I went from 170lbs to 135lbs in 6 or so months. I am 5’9.
Now to get to the story, a little background first: in my 2nd year of highschool, i started gaining weight and became depressed. My only happiness at the time was eating a delicious meal at night. I was extremely insecure and would cry in bed all night because i hated myself so much, for no real reason besides the fact that i let myself get fat. I was part of the popular group and all the girls were slim and hot. I have a good looking face but after gaining weight, not so much. I stopped taking care of myself and it showed. I couldn’t look people in the eye anymore and i tried to hide myself from the world. I slowly started to be an outsider to my group of friends as i distanced myself more and more. I was alone, i felt alone, but it was all my own fault. Then, the teasing started. Guys who used to think i was hot, started calling me fat, a slob and would constantly get mad at me if i did something wrong in class or said something clumsy. They would laugh in my face everytime i walked past them and make sarcastic comment about the way i looked. My confidence was completely gone and they could feel it. Everyone started to treat me like crap and i let them, because i treated myself like crap aswell and felt like i deserved it. After highschool, i moved away with my mom and brother to a different city and decided it was time to get back in shape, so i did. I lost the weight by lifting weights, some cardio and a low carb diet. I became hot again. I started getting attention from guys again, people treated me well and i started to love myself again. I still feel the same way now. I am happy with who i am and i feel attractive and confident.
So recently i got in contact with some old friends (girls) who have always been nice to me but i pushed them away when i was depressed. Anyways, we decided to hang out in my old city. We were getting drinks at a bar and guess what? All the guys who treated me like shit in highschool were there. They stared at me from the moment i walked in till the moment i left. I didn’t say hi to them, i just gave them a quick glance with a soft, cocky smile like “yeah, its me, take a good look”. It felt absolutely amazing. I had a great time with my friends.
The next day, i got 3 messages on instagram from 3 of the guys who saw me the night before. They all said the same kind of stuff like “Hey, i saw you last night and you looked really good! You want to hang out sometime?” I couldn’t believe they actually thought they had a chance after making me feel like shit for 2 years. So i replied just saying “Nah”. And they all started asking why not??? I ignored it. It felt so good to turn them down.
So please, do not treat people like shit if they get depressed, fat, anxiety or any kind of (mental) illness. Life is hard enough already.
