About weight gain and weight loss
Fat Girls and Skinny Girls




Okay, so I am a 19 year old girl, struggling with weight loss. I know that sounds like the typical 'I feel sorry for myself because I am not skinny and every males dream'. No that's not me. I am confident and I know my strengths and weakness. However yes, I have always struggled with my weight since I can remember and I am excellent at loosing weight. When I put my mind to loosing weight, I can do it, I can loose a stone as fast as I put it on but how do you keep the effort up? the motivation? this is the questions I don't know. 2 Months down the line of a diet, I get fed up. Why should I starve myself, use all my personal time I have in the gym? Just so I can be considered as 'beautiful' in society?



I understand a part of being slimmer is the health, yes if you have more fat you are more likely to suffer from heart failure and such other things that every GP makes you aware off even if your going there for a sore elbow! (Nothing to do with being fat, but a doctor will find a way to blame your weight on this) and I understand being fit and healthy is important, however in this day and age, why is society so obsessed with looks? they don't want you to be slim and toned they want you to be a pile of bones, to starve yourself to be accepted.



For the first time in around 8 years of struggling with my weight, I have realised. I am not being what society thinks I should be. I want to be fit and healthy for my health however I no longer let my weight affect how I see myself as a person. I am a 'beautiful' person. I am loving, kind and friendly. I do not believe in violence and I love people for who they are and not what they look like. So yes, I am a size 16 and yes I have big boobs, bum and not such a flat stomach but I believe I am the definition of a beautiful person weather society can see that or not!
