Does this brace make my ankle look fat?
Most people have insecurities of some sort. For many women it is their body image. They are constantly asking if something makes them look fat, or if they have too big this or too small that. For me, I haven't had a body image issue since my sophomore year of high school, and have been hard pressed to let my insecurities show.
A little over two weeks ago, I sprained my ankle. It still doesn't feel good, yet I am on the soccer team and want to play. It took me a full twenty minutes to run two miles on Tuesday. I don't think it has taken me that long since middle school. Insecurities that I have managed to elude for years are surfacing as I fear getting hurt again, or worse not even being allowed to play. I pity the people who are always wondering why they aren't good enough, because I have experienced it and it makes for a miserable day.

Nothing ever makes you look fat. I'm not sure anything could. Except maybe a fat-suit. Or maybe one of those funky carnival mirrors.
My ankle looks very fat though. They put an inch of tape on it then tell me to wear the brace too. It is HUGE!
