Ok, so I'm not a skinny girl. But I'm not fat either. So people think I'm ugly, or unhealthy or inactive. I don't think I'm ugly, I eat very healthy, and take dance and run everyday. Its pretty much just my genes that make me how I am.
Which is totally annoying. Why do we praise other people who are just BORN. They never did anything to make themselves that way, it just happened like that.
I'm 12, 5'3" and I weigh somewhere around 120lbs. Thats not big is it? Considering muscle and stuff.......
I want to be skinnier just because of all the pressure to be skinnier and more beautiful!
I'm sorry i wasn't born that way!!

I was having this conversation with my sister just the other night. I said almost the exact same thing to her.

Yes. I am very tired of people praising others for BIRTH-GIVEN INHERITED traits. You are BORN a naturally beautiful person. You do nothing to earn it, or anything. You may be BORN with a high metabolism. So congratulations on being born with a high butt... that really is some achievement.

It's not that it is, but how it is treated. It is the 'congratulations' that is given to these traits. You are naturally skinny. Great.

I do not like that "FAT" is the worst thing you can be in today's society. No you can be vindictive, you can be selfish, greedy, inconsiderate, rude, whatever you wish... but please, america... don't be fat. Go ahead and be as horrible a person as you wish... just please do not be fat.

It is ABSOLUTELY ridiculous, this attitude. The best compliments are the ones about your brain!!!!! You are a good person! You are one of the most intelligent people I know! You are so kind to everyone! As opposed to... Hey, great face!!!

So please.... you are not fat in the least. Everyone has different definitions of fat. Being merely a 12 year old, the majority of those skinny girls at your school were born with it. You have an amazing body, and if you can maintain it, you will have such a healthy life!

Work together and break the fat stereotype! We are not all lazy, know-nothing computer nerds who eat fast food all day. I am a vegetarian who is on a dance team and has a gym membership that I use! I am a smart person with a good heart who is worth getting to know, no matter how many fat molecules I have!

GOOD LUCK!!!

5'3" and 120 lbs is not fat. Are these "people" telling you they think you are fat? It's never nice to call anyone ugly, but it's also not always referencing size when they do. Either way, take a look in the mirror... take time each day to shower, fix your hair and dress in todays styles. Don't let others influence your weight, healthy is what you want to be inside and out.

PS.. NEVER ever let them know that when they say something it bothers you. Have confidence in yourself and it will show! Good Luck!

No, I understand what you're affirming. I particularly have a sister it truly is 5-foot tall, very petite. Her bone structure is amazingly small compared to mine. She wears a length 2, i imagine, yet seems healthful. She only is a petite lady and has a smaller bone structure. i particularly weigh one hundred forty kilos yet can placed on a length 4 or 6 jeans. it truly is all depending on bone structure and body variety, the way you distribute weight. you are able to tell even as someone seems risky. it truly is the six-foot fashions that placed on a length 0. Now, it truly is a issue.

So true.. just always be happy about your body type and dont listen to what other people say. Haters = jealous of you somehow....besides the "normal" woman/girl should be average weight so dont ever think you are not skinny enough. Atleast you're not boney! Trust me you are fine the way you are. You are still little anyway. Keep the confidence going.. it will raise your self esteem. Hope this helps!! =]

You're not fat.. They don't know what they're talking about. It's probably because a lot of people in your age group are v. skinny. But they're going to fill out and then they'll be envious of your body. It just takes time.

I don't get it, you are nice and slim. Don't get hung up on this skinny obsession. It's ridiculous and there will be a major backlash at some point when all these skinny celebs end up with all kinds of health problems. Don't be like them, be happy with how you are. You are a perfectly healthy weight.

HTH : )

yes im sick to ***** death of it, it breaks my heart that ur only 12 and copping this, NO U ARE NOT FAT!
my daughter is 9 years old and she is so worried about her body already because of all the nasty lil bitches at school, calling her fat, this world is such an awful place. People we have got to stop this!!!!

i am glad to read that you are eating healthy and havent written something silly like " i am not eating at all". and please continue to think that way, because the impact of such things on young girls can lead to so many severe eating disorders, and such.
