A boy was once making fun of my brother , and I got so mad cause the kid made fun of me repeatily daily , i turned around and punched him pinned him to the ground and slugged him about 6 times then let him go . He never once made fun of my again.
The only funny I had ever been in and the only one I feel was worth fighting.
vouge, WTG. My son once got in trouble at school for standing up to a boy that was picking on Lacy for throwing up at school (she had heart and abdominal surgery since) . He thought it was totally worth the paddling that he took.
Lacy is down 4 lbs. now and very happy.
Yayyy! When your a teen and unhappy about somehting like weight , It can be some of the most tramatizing moments . When I was 13 I was called so many names that even to this day I shutter and really have such a hard time even speaking of the names I was called.
I once went shoppping with my mom when I was 13 and go so upset in the ar that nothing really fit me anymore and it was raining so hard , that I started crying as soon as we got into the car. I couldnt hold it. I told her what the kids called me and how much it was hurting me, I screamed in the car and I remember sitting there for at least 45 minutes bawling while my mom held me and rubbed my back and hair. I almost threw up in the car I was crying so much! I then went on the atkins and lost at least 25 lbs , but I didnt realize it was a lifestyle thing and gained it back but funny how the name calling ended when I lost weight and those kids tried to be my friend once I wasnt a cow anymore. even though I gained some weight back kids never called me names since but I still havent forgotten. I had suicidal thoughts at that period in my life. When walking to school I would think , if I jump in front of that car what will happen... mind you I am 12-13 years old!!! Thats how much it can affect you!
I know how it feels , I cant seem to get rid of those memories , I guess thats why I am so motivated to lose weight.
