Growing up in a "skinny girl" society is tough when you are not considered part of the norm. I come from a culture, that if you feel like the child hasn't gotten enough to eat, you will get forced fed until your stuffed.... I guess that's probably just my family but yeah lol
I have always been "chunky" or "big boned" (WTF is big boned lmaooo now they call it Thick... Either way Labels Suck Balls) like i was called growing up and always felt different or the odd one around family & friends. Due to them always pointing out I was the heavier one, i became super self conscious and started to suffer from body dysmorphia.
In High school I started going to the bathroom after lunch to regurgitate my food just to fit in with the other girls. I tried starving myself too, but at the end when my anxiety/ depression hit, I turned to my Love... FOOD!! Lol PS: I stopped my bulimic tendencies when my mom caught me, thought I was pregnant, found out I wasn't then scolded me to the point of no return
I became to accept myself just a couple years back now... Right before I turned 30, One day I started to stare in the mirror and told myself... Shit I'm fucking Beautiful!!! I don't have the body that is the "Norm" to society but my face is priceless!!! Some skinny girls or women in general have amazing bodies but some of them are Butt-a-faces & would kill for some of my features.... Everyone is beautiful in my eyes tho I'm just stating my Opinion
Now after joining SG community I feel at home!! Proud to be in a place where we lift eachother up.. Everyone here makes eachother feel great, beautiful, and confident!!! Is such a beautiful thing! @nanette Thanks for that thread last night!!! You inspired me to share this blog today!! Just wanted to share a little bit about myself!
