Guest guest Posted April 15, 2003 Report Share Posted April 15, 2003 Hi all, Had an odd thing happen to me last week that I wanted to share... since you all would understand, although my dh looked at me like I was nuts when I told him. I was in a training class, sitting next to a young, pretty, skinny girl. We were across the table from a young, pretty, very MO girl at lunch. The skinny girl leans over to me and says " Look at HER, that's her 3RD piece of pizza " and shakes her head (referring to the MO girl). I was so taken aback, and what ran through my mind was " You know, I look thin on the outside, but I'm really MO on the inside " and I got as far as " You know ... " before the instructor stood up to start class. It was such an odd experience. The fact that I started to say that out loud to a total stranger, the fact that the skinny girl saw me as someone in the " thin person " category, and the fact that I got ticked off at " skinny girl " since I identified with the MO girl across the table. It was just an odd, surreal thing. Know what I mean? I wonder if I'll always be " MO on the inside " . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted April 15, 2003 Report Share Posted April 15, 2003 Me, too. It's a fatal disease momentarily in remission. And I usually DO make that statement. As kindly as possible, but my fave is, " I bet I outweighed her by 50# " . LOLOL! They usually drop their eyeballs & their jaws. (dang, that mean streak is still in me) Thanks, Vitalady, Inc.

Guest guest Posted April 15, 2003 Report Share Posted April 15, 2003 , I've been there a hundred times it seems, since my surgery. It is very upsetting. I have been on the other side of the table before. I make no secrets that I don't like that type of attitude. If they don't like it they can go away. I don't feel the need to explain to them why I don't like it. I don't believe in making fun of anyone...height, weight, skin color, religion, and on and on.

Guest guest Posted April 16, 2003 Report Share Posted April 16, 2003 I think I spent too many years feeling that way to shake it in only three year at a normal size. Last night I was telling a funny story to my family about going down to the store to get a Tootsie Roll (let's just leave that aspect of the story alone, shall we). And I accidentally grabbed a Three Musketeers which I had to give away since I don't care for them. They both have silver wrappers. Hubby asked how I could make that mistake, and I analyzed the thought process. I want a candy bar, but I am still MO in my mind, and don't want to appear to be a pathetic fat person spending a long time perusing the candy bars so people will think " she really does not need to eat that " etc. etc. So, I grab and run. The moral of the story? No, it's not that I might want to just skip the entire candy section! It's that even me - the most self-aware person in the world - still falls an unwitting victim to those tapes! Kate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
