    Do you automatically think, "Wow, she's chubby".
    I feel like that's all I can think of when i meet new people, is that they're thinking how I'm cute but I'm really chubby.

    It's a paralyzing fear.

    You automatically assume everyone you meet thinks your cute?

    Not at all, but if they do think I'm cute, I assume they think right away, "But she's chubby".

    Everyone is their own worst critic. I have the same problems. In my head I know I'm not fat or chubby, but when I look in the mirror or see myself in photos that's all I can think.

    I think the better question here is why do you care if people think you're chubby? Try to be happy with yourself. Easier said than done obviously, but that's the only way I get through my day. It's one thing to be hard on yourself but if I walked around thinking everyone was judging me like I judge myself I'd go crazy.

    1. Some will think your chubby, some will think you are too skinny

    2. Some with think you are cute and some will think your ugly.

    Its just the way it is.

    P.s. you have high cheekbones, which sometimes make a face look "chubby". My friend who's like 80 pounds has the same problem. I think we're all just used to airbrushed media images which "pinch" in models already thin faces.

    I've turned a corner in forum posting...

    In the old days I would have posted the "myspace cropping" picture in like 2 seconds of reading the OP.

    Giving myself an attaboy for the restraint.

    I had to be calm, take a breath, and remind myself that I'm new here.

    Urgh! I hate these "Look and me and tell me I'm beautiful" posts. I mean, seriously, it isn't like anyone is going to get on there and say 'hell ya! You are a lard-o!'

    Please feel your confidence and be who you are without fishing for validation. I had a friend in school who was always the skinny one but would constantly say 'I'm so fat!' just so all of us would say she wasn't and that she was beautiful. It always irked me.

    Be you and quit caring what other people think.


    Thanks for your opinion, but if you hate these posts, no need to reply :)
    Haha!!!! Nice come back!

    Maybe you shouldn't put so much stock into what others think and just be happy with yourself the way you are.

    Just a thought.

    You know, I was thinking to myself yesterday when I was running "I wonder what other people see", and I was so curious I almost asked a bunch of kids if they thought I was fat. Kids are painfully honest. I'm glad I decided against it.

    You're a lovely girl. :)

    I have to agree with this, you are going to be some peoples cup of tea and to others you won't, it's too objective and purely based on personal taste and opinion. So your main focus should be how you feel about yourself not how others feel about you. Confidence is sexy whether you are chubby or not.

    Hell it's a day to day feeling too, I know some days I'm thinking man I look pretty good and others Man I am a friggin cow. No point in stressin
