This was a very sweet video. I myself am a very petite girl, with my weight fluctuating between 99-108 pounds. My boyfriend is large guy, and I hate it when people say that it's weird and not normal for 2 people of different sizes to be together. What does it matter what your weight is? Does being "too fat" or "too skinny" affect any aspect of your personality? I think not. Some people are born in this world naturally a little chubby and big boned, and that's ok. It's something that makes them unique and beautiful. And the same goes for skinny girls. We get hate sometimes because people think that we are trying to be this skinny, and that we are anorexic and think we are "all that" just because our metabolisms work faster then some peoples. Stop the hate against all body sizes!
Love this video and the message. Its a subject very near and dear to my heart. On another note, I have a tip, try blending with a blending stump or Kleenex instead of your finger. When you blend with your finger, the oils on your hands kind of mix with the graphite and make it stick to the paper so it is harder to erase and it rubs away and damages the paper when you do. Also with a blending stump or Kleenex, it looks much neater and cleaner. I love your videos.
I'm a big lady . And I'm not happy with the way I look. Its hard to be happy when u see clothes made in your size but when u try them on they fit but look horrible. I am trying to eat healthy and excersize the eating part is easy but the getting moving isn't. I would rather starve then try and work off my lunch. Knowing this I look at myself in disgust . And I'm not eating processed food or gluten or sugar and yet I'm still a marshmallow.. its not the thin body I'm after cuz I am always covered up anyway per my religiouse beliefs . And Im not trying to impress anyone. But when I look in the mirror all I see is fat fat fat . I don't expect thin ppl to be sympathetic to large ppl . Cuz they probably don't give being fat a second thought . With all this said . I still love myself on the inside anyway , which is where the true beauty is anyhow
Hi Kat:-) I just subscribed after seeing you on with Bunny (grav3yardgirl...for those of you who might not know) doing the baby food challenge and this is the first of your videos that I've seen. Cool sketch! The topic is hard for me and the story broke my heart. I'm 40 yrs old and to this day I struggle with my physical self image. I'm adopted and have brothers and a sister. Brothers weren't adopted, my sister was but we're not blood related. Long story short, my family never had weight issues and I did and still do. With the exception of one of my brothers, all harassed me about my weight. My mom was the worst and my dad a close second. My birth mother was German and therefore I have a larger frame and as soon as I hit puberty the comments began. Before I started to gain weight I was the "beautiful" one.(in others opinions). Then it was all downhill from there. My mother put me on nutrisystem when I was 13 , I dropped 30 lbs in a very short period of time eating packaged food, and then I fell off the wagon and gained it all back and more in a month. I could go on and on but you get the picture. It's heartbreaking to me that people are treated like crap because of their size and it's especially disturbing when it comes from your own family. I have an 11 yr old daughter and she'll never hear the word diet from me. She's beautiful and confident and I will do everything I can to preserve that. I think this video and what you're doing is fabulous. Keep up the great work.
Thick people aren't the o only ones who feel self conscious. I'm a female using my hubby's account. I weigh 107 and I don't have the highest self esteem. You were talking about thigh gaps in your other video and I got news for you. If you lost weight you would have a gap there too. I feel if someone feels ashamed of their weight they should do something to change it. I had to lose 70 lbs to get in shape and I did it for myself. If you're happy with who you are then that's awesome but don't forget that skinny people can have self image problems too.
in 3rd grade i was bullied the whole year and was depressed they said stuff like ur 2000 pounds ur ugly ur fat no one likes you and even my friends bullied me and it really hurt me i didnt want to go any were i didnt want to tell anyone i hated school i would cry every day no did anything i started loesing my friends bc my bullies started to bullie them bc they were my friends scence then iv still and bullyed im in 6th grade im 12 and i still have issues contect me kat
I'm in 7th grade and I weight around 145 pounds. I feel fat. Everyone says I'm beautiful and not fat or I'll grow out of it but I just feel like crap. I'm not confident about me and I just need help.
I stopped buying magazines because I made me self conches and as soon as I stopped buying then I'm no longer self conches and I'm happy about how I look (im a size uk 14 and proud)
People always forget that thin people can be self conscious about their body too. Especially when people make comments on it the first time they meet you. "Hi, I'm [insert name]....you're really skinny!" It's not fun, it makes me uncomfortable. I eat a ton, more than I should actually. I'm a really fit and active person who never sits still so I can't gain any weight, and people have called me anorexic, that I need to eat more, it's offensive and rude. It makes me sad when people say thigh gaps are gross and skinny is sickly because I can't control my weight, and I still get daily comments on it and hear so many negative things about how being skinny is overrated and bad. It's just sad :(
I've always been skinny and for a while I've worried about being fat but I'm just growing, I mean I'm only thirteen. I'm only a little bigger than I was in fifth or sixth grade and I've never been 100 pounds or over in my life.
I HATE that society tells people that you need to be skinny to be beautiful. I have has a body image issue for a long time . Now, I'm trying to be more comfortable in my own skin. I used to be perfectly fine with my image until I started getting bullied for my weight and size . It's honestly ridiculous .
So im a very skinny girl. And i have a best friend who isn't that skinny as me. BUT i would NEVER say something like her you just told about in this video! She's a horrible friend!
NEW ViDEO is up!
