To the fat people —

It’s ok to be fat. You haven’t done anything wrong.

You deserve to have a life where you can feel proud and happy.

And I just want you to know that you are as worthy of love and friendship and care as anyone else.

I want you to know that thin people aren’t better than you. That being fat is not a moral failing.

That fat is just a size, just like thin is just a size.

I want you to know that the people who make you feel bad about your size are wrong. There’s nothing inherently wrong about being bigger.

I know that it’s hard. But I know you can be strong and I believe in you.

It’s ok to be fat. You haven’t done anything wrong.
