...

Yeah, but I bet that you could press at least twice that with your legs... Upper body strength is nice, but it ain't everything!

You rock. You ARE an athlete. You WILL do that darn marathon in under 8 hours.

We don't say it near often enough, but some of us are outrageously proud of you!!!

GO VJ! GO VJ!

Love and kisses,
an admirer
