I've never felt akward or unwanted posting anywhere on this forum, and I understand that was not the intent of this thread, but I can't help but feel that now that I've reached a place where I am comfortable, perhaps I should refrain from posting in the TDC?


I hope you don't, Nat. The point was (and still is) that not everyone who thinks they understand what it's like to be very large CAN unless they've been there themselves.

For me, this issue is like going into the Addictions subforum and giving my opinions on the experiences of alcoholism when I've had 10 margaritas in 19 years. Or posting in the PCOS or Thyroid groups when I really don't know what those folks go through. I can read, I can sympathize, I can learn and offer support - but I don't ever want to assume I know when I can't.

Please don't feel uncomfortable because I needed to process this issue.
