A Good Day Turned Into a Bad Day

I went to the gym this morning, felt really good about myself. I have the week off work which means I have more time to work on things for class and be more productive. I took a selfie in my gym's changing room and uploaded it to instagram.

Then, I received a message on instagram. Someone, a complete stranger, told me that I looked good before telling me that I needed to lose weight. They then proceeded to call me a fat *kitten* and a fat *kitten*.

This is the first time this has happened since I left high school. Since I've left high school I haven't had anyone make fun of me for my weight, be rude etc. I haven't experienced this in so long and I know it shouldn't get to me but because it happened out of the blue I just feel like crying.

I know I need to lose weight and that's what I'm trying to do. That's why I'm going to the gym and trying my best.

It's just put a complete damper on my day. It has always confused me how people can be so mean to people they don't know.
