One of the lady's on the Sparkling Vixen team asked us to post what makes us afraid to lose weight and I have been pondering it all night while I work. I think that my big fear is having guys think they can get close to me because I am thinner. And as much as I hate to admit it I really am afraid that guys will try to take advantage of me if I am thinner. I also know in reality that I am a very strong person and I really should not be afraid of getting thin. I know that I have to tools to take care of myself. When I was eleven I did not have the knowledge that I have now and no man is ever going to abuse me again.
