Unfortunately it's impossible for one to become skinny overnight, but I am working on losing the weight I'm carrying. (Actually I'm down 4lbs since when I posted this secret. Go me!) But it's not just me.. I just feel like people shouldn't make fun of each other period.. Whether it's, "you're too skinny, eat a sandwich lol" or "PUT DOWN THE FUCKING FORK!" it's still wrong. And sometimes? They got that way before they realized it was a bad thing. I've been overweight since I was 7 (not as severely as I right now, but still, overweight) and that was before I knew there was anything wrong with me. Now that I know, I'm trying to change it.
I don't want to encourage overweight people to stay overweight; it's not good, it's not heathly. But at the same time, an unhealthy body image by saying, "IT'S NOT NORMAL, IT'S NOT OKAY!" is a bad thing, either. It depresses people more than it encourages them to lose weight. Why can't we have both? Stress the importance of HEALTH rather than the importance of looking good. If people love themselves, they'd want to lose weight because of the health factors alone. (For me, it's both. I want to look good, but I want to be healthy and live longer, too.)
