Okay. I am 5’5, I weigh 105 pounds on average, and I am naturally very petite. I am tired of people thinking that they can just call my “tiny”, “anorexic”, or “itty bitty”. You don’t have to point it out. I KNOW! I am tired of people telling me to gain weight. People being random strangers, professors, and friends. I AM TRYING! I love food! I’m not starving, I promise. I can’t change the way I am…I have been muscle building and eating plenty of that food pyramid crap you are forced to learn in high school. I don’t know what else to do. This is just me and again, I CAN’T CHANGE IT.

Last night I had a coworker and customer gang up on me, calling me different names and I just took it. I expressed that I didn’t like it, but they just continued name calling. I never once mentioned their weight. (which was 2XL and 3XL type) I just can’t take it. I don’t tell people “hey you need to eat less”, “hey, you barely fit in that car, maybe you should walk” , or “hey, i really don’t want you to sit next to me on a bus for 8 hours because I feel crowded”. NO! THAT WOULD BE MESSED UP! People who are overweight know their condition and they deserved to be treated like people.

I have heard so many rude things about weight and it upsets me so much! I sat in my bathroom last night and cried right before my boyfriend came home because of the awful things my co worker and that customer said. WORDS HURT. Just saying.
