When you hear someone tell someone else about their new diet or how they need to lose weight, does it make you sad? Does it make you think? Or is it just too normal in our society? Why should we worry about some stranger’s weight? You know you only say something to the over weight person and not the skinny person. No one ever comments on my weight except doctors. I am 5'7"ish and i weigh (on a good day) 113 pounds fully clothed. I am tiiiiiny. I know i am. People used to tell me how they wish they had my waist. Now? They tell me they wish they had my disease. I am not kidding. They say they wish they had my autoimmume disease so they could be skinny like me. I eat 5+ meals a day with snacks inbetween and cannot gain weight because the damage my disease did to my lower intestines makes it difficult for me to absorb nutrients. I am as another person with Celiac disease put it “essentially starving with a full stomach”. If you know someone with celiac disease, you know how awful the sypmtoms can be. The vomiting, excruciating pain, the muscle weakness, and many other symptoms. If i ate something with gluten recently, i often have trouble lifting my arms and forget walking long distances. But people tell me they wish they had my autoimmune disease with the symptoms and the body attacking itself and they proneness to illnesses just to be skinny. Our society is so toxic that i have been told more than once and by multiple people that they wish they had a fucking autoimmune disease just to be skinny.
