Tina Fey recently said that she won't talk crap about her own body in front of her daughters because she doesn't want to set a bad example. I wonder if my mom did the same thing, but now that I've grown up, she no longer has to maintain the illusion.

I keep my weight loss surgery a secret, because as much as being fat is stigmatized, losing weight "the easy way" is too.

ashley madison
