Hi, thank you for this.

There are some parts I've avoided but will definitely read later. Your self-love is truly something to see and I hope that never leaves you.

Also, God when πŸ™ŒπŸΏ

Hello, Dolapo. This was a very lovely and uncomfortable article for me to read - uncomfortable because it forced me to do some personal introspection, after which I realised that, as much I like to be conscious of my words, thoughts, actions and inactions, I still subconsciously struggle to separate prongs one from the second. I cut myself some slack by reminding myself that this unlearning thing is a lifelong journey and not a one time thing.

I have attached a link to one of my favorite articles about the factors that contribute to obesity that I believe you'll find interesting, and would have helped expand a point you were trying to make earlier on BMI compositions. https://getpocket.com/explore/item/the-obesity-era

PS: I also think you're hot af.

Hope you enjoy the rest of your day.
