I need to vent, I need to bitch, I need to complain, and anonymously is about the only way I can... I have talked about losing weight before, and I've done a really good job of maintaining... with diet changes. So, 3 weeks ago I decide to start running, again sort of. I tried running a couple years ago, but didn't really know what to do or how to do it. Shut up, yes I know how to run... but I didn't have direction or a coach, well, now I have an app for that. Two apps actually, but I digress. I've started running, I'm really really freakin proud of myself for being able to do what I've done in 3 weeks. E durance has never been my strong point. Anyway, I would really love to drop another 10 pounds, but am happy if I don't. My biggest goal with running is toning. I want to tone big time. So' why am I bitching? I am sick of comments about "skinny girls like you make me sick when you talk about losing weight" or "shut up skinny girl" or whatever. Yes, I get it, I should be happy someone thinks I'm skinny... I don't, but, I should be happy, right? No. It pisses me off. I have goals, I have changes I want for my body, I want to prepare myself for this whole getting older BS. I'm getting precariously close to that "middle age" mark, and I want to get there in a particular shape, and pear isn't it... so, leave me alone, let me have goals for myself, don't be condescending to me be cause you think I'm skinny. Realize that I don't think I am. Don't tell me I don't need to be out there running, sweating my ass off, working hard, because trust me, I wold love a good excuse to stop. I'm so freaking proud of myself for developing some self control these last couple years, and your comments are undermining that. Thank you... sigh.
