*I posted this on my Facebook page yesterday & still can’t get the ‘Yes!! This!!’ sentiment out of my head.

  2. I rock the technology 🙂 Posted from phone and am getting emails saying you can’t comment…that the comments are wonky…but this looks ok to me?

  5. For me sharing my struggle is a large piece of being and staying healthy.

    Was this quote about fitness?

    I don’t know the magazine.

    • thumbtyping so excuse the anticipated misspelling 😉 but INC is about businesss and the quote was about small biz/entrepreneurs.

      Interesting huh?

  7. As soon as I saw it on your FB, I immediately shared…and have gotten comments and shares from unexpected places, like a guy with whom I went to high school who wrote: “I wish I knew that in High School. I thought I was the only person in the world with a screwed up family life…”

    • that’s so powerful Karen. And 99% of the reason why I want to get back to writing tween fiction….
      Sounds crazy but it’ what pulls me there.

      • THIS picture and the words with it have been swimming in my head since you posted it on facebook. I am thinking big things…I am being pulled in a direction to do MORE to help struggling, at-risk teenage girls.

  10. I felt the same YES. THIS! when you posted on FB, Miz! It’s exactly when I share what I do on my blog, especially recently with respect to my emotional eating struggles.

    Thank you for THIS! 🙂

  12. Love it. It’s so true. One of the biggest lessons I’ve learned through blogging is that our struggles are universal. We are not alone.

  15. I appreciate the point about being open about one’s struggles. That said, I think the quote would have worked just as well had Ms Hunt left out the word “fat”. The association of “fat” with “loser” does not resonate with me at all.

  19. YES, I thought about that word “fat” but I love the quote & especially since I have been sharing the hormone stage stuff with people & so many women feel they can’t share or talk about that too AND it is such a DIFFICULT time in a woman’s life – so many changes in the bod & emotions!

    So sorry I missed you this trip & hope we get a chance again!
