Us fatties can do nothing right. For heavens sake exercise! For heavens sake don't exercise! You've nailed it here. I exercise to try and strengthen my knackered knees, the worst thing I could do to improve them is to ignore the issue and sit on my bum all the time.

Exactly. I think their preference is for us to just to be completely invisible.

You look beautiful in the black and white dress! Thank you for such positive refreshing perspective. I believe that many of the horrid internet comments are written by bots and they are just pieces of code churned out, not linked to any one person. For me it makes it seem less heinous if I think of it as a piece of computer code, not an actual thought that an actual person took time to write. I think the internet is riddled with this kind of malicious bot activity just trying to cause strife. So ignore them all! You are human and they are just snippets of code!

Thank you, they may well be - and either way, they’re not real life people in my world thank goodness!

Really funny and so, so true, especially all the medical experts out there. I’m 65 so I’m pretty invisible, even when running, but a park keeper shouted something incoherent but rude at me last week. You look gorgeous, why would you listen to these morons?

Oh how rude of them! I think some people are weirdly irritated by runners. And thank you, I haven’t taken any of it to heart, I’m thankfully old and confident enough to mostly just use it for content!
