Dear Loved One, I’m Sorry for My Fatness

I thought it was just me. It’s never just me.

A friend of mine sent me a message last night saying that she has gained weight and is larger than the last time we saw her. It was a warning, an apology of sorts, getting ahead of the shock we might feel. We “might not even recognize her” when we see her this weekend for the first time in several years.
