Being told you're too skinny is no less rude and insulting than being called fat. I'd love to know where people get off thinking they can just approach you and ask if you're ill. Gee, thanks. I look like a sick anorexic. Thanks for mentioning it. Idiots
.
I'd just be the better person and say 'I'm naturally able to shove a large pizza in my face, followed by 5 scoops of icecream smothered in yummy whipped cream, and not gain an ounce. Guess I'm just lucky that way!
. Why? Are you jealous?'.
Some people are so insensative it amazes me
. My friend has a medical condition (not sure exactly what it is) but she has an overactive metabolism and she has to eat a ton of food just to keep up with it. She's very skinny and very sensative about it. I've been with her when people tell her that she's too skinny, and ask if she's okay. I felt so badly for her. She is self consious enough about the way she looks. People pointing out her skinniness doesn't help. I honestly want to just tell them to mind their own business!
