I don't like how I have to always be judged for my weight - I hate that.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
A few years ago, I lost 30 pounds, and people still wanted to criticize. And honestly, I'm happy with myself if I'm a little heavier.
Even when people are so judgmental about what you wear or your weight you just have to step away and be like, 'I'm a normal, fine human being.'
When people talk about my weight, I'm like, 'You seem to have a problem with it; I don't.'
I try not to judge because I've been judged a heck of a lot, and it don't feel nice.
I just don't like being overweight.
Some of my battles with weight have been very public. But most of them have been internal. Even at my thinnest, when my body was being praised, I wasn't happy with what I saw in the mirror or how I felt about myself.
A few years ago I lost 30 pounds, and people still wanted to criticize. And honestly, I'm happy with myself if I'm a little heavier. I realized: 'Why am I trying to conform to someone else's idea of beauty?' I think I'm beautiful either way.
I always say you shouldn't weigh yourself. I don't even have a set of scales in my house.
I find that we must be careful not to judge or weigh in on anything other than ourselves. I am living and learning this still!
I've never disliked myself, and my weight has had nothing to do with my self-esteem.
