“You’re great just the way you are! Why do you want to lose weight?”

Well, I’m glad you asked. It’s because I want…

• To stop being the fat friend
• To finally be thinner than my bully, who’s gained tons of weight
• To be small enough for my future boyfriend to pick me up with ease
• To hear “you’re so beautiful” instead of “you’re so funny”
• To clear my plate without judgement from others
• To be able to eat less, but feel more full
• To wear clothes that fit the style I want
• To not be told I “got lucky” to be dating a thin guy
• To be one of those thin bitches that everyone is jealous of
• To not be judged for being “unhealthy”
• To feel comfortable naked
• To rock a bikini
• To finally wear shorts without uncomfortably tugging at them to try and cover my fat legs
• To not anxiously pull my shirt from stomach for fear that my fat is “too obvious”
• To have my boobs touch the wall before my stomach does
• To shock my family and friends with how nice and thin I look
• To not be scared of stepping on the scale, no matter where I am
• To have an actual jaw line instead of a double chin
• To be a success story and not a failure
• To. Not. Be. Fat.
