The Public’s Reaction
As Claire’s transformation became more apparent, people outside their circle also took notice. Social media posts from old acquaintances and even strangers praised Claire for her determination. They marveled at her discipline and commitment. But beneath the praise was an undertone that unsettled Claire: the assumption that her worth had increased because she was now slimmer. This bothered her deeply. She had always been worthy, regardless of her size, and she didn’t want to be reduced to her body.
