Body types. It’s not something that we can do much about, but we should take care of what we have.
I’m NATURALLY skinny. You can tell at a first glance. However, I am NOT anorexic.
A lot of people can’t believe that I am this skinny, even though I have been pretty much my whole life. It’s something that I get really self-conscious about without realizing it, especially when people first meet me. I wish when people first met me, they don’t comment on how skinny I am, but rather judge me on my personality instead. My sarcasm can handle being judged because I allow my personality to be what I want it to be.
I’ve had people ask if I go on diets or if I’m anorexic and that bothers me. I try not to get defensive because then they might think I’m lying, but it’s sad that people think I actually TRY to make myself become this skinny.
There are times I will try my hardest to eat … A LOT. But no matter how many attempts, I can’t gain that weight. It’s just how I’m built. I can’t eat a whole lot, because my stomach simply can’t handle it. I’ve never done anything extreme with trying to gain weight, nothing dangerous or anything like that, but I wish I could actually gain weight.
If I could choose, I would not want to be this skinny, but I can’t do a whole lot about it. I’ve learned to live with it, but the thoughts still creep up from the back of my mind when I’m not looking.
I know this is one of those subjects that people ‘preach’ to others about, however I’m not trying to do that. I’m just throwing out my opinions. Nothing more, nothing less.
I think we forget that a lot of body types come naturally,
There’s pro’s and con’s to every body type, but you just need to remember what the pro’s are to your body are and embrace it~

Great post! I suffer with this too except on the semi-opposite side of the spectrum. I’m petite and curvy so I’m always self conscious as well. I wish people didn’t notice our appearances first. 🙂
Thanks girl! I would love to be petite instead of tall~
