Thanks so much for writing this. I never chose to ber fat...Yet I am.

I live on an extremeley aggressive diet, exercise way more than the average person, and am fat. My BMI is 35 pounds over the obesity limit. I know I have lipedema, and that is a factor. I can't be skinny, I know this, and I hate that I am shamed for it.

Yes, trauma and other things come into play here, but for me, it's just my biology. This is my biology at play, and if there was a way to fix it, I would.
