Description
Mine is a journey that has taught me that fat is neither about lack of willpower nor lack of self-discipline. Fat is about issues of anger, self-esteem, families and the messages we all internalize about our own bodies. Being overweight is about loneliness, emptiness, and voids that we try to fill with food. Being fat is the price we pay for failure to live up to impossible, unattainable, and unreasonable standards that someone else has set for us.
I was born an underweight, premature infant to Italian parents. Reared in a family that associated food with love, I was fed without limits in order to gain the weight that would satisfy my parents' concept of an appropriately robust child.
It was this misguided situation, coupled with experiences of sexual abuse, which set the stage for what would be many years of emotional and physical conflict. My childhood and adolescence years were shaped by ever-escalating weight gains from the constant diet pills and programs. As I approached my 18th birthday, I weighed well over 400 pounds. Depression, anxiety, recurring panic attacks and the inability to work led me to seek treatment with a psychologist.
