Why? Bodyshaming hurts women no matter if it’s “too fat” or “too skinny”. I highly doubt OP hates me for being bullied as a child. I had an eating disorder what was I supposed to do?

lol I don’t hate you. I had a friend who struggled to gain weight, as well as a sister who is the same. But, my friend is due to gastric paralysis. I actually also used to have an ED. Hope you’re well recovered

Yes! And while a lot came from my school, it also came from my sister(s) and my cousin who, when I asked to take my picture, said “who wants a picture of a whale” and it constantly replays in my head

I’m the same! I’m currently attempting to lose weight (hard now that I am disabled tbh) because as the bullying continued it was like a self fullfilling prophecy. I weight 220lbs now :( trying to get back down to 160. But yeah. I used to worry they’d come steal me and put me on “my 600lb life”

I am thankfully! I had this idea that if I ate less my parents wouldn’t have to spend as much money on me and it spiraled. I can listen to my body much better now as an adult. Hope you have had a good recovery as well!

I do think that stigmatism for one is more widespread than the other, but I am sorry you had to go through that. It’s like how people always say if I lose weight my chest will shrink but it never does. It’s just how the body decides it wants to distribute and reduce fat

It really is! Like I was a cute kid?? I also got bullied because I didn’t dress country as well which probably didn’t help 🫠

It is a day to day thing! I was always just tryna lose the weight. Really should be a class in highschool or middle school on how to have healthy relationships with food, just like how sex ed should be a class

Agreed. It is understated how much your genetics and things out of your control play into your weight, height, etc. Like my best friend in high school changed medications and gained 50 pounds in half of a year. People switched up on her because she wasn’t “skinny” anymore. It was insane like that’s a child still

I was so skinny and so unhappy in all my photos. It never would’ve bothered me if I wasn’t bullied for it. I’m so much happier now in my weight but I used to be close to a ED (trying to eat whenever possible to gain weight) disordered eating is SO common and it’s just awful that we all went through this in some way.

I totally agree! Both my parents (especially my mum) have to work very hard with strict diets to keep a decent weight as well. My sister eats nothing but junk and stays stick thin. Bodies are so odd!

I am super happy that you didn’t develop one! Disordered eating is def rampant and isn’t talked about as deeply as it should be

Oh I definitely had disordered eating. I’m doing much better now! I’ve even taught/ explained it to a lot of my foreign friends- Japanese. It’s so common over there and I’ve tried to reassure them. I know I can’t do everything but hopefully in my profession I can help some girls and women learn to love themselves.

That’s so nice that you’re trying to help! Japanese beauty standards are just as bad (honestly, maybe worse) so sadly I’m not surprised they have food relationship isssues there as well. We should all just want people to be their best balance of happy and healthy 🙂‍↕️
