My thighs were huge; they were like rock! Growing up, I was really athletic, and I had a very athletic body.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I was a chubby boy. My pants used to wear out in the middle, and it was because my legs used to rub together. I wasn't obese, just chunky.
By nature, I was a little guy with big legs - a stocky lad.
When I was growing up, I cheered and danced and ran and stuff like that. I'm probably thinner now than I was in high school. I had a lot of muscle - a lot of muscle in high school.
My waist used to be tiny. I just saw a picture of Miley Cyrus with a little crop top and low pants, and I'm like, 'That was me growing up in Brazil!' I had the typical model body, but after babies, it changed. I look more like a woman.
Freshman year, I was 95 pounds and 4 feet 10 inches. So you can imagine what my football uniform looked like - my shoulder pads were bigger than my body!
Even when I was little, I was big.
When I was in first grade, the kids called me 'fatso.' It hurt, but the way I overcame it was to outrun every kid in the class. So I developed a thick skin, and athletics became my way of performing and being accepted.
I do have thighs and a butt. I have cellulite.
As a kid, I was super skinny.
I was very, very large as a kid and never athletic, and my home life was a little upside down and I never felt comfortable.
