  • Wow some *kitten* pointed out that I'm fat today at work while I was making one of the six freakin lattes he ordered. It was all I could do to not throw it in his face! He ordered 6 coffees, then said let's face it your not a small person haha ...and then went on to say a couple gross fat jokes. And I just said that's rude take your stuff and leave , like I didn't know wtf shoot me now lol. I have have been working out and following a vegetarian diet minus dairy for a few months and have noticed results. This kind of thing really throws me off and bums me out :( I just signed up with this app and it looks helpfull.

    People have tourettes I think. They can't help blurting.

    What is is. If you're fat you're fat. If someone says you're fat, the question is, why are you upset? Don't you know you're fat? Do you think it doesn't show?

    If they said 'your hair is red' would you get upset? Or 'you're wearing brown shoes'?

    Why can they describe any part of reality except your fat? Is your fat the 'elephant in the room'? Am I allowed to laugh at that or is that a fat joke?

    Honestly people. The sooner you stop getting all screwed up about being called fat, the sooner it will stop happening.
