I know!

Yes, I know I'm fat, but I think not the most overweight person that exists. I just gained some extra weight but not too much. I hate it when people keep on telling in front of my face that I'm fat! I consider reactions from friends whom I've never seen for years but people around me like my parents and close friends, I know they're joking but I guess the joke isn't funny anymore when it's been said several times, it becomes irritating to my ears! .. But despite how I feel inside, I still smile at them and answer them "Yes, I know!" or "Hey, do you have short term memory loss? You already said that, do you have any topic that we can at least talk about, something that makes sense?" or "Hey, you too haven't you seen yourself in a mirror for a while?" .. especially when the one talking is bigger than me..

I do feel you. There was a time when I was too skinny and people kept slapping it to my face and I really hated it. So I tried to research and learn how to gain weight and when I did, somebody told me I was fat. However, that comment made me the happiest person in the world. But I do understand you. I hated being called skinny and be the center of attention.

I think some people should be sensitive to this kind of concern.

@carexing25 I think we need to ignore them. Instead, we can try to do something about it and prove these people that they wrong about this concern.

it's depressing but I try my best to fight how I feel,.. i'm kinda losing control of my emotions, there were times I'd like to breakdown, but I won't let people pull me down just because of my extra weight..

Why do they keep telling you that you are fat. That is really rude.

that I don't know.. they just laugh at me.. if they aren't my close friends or a family member, i would call it bullying.. but it's bullying.. they tease me for fun just to make themselves happy for what they call me.
