the harsh truth

sometimes words sting.

i remember a few years back, i overheard a boyfriend of mine defending me to some of our friends.
"no seriously, she really just has big bones..." in a surprised tone.
thats when i realized...holy crap. im fluffy!

then comes when i lost the weight and started working at ******.
i was about 175 and looking good. but come a few years later after 2 deaths and 3 years working at the desk job...
i was a lot more of me.
i was talking to a friend who said ever so gracefully "when you started here, you looked really good; i bet it wouldnt take very long to get back there".

i understood both of their points.

even at my thinnest ive been curvy.
and it really wont take that long, and doesnt when i put forth the effort.
did i or do i ever want to hear that?

no. but heres to holding myself accountable with these words so i dont have to worry about hearing them or the likes of those statements ever again.
