Sorry........I need to vent!!!!!!!
I just got home a few minutes ago. We live on a small street in a large city where people like to hang out on their porches. My fiancee and I had to walk by a few guys who live next to us (ages 20-21) who obviously had nothing better to do than to hang out on their porch. My fiancee was walking ahead of me because his hands were holding heavy bags of groceries and was in a hurry to put them down on our porch. When I walked by, they started telling eachother, "Look, there's Budha. That right there is Budha." As many of you know, I have had a panniculectomy, as well as have lost over 120lbs. I KNOW I LOOK GOOD!!!! But the funny thing is, my fiancee is very overweight and had a big belly. (due to my panni, I no longer have a belly!) So, why am I Budha, and not my fiancee????? Why was nothing said to him, but I was called names???? This has happened more than once!!!! About 2 years ago, (when I was definately big) my fiancee and I were walking home, and a bunch of guys in a car started shouting "It's the great pumkin!!!!" at me because I was wearing an orange shirt. AGAIN nothing was said to or about my overweight fiancee!!! WHY???????????
Men are such chickens!!!!!!!!!!
That's the only reason why I can figure they would only yell stuff at me and not my man!!!!! Any one else encounter stuff like this where you are with someone else overweight and, yet, YOU are the only one targeted for verbal abuse?

Do you see the glass as half empty or half full? I say, what difference does it make--I paid for a full glass,so either way I am getting jipped!!!
Miss_Kitty,
Rest assure that the name calling is about their insecurity. Don't let them define who you are. Hold your head up and keep going towards your goal. Yes, there is a double standard. Many men are overweight but it is acceptable because they are men. Trust who you are inside and you'll be okay. They may be thin but obviously they are ugly on the inside and "if you're ugly on the inside, then you're ugly on the outside." You my dear, are going through a transformation and lucky to have a second chance at living a full healthy life so you probably understand how to appreciate life for what it is. Ignore them and stay pretty on the inside because beauty is skin deep so, "if you're pretty on the inside, it will show on the outside." If they keep it up, I'll help you throw eggs and we'll be so skinny we will be able to outrun them. LMAO.

Are those ******** saying something different than the looks people might give you? I was way over weight, my entire life, until now i can never remember being thin. I can never remember weighing what i do now. I know those looks, sometime they are followed by words sometimes not, both are given by mental children. Consider the source and enjoy your life.
