First of all, I will provide my readers that does not exist yet and who doesn't know me (since this is my very first post) few answers about supposed questions they might want to know about me someday.
1)What is this blog about and who are you?
-This blog is about me, my life and the difficulties that I have to face because of my tendency to be overweight. It includes issues like: being comfortable with my appearance, having a healthy lifestyle, dealing with prejudice from others, trying to fit into the society pattern, til being accepted by myself and partner. I am not so big nowadays, due my efforts on keeping my weight stabilized since very young. But I do have hard times and put some weight on sometimes. Definitely, that causes me a desperate sensation. I have already been obese, so, I can say it does not feel good or easy at all. That is why I can't just accept the condition of being fat. I am a girl who probably was born to be fat, maybe obese, but who decided to struggle against this "heavy" problem as long as life allow me to. Everyone can call me Nat, and I won't say much about my personal and daily life, because it doesn't matter which my full name is, I will feel that I did a good job once I see that I could pass my message along, so that is my goal with this blog.
2)So, are you an anonymous writer?
-Not really. I am not creating any fake information about me. Actually I am omitting more details because I don't like to expose my difficulties in web, once I know that I am kind of sensitive to haters and what they might say towards me, besides that, I know there are lots of mean people over the world and I have to protect myself from this situation, otherwise, I would get very sad and depressed.
3)If you are not good dealing with haters on internet, why are you creating a blog?
-Because I love putting on words what I feel and it can be helpful having people who understand me to read what I want to say, and share any kind of good advice with me so that it can make me feel stronger, plus, shows me that there are people who cares about someone like me.
4)Why did you decided to write? Would not it be easier to talk with a close friend? and Why do you sound like a non english speaker most all the time?
First, I am writing because I always liked to write, actually I am a very talkative person, but on the other hand, talking about this subject makes me feel shy and not so self confident. It gets even worse when I talk about this with friends, because, since they are not in my shoes sometimes they criticize and cannot give me any helping word. It feels like I am admitting my weakness and showing my vulnerable side which I know very well but I do not want nobody else to get to know because I am afraid of somebody uses these issues to hurt or disappoint me. Also, it is way easier to be totally honest writing than talking, once you have no idea who is going to read it later.
Second, I do not sound like an english native because, actually, I am not. I am brazilian and my home language is portuguese. I decided to write in english since I thought I could reach a larger target and find more people who identify with the things I have been through.
5)If you want to be read and heard why are you not letting your friends, who are portuguese speakers, know about this blog?
Well, I will probably let some of them know eventually. I do believe that, even in case of they can't speak english, if they really want to read it, they will give it a little bit of effort to translate whatever I write just to be into why I am saying. Its more like: If you care enough about what I am writing you can go online and translate my posts. It is not too much, right? But if any of them is not interested just ignore it and do not piss me with bad comments. I think it´s easier to go through bad comments when it is a stranger who is saying that to you. It feels like: "I don't give a shit about what this person says about me, they do not know me".
6)And for last, is this going to be only about hard times and struggles? isn't it too negative?
Not all. It is going to be about me being happy besides being mostly on a eternal diet. Life doesn't have to be easy to be good. :)
So, probably this is enough to make clear what this blog is about.
Hopefully, I will be able to reach readers who can be inspired by me and who inspires me as well.
I guess being helpful is more rewarding than being helped.
I apologize in advance for my spelling mistakes.
In the beginning this blog will be kind of simple, looking more like a diary, but I will try to make it look better over the time.
Sincerely,
Nat :)
