I think nice people rule. Or maybe people who are comfortable with who they are. I'm not sure it's easy to be either extreme whether large or thin. I'm 6'3" and weigh 145lbs at this moment. I can't gain weight to save my life, and whenever I'm around somebody they act like I have anorexia. I remember growing up and being punished for not being able to finish my food (my parents would try giving me very large portions) or having friends constantly go um... why don't you eat something? When I do eat... I just have a rapid metabolism (I've tried eating more and consequently lose weight... what?). Honestly it's not that cool to be this thin any more than being large would be. I'm constantly told that I'm too thin not to mention I don't have the toughest looking exterior... so it's not like I'm a dire chick magnet (Nice face though :)). Also being thin can suck in the energy department. I'm pretty tired most of the time... and get exhausted while doing much anything physical. Society may want thin but I think there's a point of thin that becomes border-line screwed up and I crossed it. I'm not thin to the extent of looking like a walking corpse but I'm fairly close. I have to wear baggy clothing just to feel like I look near normal, but still it sucks to feel like your ribs are painfully constricting when you breath or feeling too frail to be conscious at times.

Anyway the truth of the word would be tyrants rule... but whatever. I'm fine not ruling and being myself :)


You remind me of my little brother, he's quite tall for his age (he's 10 but about 5 ft) but he's extremely thin. He wouldn't look out of place on one of those children's charity ads, yet he eats like a pig and has a large appetite! One of his friends is obese so when they stand together the difference between them is comical, his friend is like 3 of my brother stuck together.
Hopefully he should build up a some muscle mass as he enters his teenage years, but our family has a history of very slim men.

I want you to start tying to improve yourself instead of playing the victim.


Why do you think I'm losing weight for? That's an improvement. D:


Geeze, I feel like I'm getting attacked here.


Nobody here attacked you. Acknowledge the effort you are putting forth instead of constantly reminding everyone on here that you're fat. Be happy that you are eating as healthy as you can right now and are exercising.

Your poor me attitude is really tiresome. None of us are here to play along with it. If you don't want complete honesty, don't talk about your problems on here.

I haven't done it constantly, it's just been on the forefront of my mind the past few days when s**t hit the fan. Most of the time I'm positive and almost sickeningly sweet on here. I was having a rough week, that's all. :/

I said I felt like I was being attacked because I was being criticized for my opinion based on my experience in several threads at the same time and defending myself on all fronts was starting to overwhelm me. It reminded me that I'm not welcome in the L&D forum. >.<

I'm not trying to evoke sympathy here, I'm just trying to explain my behavior the past day or so. Just figured I'd make that clear.
