Just gonna put it out there- i'm afraid of skinny people- really i am- seriously- hate crowds of them- feel they are always judging me- cant eat in restuarants without thinking- they are staring at me wondering what is that fatso eating- scared to meet my two ds sisters cause damn they aren't fat and put up beside them i'm gonna be super gigantic ! this really does put a lot of stress and anxiety on me- i won't wear anything but jeans cause dang it- i feel the need to hide my body and i know i'm obsessed with all this cause i've already lost 40 lbs and should be happy that i'm not gaining - also when a skinny guy ask me out i always decline cause i'm afraid i will break him- am i the only one here like this ? am i in this alone- i feel like the fugliest person on earth and heck maybe i am - but dang i'd like to know for sure....just had to vent about this and let it all out....

You are not fat. You are very beautiful and I can't wait to meet you and hold you. I love you so much and always will. I love looking at your picture.

Hi Rock, please don't hate me, I have a terrible eating disorder and physically cannot eat. I hate being skinny and am envious of people with curves. See my stick thin body in my photo's you wouldn't want to look like me sweetie {{hugs}}

Well heck girl, you are being asked out?? I'm sure you are much more beautiful than you can see.

Don't be afraid of the judgement of others, if they do that, then they have much worse problems than you do!
((((hugs))))

Well as some one who is slim (and work damn hard at staying fit) Your persception is really skewwed. (sp?) This is your own insecurities. and I'm sure they are real. Congrats on losing 40lbs. Keep it up? Are you planning anymore weight? When my sister lost almost 100lbs and was lookin smokin hot she still saw herself as a 275lbs girl. It takes awhile for your head to catch up to your new size.

I love everything about you, Brandi

I'm not gonna give you the typical line of "who cares what people think!". The truth is, it's all about confidence. You need to be happy with yourself. All of those skinny people that you compare yourself to, I guarantee that 99% of them wish they looked different too. Taller, shorter, bigger breasts, smaller nose, anything. Just work on being confident. If you are happy within, the rest will fall into place.

ok wow didn't say i hate skinny people or that they are mean- just said i was scared of them judging me and being around them cause i'm afraid of what they are thinking about me even if they aren't saying it- dearest why would i hate u - an eating disorder is a problem that u are facing and we all have those to deal with and confront- this fear happens to be one of mine- much luv and big hugs !

Skinny people scare the Bejeebers out of me also, Always walking around with their arms out moaning Brains Brains Brains. uh no wait that's Zombies. Have you ever seen the show "How to look good naked" I watched it out of curiosity. The women really do feel better about themselves afterwards.

btw, skinny is not beautiful. being healthy and fit is.

deleted_user 02/21/2008

Amen to that Bella

I feel the same way sometimes druid. I find thin people to be mysterious and terrifying. Maybe if I quit drinking and eating so much bread I could be mysterious and terrifying too. Ugh, some exercise would probably help too. Ugh.

well this is as one of the replies said my own insecurities i totally own upto and admit that- others see me in a different way and i guess its true beauty is in the eye of the beholder but i just feel i could see what everyone else does- i look in the mirror and i'm like ur so fat and fugly no wonder nobody wants to be with you ! and thats honestly what i see- and u can tell others think it too by reactions - and i know i'm no beauty queen - but i'd like to have the self esteem of one - someday.....

deleted_user 02/21/2008

deleted_user 02/21/2008
