    I went ziplining!



    Don't worry about hurting my feelings because I guarantee you not one bit of my self esteem is tied up in your acceptance.

    My guess would be to do something you haven't either ever been able to do or just weren't able to do the entire time you were big. What that entails is up to you and your interests. If it's as simple as fitting in some calf-length boots and strutting down the sidewalk then so be it.

    All those are great! Idk if it's just me but I still kind of have a phobia of trying new things I couldn't do before (zip lining and amusement park rides) because I still kind of think in the back of my mind I might not fit and I don't want to be embarrassed.

    I did things I couldn't do before. I went to Victoria's Secret and raided it. I also went and tried on every pair of boots I liked. And they all zipped up. Spent a LOT of money on me. But after all the hard work we've put in, we deserve it!! And we deserve fabulous boots!!



    You don’t have to be perfect. You just need to be better.
