_feelings_
anomalous i feel bad when i talk about feeling fat around people who are heavier than me, like my older sister

and i feel bad when people who are skinny or thin talk about feeling fat, like my mom and oldest sister


they tell me i am 'just right', 'pleasantly plump', just 'a little chubby', 'voluptuous'
but when i've lost weight, i've gotten 'you look better' comments from my oldest sister and my auntA and others

i've felt fat since i was six

people used to pull my face and call me 'chubby cheeks', and being called munchy didn't help


whenever i see pictures of starving people i feel very very fat

when i don't eat i feel guilty for not eating, because the starving people would eat if they could


when i write about these feelings i feel petty-minded for thinking and writing this way

when i feel this way i feel bad for thnking anyone is petty-minded, i feel the things i hate about myself must actually be things i hate about others, in the fashion of the way i think that the things i hate about others are the things i hate about myself


and all of my feelings tell me things, that i need to work on these things, these feelings

i can discount all of my feelings as unimportant, and maybe they are, but maybe they aren't. maybe writing them here is stupid, maybe it isn't


maybe self-acceptance has more to do with acceptance of others than i've thought

and by voicing i am killing

listening sorry i brought that down upon you nom

I was echoing a word that the BMI calculator spat out at me. It was weeks ago, and it keeps spinning round and round in my head. it's making it very hard for me not to hate myself
