      Dear Twitter, I know that I'm fat. I see it every day in the mirror, and I feel it when I play sports or settle into an airplane seat. It's not my favorite feature. But it's your favorite feature. I read about it a lot here. 1/2

      I'm going to do something about it. Not for you, but for me - and for my family. I'd like you to do something in return: stop turning your disagreements with people into personal invective. And maybe cheer me along as I drop some pounds. I'll post updates.

          Do it for you and fuck everyone else. I always say that what others think of me is none of my business. Its very empowering. Keep telling yourself that.

          Good luck Jonathan. The struggle is real, with the weight and with the rude people, but sounds like you're off to a good start.
