"Oh you carry your weight well because you're tall!"
"Oh it's easier for you to look skinny because you're tall!"

NO, that is NOT how it works.
I carry my weight well because I work out. I still weigh more than a lot of people who are "bigger" than me. It's not because I'm secretly fat and hiding it with my height. It's because I'm freakin tall so I weigh more.
I don't carry my weight well because I'm tall....I carry my weight well because I work out!!!!

End rant.

I too am on the other end, I'm only 5 foot, but everyone thinks I'm naturally skinny because I am short. Everyone tells me, "oh you're lucky you get to eat whatever you want becuase you're so petite", but I'm "so petite" because I work my @$$ off to be this way.

People say the craziest things. Not sure if they are trying to be cordial, respectful or politically correct to spare your feelings. Either way, it's annoying.

I don't care what most people say about my body. It's about me, not them. That's about the one thing in my life that I will be selfish about.

Now - some people don't look heavier than they are because of their height; I do believe that. Conversely, some people look heavier due to their small stature. In other words, some people "carry their weight" differently.

Sorry...I just wanted to say! Carry On!

This used to be my excuse until South Park ruined it:

Lmfao....another one of Cartman's great quotes..."I'm fat but you're ugly. At least I can work out." haha

A bit like the classic Winston Churchill quote when his PA called him a drunk:

I may be drunk, Miss, but in the morning I will be sober and you will still be ugly.
