The Vegetarian & the "FAT" Girl... Part 1

I had a conversation with a friend of mine as we walked in the park today. We do what all friends do; catch up when we haven’t seen each other in a while. Telling her about my latest dates and the things that are going on. When I get with this one particular friend we don’t really gossip per say, we talk more about life, our goals and what we want and expect out of life. We have meaningful conversations and deep ones too. She had mentioned that she read my latest blog post. Which is funny because I always feel like no one reads it. She inspired me with her words, just like she said that I have inspired her. She had mentioned that I speak my mind and that is the best part, is that I don’t hold back and I say what people think, but most people are afraid to say what they think.



I have always gotten in life that I am too open, that I need to not say or reveal too much. I ask myself why? If I am not ashamed or worried about being judged than why should I hold back with my thoughts or experiences. I truly don’t care if what I say makes people uncomfortable, I say what I say which I feel has true meaning behind it all.


If I tell you a story about a date that I have been on, or my weight issue, or even about family. Maybe just maybe it might have an effect on someone’s life; it could possibly make a difference in someone’s life. You might be able to relate because you are most possibly going through the same thing. Plus I reveal what I want to reveal, I know that people can use it against me, which has been done before, or I could possibly be judged for the things that I say. I will not apologize or with hold any information. Judge me all you want, criticize me, look down upon me, think what you want to think about me, but just so you know I truly don’t give a fuck.


I was put on this earth to touch people’s lives somehow. I feel that I need to make a difference.
Recently I had gotten in a very heated discussion through social media with a girl that I have met once. We will call her the “vegetarian”. Let me describe this girl to you, gorgeous girl, beautiful face, amazing body, you would think by looking at her that she has got it all. Let me tell you slight back story, I had met her at a mutual friends party for the fourth of July this past year, when I met her I thought she seemed nice, but when she started speaking, that’s when I realized that there was so much more inside. You can say I psychoanalyzed her quick. Let’s just say from one woman who has had her fair share of moments of insecurities you tend to easily spot the ones that are like you.



Now the reason why I got into an argument with her was over a post that she had put up on instagram. She had taken a picture of a plate of food, which on the plate was some veggies and I believe what appeared to be quinoa. Underneath her picture she had commented saying something along the lines of it is great being a vegetarian, then goes off to talk about all the overweight people around her and basically implying that they are disgusting and can’t even walk carrying their plate of food because there is so much food on their plate. Let me say one thing, I usually am not the one to comment on many things when it comes to social media, but when I do it is because it is something that I feel like I need to stand up and say no! You are wrong, how about looking at it this way. Plus like I’ve said before in other blogs, I have gone through the trials and tribulation of being overweight and losing weight. I have had those moments when people are staring at you when you are so big, or not being able to fit in an airplane seat, or roller coaster ride.
