As a former Fatty I have empathy ....so no I wouldnt hurl the fat insult at anyone........but like everyone else if they doing something ignorant or just plain dumb they may get a little taste of sarcasim from me but without fat related words........You know I think its also because I know God dont like ugly and who knows a few years from now I could be the big girl again say due to being careless or sometimes meds will make you blow up like a balloon.....etc etc....
I was once as the end of fat discrimanation and I still remeber how hurtful it was

Touche girl. God don't like ugly. The fat discrimination thingy happened to me too, unfortunately. Dayuum, what haven't I been thru? Anyway, I wanted to make a comment about "becoming fat AGAIN!" I was recently on some meds and I was feeling great. When I realized that after 2 weeks of takin them mofo's that I had ballooned up 10 POUNDS!! OMG!!! I was PISSED! Here I am going to the gym 7days a week and sometimes 2 timer per day (no lie!) and only eating 1000 cal per day, if not less. Can you imagine how that must feel? So, I had to make a decision to either "keep the weight off" or "feel better." Guess which one I chose? Lol! Yep! That one! Lol! Its taken a while,but my doc and I found another med, but it doesn't work the same as the other. Oh well.

Wow,
It's really funny that you would post this today. This morning I was on my way to work on the train and this woman was sitting on the end of a 3 seat. She was obese so there was no one sitting in the middle seat. The train was crowded already no one could sit next to her but she felt the need to sit at the edge of her seat. That really pissed me off because now no one could hold on to the rail in front of her honestly she was occupying 4 spaces unnecessarily.
Yes I have lost some weight and at times people still don't want to attempt to squeeze into the seat next to me, I know what it is to want to blend in. I just couldn't fathom why she would command so much attention by demanding so much space
I wrestled with my conflicting feelings for the whole ride. I really fight with myself because I've been obese my entire life and I don't want to become one of those people who "forget where they come from"

Honeymoon Challenge!
When I see another obese person especially if they look uncomfrontable in there own skin. I totally understand their position. I hope they see the light soon and start taking care of themselves. I try not to pass judgement because I did not want anyone judging me. I thought I was fat and cute and they probably think the same thing. So I do empathize alot. I do sometimes wonder to myself am I as big as them. I know it is crazy but that is usually my first though.
Honestly, I feel two ways.
1. I feel bad for them. Everyone is watching them to see what they are doingm, what they are eating, how fast they are walking, how they are breathing and if they are in the grocery store or Walmart or someplace like that, people are looking to se what they are putting in their basket just to justify that whole" look at that fat ass heffa/******* All that damn junk in his/her cart. That's why he/she is so effin fat, etc. etc"
2. I feel glad for me. I made a decision to stop the damn madness. Seeing someone in that condition only justifies my decision to change. I was the chick with the stained clothes, basket full of junk, found the closest parking space, could barely walk and breathe, so forth and so on. So everyitme I see someone in that position, I feel a lot better about me. And that sounds effed up but it's the truth.
