It was just after fencing in the school changing room.
I had taken off my shirt and I looked at myself in the big mirror on the wall.
I took a deep breath and for the first time in my life...
I felt satisfied with how my body looks.
I had put on a little bit of weight this semester.
Not as much as I had wanted, but it was okay.
I was happy with the way I looked.
Around me were guys with really nice bodies, tone from much training in all sorts of physical activities. I had none of their chiseled frames or tanned skin or steel abs.
But I was contented.
And that felt rather liberating.
