But most distinctly, I remember always saying to myself that when I get big, I'm not going to go to bed hungry, I'm not going to wear hand-me-down clothes.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I have a big appetite, and staying on top of that is about knowing myself and saying, 'I can eat that today, but tomorrow I'm not going to.'
Of course I want to look good in clothes. And it never makes me feel good when somebody who has an insane figure tells me, 'I eat whatever I want.'
I notice if I'm too fat or if I'm too ugly or there's skin hanging or whatever. When my clothes start not fitting, I get really self-conscious about what I eat.
I wasn't a woman who stayed tiny like I thought I would. I definitely gave myself the freedom to eat what I wanted.
I'm the type of girl who's always had to buy jeans in three sizes because I never know what my body is going to do from one day to the next.
Whenever I pick up a jacket and it's heavy, I think, 'Oh, I don't want to wear that.'
Just because you're a different size doesn't mean you're sitting on the couch eating bonbons all day long watching TV.
I used to always buy clothes too big, but I should have showed off instead of covering up.
It's only I have seen enough of it and the funny thing is now, I know that I'm skinny, because I know there are even smaller clothes in the store. I think I'm big, when I was big, I never thought about it.
You can never say you're big - I don't think you can ever take anything like that for granted.
