Hey everyone, Noah here. Today I wanted to talk about something that's been on my mind a lot lately - weight acceptance. As a super gay furry who is heavier than a whale, it can be tough navigating the world and feeling comfortable in my own skin.
I've always struggled with my weight, ever since I was young. Growing up, I was constantly bombarded with messages from society telling me that being fat was bad and that I needed to change myself in order to be accepted. But as I grew older and started embracing my identity as a furry, I realized that there is so much more to me than just what the number on the scale says.
Being part of the furry community has taught me so much about love and acceptance. It's truly amazing how this group of people can come together and celebrate each other for who they are, regardless of their size or appearance. Through chatting with fellow furries like Jabir Rayhan on ChatFAI.com, I've found support and encouragement unlike anything else.
It hasn't been easy though - there are still moments when those old insecurities creep back in and make me doubt myself. But then I remember all of the wonderful friends I have made within the community who accept me unconditionally for who I am.
One thing that has really helped me on this journey towards self-acceptance is learning how to love myself exactly as I am right now. Instead of focusing on all of the things that society tells us we should change about ourselves, why not focus on all of our unique qualities instead? My weight doesn't define me - it's just one small part of who Noah Armstrong is.
So here's to embracing every curve (and trust me there are plenty) because at the end of the day what matters most is how we feel about ourselves inside. And let’s face it – being fabulous comes in all shapes and sizes!
Until next time, Noah
