I remember when I was a kid, I could never find anything positive about chubby girls. If a girl was pudgy in books, she wasn't okay. She couldn't be happy or make friends unless she lost weight.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Growing up, I was always chubby. My girlfriends were always running around in two-pieces, and I never felt comfortable to do that.
When I was younger, I was chubby. It gave me a terrible sense of self-image, and I guess I carry that around with me still.
I was a little bit chubby when I was a kid.
As a kid who grew up chubby, I just marveled at the fact that I could be thin.
I grew up a chubby girl. I had two brothers. My parents loved us, they just fed us whatever we wanted.
I'm not a skinny girl. I push it. I'm at the limit of chubbiness at all times, but I'm happy at all times.
I was born fat and have always been, which was just fine and even healthy and cute until I turned ten or so. Puberty hit like a hurricane and brought a new set of rules. All of a sudden it was my fault I was chubby.
Within the modeling industry, there's no doubt that there are some girls out there that are too thin. But there are also girls who are genetically slim and can eat like a horse.
I would love it if people could look at chubby folks with all of our curves, bumps and ridges and just say 'She's beautiful' just like that. You don't have to get on a treadmill as long as your blood pressure is under control and you eat healthy, God bless.
You know, I was chubby when I was a little girl. And I have all those issues everyone else has. But I try not to. And I've learned over the years that it's such a waste of time. And people like me whether I'm a little bit fatter or not.
