. . . my mother calls me scrawny.
. . . my partner tells me I look like I need a sandwich.
. . . my dad makes fun of me for having arms like a man.
. . . I overhear strangers at the gym talking behind my back saying, "not THAT skinny, that's too much!"
. . . my family threatens an intervention over my "fitness addiction."
. . . someone tells me it wouldn't hurt me to gain a few pounds.

I'm NOT insulted. I'm thinking, "Yay me! I'm fit and thin! Hooray for me!"

(I'm 5'5'' and 126.5lbs today and perfectly healthy and I EAT.)

    LOL! Love it :D

    ....the muscled guys gawk at some of the stuff my trainer has me doing ( like battle ropes standing on BOSU balls)

    ...the people walking on the track are amazed at how many flights of steps I climb
