Listen Up.

[sweeteaa]

Okay. Listen up.
Do you think your too fat, too skinny, or ugly?
I, to be honest sometimes think that.
And it makes me feel bad because other people are skinny to do gymnastics and they can also be super-flexible.

But I remind myself:
I'm not alone.

Here's a little story about me and my weight. And to be way honest, I just figured out my weight and I'm not happy, at all.

Here is the average weight of a 10-year-old girl, which my mom wants me to be like. I'm 13 though:

Guess how much I am supposed to weigh? 72 pounds.
How much do I weigh? 116.4 pounds.

That's why I'm not happy. And so were the bullies in Kindergarten.

It was just the first day of school, and suddenly, these girls start cursing at me, kicking me, punching me and shipping me with people I hated. Which was really annoying, to be honest.

And that went on too the last 3 days of school.

-

Not a lot right? Being made fun of culture, race, sexualities, weights, heights and beauty is more though. And it's not okay to let it go with the flow.
So be proud of you are, okay? If you have cancer, if you're gay, if you're lesbian, black or white, Muslim, Christian or Jewish, still be proud of who you are.
Because that's all that matters right now.
Being you.


Hope this was as inspiring as anything! Please check out others' threads like this just how you're checking out mine.

Thank you! I kinda get down when I see other girls who are literally sticks (I'm under the 72 mark so IDK why), and don't get me started on the "Short" jokes...(Half my friends are really tall) but seeing this makes me a little more confidant..(oh don't worry 'bout the shipping..they'll get bored and get a new OTP...trust me..)

Look babe, I'm underweight and I'll tell you what, it isn't fun. I would much rather be curvy then look in the mirror and see my spine and ribs so clearly. It's disgusting to me, but just because we may not be the right weight, doesn't mean we aren't beautiful. Ignore those girls, you are a queen. Girls are judgemental little monsters who just wanna make people cry. All that matters is that you know that you are beautiful and strong.

You are so brave for sharing this, but if your mom wants you to be the average weight of a 10 year old girl while you're 13 that's crazy and you shouldn't listen to her.

Thank you so much for the tips.

Agreed. But I think all she wants is for me to stay healthy, lately I've been eating a lot.
