The famous "Fat Jokes"

I love how every time someone looks at me when they're trying to pick a fight and don't know me, they immediately rely on my weight to be the basis of the jokes and cruelty. Truth is, after middle school I got out of that bothering me for a long time. Up until a few days ago, it didn't really bug me all that much and then I thought to myself: "Ignoring this isn't making it better, it's making it worse". So I decided to take a new approach to it.
As of approximately two days ago, I am determined not to let the negativity bring me down anymore! I have told myself that instead of listening to or ignoring these remarks, if I instead take them in and turn them into a positive motivator for me, it will help me to lose weight.
If anyone else is experiencing this, please take this advice as it will help you to continue to be motivated, it will also allow you to be one step ahead of those that think about and will choose weight as a basis of poking fun or insultation toward you. Trust me, this method does work if you give it a chance. If you have any questions, feel free to message me or post your questions on this thread.
