the average conversation that happens with me in school, every day:


other kid:  yeah. how much do you weigh?

Me: around 129. (I don't lie)

other kid: *after a shocked silent moment*  ...well, that's just because you're tall. (like they're trying to comfort me)

i'm 5'8''. honestly. i'm trying not to relapse into my eating disorder, but that is KILLING my self-esteem.  how can i tell them that it's not BECAUSE of anything, and it just IS?!


do you get what i'm saying?

129 isn't even a bad weight. I'm 5'4, and last year I was 125, and I wasn't fat.

Wow. That person's a real asshole. You're perfectly fine. Seems thin to me, actually. I mean, I'm 5'1'' and I'm 120 or something.

I'm pretty positive that you don't need to lose weight. :\

Hmmmm, I don't know what to tell you... I am 140 lbs, 5'10" and I am all muscle. I weigh more than normal, or at least more than the other girls I know, but it doesn't matter to me. I'm the only one of my friends with a toned six-pack and who can beat guys arm wrestling. I can even pick up one of my friends (size of a sixth grader) and hold her above my head.
I'm not saying this to brag, or to try to be all BA, but I'm just saying, hey, you weigh less than me! And it's what's on the inside that counts. :D
