Dear Erik,
I am a fat oman I am
5 foot 4 inche and t my 1 t
wei ting I s well over 175
lbs. I know that I am a big
oman and I don't h ve any
regret h t ever. I don't
plan on dropping any pound
cau I am h ppy and he lthy.
The only problem i dealing
ith men. Some of them
don't know how to deal with a
real woman like me. I have
. been on blind date and there
h ve been time when they have
ju left me in the middle of
our date. I ju don't kno
h t to do about men.
I go out for a walk near the
par. I am always hoping that
I will run into or meet a nice
guy. For m re son no one
want to kno the real me,
on! the part of me that is
pretty to look at.
