    as for being curvy, i was that even when i was a size 4. curvy is more about body proportions than body size. i know plenty of overweight women who still look like sticks, just larger ones

    yes, this


    I was never a size 4. the absolute smallest was early in high school about an 8/10, completely unrealistic now.
    i've never wanted to be anything but curvy. the only downside ever was attention when i wasn't old enough to
    understand it, but that's really it. i've never wanted to be any other body shape either. hour glass is just fine for me
    and the guys :love: :blushing:

    people take me more seriously when i was fatter than when i was thin. that's one of the MAIN reasons i purposely wanted to be bigger.

    ^^^ this, most of the time I feel like no one is really listening when I talk, I even catch people looking me up and down while I'm talking to them and sometimes I feel like they think I am some blond white trash bimbo that doesn't know what she's talking about... I feel like Rodney Dangerfeild....lol

    the only thing I liked was that I was taken a little more seriously when I was bigger ( I was never obese just a little overweight) when I lost all the weight the comments like you've lost too much, or there's no way your not starving yourself. came back. I was skinny most of my life and always heard things like you must be anorexic, or there's no way your healthy. I wasn't big enough I guess to get the fat comments.

    The only thing I will miss is eating pretty much whatever I wanted. I will be more than happy to get rid of the big boobs! (If I do.)

    i've never been warm. most of the year i sleep with a very heavy thick blanket, sometimes even when it's blistering hot outside that's the blanket i want even if i'm hot. but i'm rarely too hot. gradually through the winter i adjust and colder temps are not freezing,
    but i always have cold feet, hands ect, unless it's hot outside.

    The boobs. I'm about half way to my goal and I haven't lost them yet. I would be sad to see them go if I lose them when I hit my goal weight.

    I tend to be shy so being bigger meant being invisible. Of course, when I didn't want to be, it could be frustrating. But most of the time, I liked being able to stay in the background.
    THIS.

    I recently referred to being fat as my "Rape Deterrent" because nobody would look at fat me with anything other than disgust.

    And I hate that changing. I don't want people to look at me.

    I liked it because when someone was interested in me, I knew it was because of my personality, not looks. However even after admitting feelings for me no one would ask me out because of my weight. Double edged sword.

    I think when I was heavier I had more padding. Every time I bump or hit something it hurts wayyyyyyy more and bumps up longer .

    I deal with some social anxiety and being so big I was easily ignored/invisible to most people.

    I also think being so big and being bullied and so self conscious has helped me relate to others better - I am not very judgmental and very forgiving (thanks, bullies!)
