    Errg! My weight is fine! Empty Errg! My weight is fine!

    Post by Hurdle-Gurl Wed Nov 26, 2008 12:13 am

    So in the past 3 weeks, EVERY SINGLE DAY, I have had someone make a comment about my weight. It's like, what the hell! It's been just ticking me off and I just need to tell somebody to get it off of my back.
    I've had comments said to me like I asked somebody if I was could borrow a dollar to buy a Rockstar after school & the person asked me if I had planned on buying diet.
    One day I sat down at lunch & one of my friends made a comment about what I had on my plate...I had probably about one more thing than them on my plate.
    At lunch, our band director has a bunch of snacky foods leftover from a special event we held, so he sells the snacky foods to people during lunchtime. Well for a few days I was buying the bags of cookies & one of the guys decided to tell me that I'm going to be fat pretty soon.
    Today I didn't eat lunch because I've been just so frustrated with what everyone's been saying lately. I went over to the pop machines to buy a water & my xc coach stood there to see what I'd get, a pop or a water. I was ticked. After school I ran and then I had to get ready for my band concert so I only had 75 cents so I bought a bag of cookies & ate them...a guy comes up to me a calls me fatty. Like WTH?!?!
    I know that I don't always eat the best things, but I TRY I really do! My coach said that my diet may be the thing holding me back from being really fast & he'd like to for me to write down what I eat for him to evaluate. It just frustrates me.
    I'm 5'3" and 125lbs. All of my friends are about 5'4"-5'7" and they all weigh anywhere from 95lbs-130lbs. I don't see why I stick out so much compared to them?
    My friends have been jerks and cracking jokes about how maybe I should go anorexic or something...you DON'T joke with something like that.
    ERRG! I'm just frustrated!....so post your thoughts if you have any.

    First off, you are at the upper ranges of a healthy BMI. Secondly, that friend who is 95 lbs is dangerously underweight, so don't take any health advice from her, because honestly when you're 5'4'' (which I'm going to assume she is) and under 100lbs, then you most likely have an eating disorder. All your friends sound like they're underweight or at an ideal weight if the heaviest some one weighs is 130 and is 5'7''.
    That guy who calls you fatty is an idiot, because unless you go to a school with no overweight kids, he clearly has a reference to what an actual fatty is. Also, a random guy coming up to me and calling me fatty would be grounds for a well deserved shouting.
    You aren't fat, and that weight is probably all muscle.

    Why would someone even say something like that?
    Anyways I have a really close friend who has an eating disorder right now. It was really strange finding out at first since I couldn't imagine her doing that to herself.

    I agree, your weight is perfectly fine. So long as you try to eat healthy, like you do, and you excercise, I'll be fine. These friends of yours that say your fat, do they excercise as much as you even?

    That sucks. I'm a guy so personally i wouldn't care, but yea i'm sure you're fine. and i don't think your coach is worried about your weight, but he knows coke+running a couple hours later=bad.

    aw im sorry. that sucks. its weird how similar things all seem to happen at the same time.

    first of all, there is no way you're fat (in case you were wondering)- your weight sounds healthy, a bunch of its probably muscle, and you run cross country. no one who runs year round needs to worry about their weight.
    maybe everyone feels comfortable making comments because they think you wont take it badly?
    eh i can understand where your coach is coming from and he sounds like he means well. but everyone else is either really rude or really stupid. if it keeps bothering you, you could try asking people to stop (maybe they don't realize what they're doing?)

    +1, if they're making fun of your weight, then they're dicks. 5'3 and 125 lbs is perfectly fine.
    the guy who called you fatty is also a dick. you should kick him in the face.

    When I went to bed last night I remembered another incident this week. It was on Monday, and I had an OM meeting to go to. I stopped by our mini-mart and picked up Mountain Dew then went to my metting. Everyone was already there when I got there. When I walked in with the Mountain Dew I heard one of my teammates and they were like "Jeesh Giselle! I thought you were suppose to be runner! You're going to get fat before you know it." Ok, they didn't say I was fat, but they said I would. And it was my 2nd Mountain Dew since July...no biggie. Heck, they had no room to be talking because they were sitting there eating doritos & drinking Pepsi. Jeesh!

    im 5'5 and i weight 127......
    but my friend is 5'4 and weighs 101 but she has a realllllly small frame, so she doesnt really look gross, so i guess it depends on your frame
    ..on the other hand, my 5'6 friend weighs 96 and she's grossly anorexic, so i guess it just depends.


    and in your old hurdle pictures you are all muscle, so its prolly muscle weight.

    your friend probably doesn't have a whole lot of muscle at all. because muscle weighs more that fat
    and your friends that criticise you for being fat...well i'm guesssing you are a lot more fit than them and could beat all of them in a race, so it really doesn't matter what your weight is

    and maybe, when they say..omg you're gunna get fat: maybe they're being sarcastic seeing as it is only your 2nd mounten dew since july
    idk, just an idea.
    but seriously...i bet you're fine. don't starve yourself or do anything stupid

    ^^ i agree, they're just getting to you. i joke with my friends all the time about becoming fat. theyre probably kidding, but if they're not then they are mental. youre a runner and you excersize, eat whatever the hell you want. haha. but the whole coach thing making sure your not getting soda, mine would do the same thing. during off season he still will come up to us in lunch sometimes and make sure were not buying soda or energy drinks.
