STOP SAYING THAT WE ARE SKINNY!
Posted on Wednesday, 25 August 2010 @ 05:34
I just attended self-consoling class ㅅ-ㅅ
Alright.
I was stressed over my skinny body again just now.
(Yeah, I stress over it every single day. Trust me.)
And I was curious and just went to Google.
And guess what!
I came across this person's blog and I really have to agree to what she was talking.
And after reading the comments on her blog, I found out I'm actually not the only skinny one here. Why do I feel so? It's because of some of those people out there are always commenting on our size like we are the only skinny people around and staring at us like we are aliens or some people suffering from Anorexia.

Parts of the blog post:
The thing is, I’m so sick and tired of people commenting on how skinny I am! I know many people mean it as a compliment but it’s worn rather thin**, really. Most of the time, I hate the envious / demeaning / accusative tone in their voice when they go “OMG but you’re TIIIIIINY! You’re a stick. Do you ever eat? ”
If I went around saying to someone “Geez you’re FAT! You’ve definitely put on weight. You should cut down on all those French fries. You must sign up for the gym” I’d be labeled rude, tactless, discriminating.
Stop telling us to eat more! We already do, thank you very much. And looking from an economic angle, all that grocery is costly! Granted we can enjoy whatever food we like. But having to eat 5 times a day so one doesn’t look like a walking skeleton in 2 weeks is NOT EASY.
Some comments to the blog post:
'hey thaks sis for standing up for that subject i mean im skinny and people tell me that all the time and yur right they may not mean it n a bad way but after awhile it gets on my nerves i feel like i have to be fat to be peoples friend i mean i eat alot'
'i’m 5,5 and i weigh like 95 lbs….22 years old….and i still hate my body, i hate how people stare at me and think they can just walk up to me and tell me that im skinny…..as if that is a normal thing to do…as if i would walk up to a girl and say…hey your teeth are ugly….as if she doesnt know….damn people are so ignorant…i just wanna kick the shit outta them for being that shallow'

So yeah!
Please stop coming to us and say that 'You are so skinny~' , 'You need to eat more~', 'Your legs are like stick'.
Even though you may be concerned about me and care for me.
I know that I am skinny and I eat MORE than you.
I'm not saying that you can't ask skinny people to eat more because you care for them.
It's just that you don't have to keep on commenting on our sizes. It gets annoying. Especially when you are not the only one commenting on our sizes.
Those comments you made makes us feel even more sensitive over our weight issues.
And people who stare at us in disbelief or disgust, please don't do that because you guys are stepping over our confidence.
I'm starting to restrict the things I like to wear because I'm beginning to get too sensitive over my weight issue.
And to those who says 'I admire your size. I'm like so fat~'
We are actually feeling the same way as you feel.
'i think it's a double edged sword. You would be happy to be in the position of one who is thin, however, someone who is thin would love to be in the position of one with weight (though not obese).
I often have friends tell me how much they would love to be my size, and it literally angers me. I understand they're desire to lose weight, but to be my size is just a little careless. '

I read from this person that protein bars helped her to gain about 6kg in a month.
I was so happy for her! >_<
Does anyone know where I can get protein bars?~
Pleaaase?
I want to gain 6 kg too~ :P
Thank you ㅅ-ㅅ
Peace (:
