Give Me a Break!!!
| Thu, 03-25-2004 - 7:52am |
One of my very small friends (she wears a size extra small) got very upset with me yesterday. She has been saying that she is fat and needs to loose weight for atleast a year now (come on, she's a size XS and I have over 100lbs to loose, don't talk to me about fat!). Well, she told me yesterday that she has lost 13lbs, and I said "Where could you have possibly had an extra 13 lbs?" then I said "No, I'm happy for you." then I teased her a little again saying things like "I wish I were as fat as you are". I know it was insensative of me to down play her acheivement, but isn't it insensative of her to parade her tiny little butt in front of me and holler that she is fat at the same time? Anyway she is very upset with me now.

I'll be the first to admit that sometimes its hard to have a "skinny" best friend.
I hesitate at posting this, and I'm sorry I did, because I have never been over 200 pounds and I guess I can't relate.
I think my point is that I am still not happy with my body, probably never will be and here's a point of view from the other side.
if you haven't been over 200 and it would seem that you are at a smaller size, perhaps you can share why you have decided to come hang out with us? i haven't heard yet why and i am curious to know your story. :)
Yea, everyone has a story of some kind =)
