I'm not happy let me just throw that out there! I don't understand people. I went for a walk with Boss today. Here we are just trucking along, Boss checking everything out, Me just jamming to the iPod. We are minding our own business not bothering a soul just walking and sweating. There were some typical honks and waves and all that jazz that you get when walking on a sidewalk in town, that is expected. What was yelled out today, stopped me dead in my tracks. I had just finished my one mile on way and was starting on my way back home when this car full of teenage boys ( they couldn't be a day over 17) passed by and as they are passing by one hangs half way out the window and yells " WHALE!!" Really?!?!?! Why? Here I am trying my hardest and actually getting out there and bettering myself and you want to make nasty comments like that? How rude. I'd be lying if I said it didn't bother me. It did. No one wants to be called names or hurtful things said to them. It doesn't make you feel good. But I can say I am not going to let it phase me, I am still going to go out there and do my walks and continue to get myself all fit a sexy. A month or so ago if this would of happened, you wouldn't see me back out there for fear that that moment would happen again. Not this time! You aren't getting in the way of me and my goal mister. I just hope that whom ever it was that made that comment gets at one with himself and solves what ever issue he has that makes him feel better by making other people feel bad about themselves.
So people just remember when you see a bigger person out walking or running or whatever it is they are doing, don't yell out mean things to them and make them feel bad about themselves. Believe me, we already have enough self image issues, we DON'T need you to publicly point out our flaws. We are aware of them, that's why we are out there.... TRYING TO FIX IT!
Ok Im done I am off my soap box......A full body pic with measurements will be coming up in the next post or so!
Carla, you are better then this, DON'T be letting some adolescent IGMOE get to you like this, Just know that YOU are Taking a Stand this time, YOUR MAKING A DIFFERENCE & Once we get this weight off of us, Just Imagine the difference we will make in others lives, cause we will be HEALTHY & Energized! Stay focused and Ignore comments like these, Some KID's Think they are Invincible to having something Major like this to happen to them when they reach adult hood! I was NEVER mean to others, but I NEVER thought I would end up in this shape, WE WILL CONQUER THIS ISSUE AND SQUASH IT LIKE A BUG!!! I <3 You & I"M SO PROUD OF YOU!!!!
ReplyDeleteSuch losers in this world... I'm starting on this same journey and nobody can take the feeling of accomplishment away from you. Don't let anyone make you feel a certain way. Especially immature boys.
