Hello and welcome to another dose of life advice from yours truly. Today's topic, variable figures. And no I don't mean numbers. I mean the body figure. Yes this is yet another topic that is lately the subject of bullying besides lesbians and gay people. Now I myself have suffered from verbal abuse because of my weight. I'll admit I let it affect me. The popular kids would always talk behind my back and make fun of my weight just cause they thought it was "fun". Well today I am almost 17 and I am not as "heavy" as I used to be but I still have a few extra pounds to shed. And I'm being totally honest when I say the bullying has affected me deeply, by causing me to have binge eating disorder, which I know some of you may have. Its one of the main reason for weight gain. So what I am pleading to you, especially my fellow curvy brethren, is to never push yourself to lose weight unless it is for YOUR OWN benefit. Lose weight to be fit, healthy, to wear what you like, but don't do it because you're not cool if you're fat (Which is by the way so not true). Some of the great people of the world were a bit overweight. But did that stop them from achieving what they did? NO!! So lose weight for you! And do it in a healthy stable way. Don't do it fast because it will just bounce back. Take it slow and steady so they stay off for good. Don't take the absolute drastic measures like making yourself puke or starving yourself or surviving on mints! That's just wrong. It won't make you look hot you'll just look sick. And another thing, don't think that you are ugly because you are fat. You are beautiful by personality AND looks. The 10% is on the outside, while the other 90% is in you. I've seen very beautiful girls get turned down by guys because they acted like complete jerks. Same goes for guys. And don't ever let words bring you down. They'll only hurt if the person who spoke them means something to you. So all in all, take care of yourself. Your body is a temple, so don't break it down. Oh and before I forget, if someone tells you that you're not the next big thing because you're a couple of pounds over the scale, tell them you don't care because with their attitude they won't have a shred of chance for success in life. Nice guys don't finish last. They get the girl in the end of the movie. Same goes for girls. Now if you will excuse me, I'm gonna have some ice cream and then workout for a good 90 minutes. Hope you benefited from my dose, especially my curvy friends out there. We're all in this together. Hue Mann, over and out!! ;)
