Reply from shanene, Age 15 - 06/19/07 - IP#: 66.229.108.xxx Gurl that's exactly what happened and is still happening to me. 2 yrs ago, I went to an all white school and all my friends were skinny as a stick (literally)but they would make sneaky rude remarks abt how big and thick I was and saying that "All black ppl are like that so technacally it's not fully your fault ur big". Well when i heard that at first, i let it slide but the rude comments kept going so I stop being their friends and made new friends who didn't care about my weight.I moved out-of state 1 month later b/c my mom's job and ppl are still rude to me but this summer i'm trying to work my butt off so when I get thinner, they'll regret they ever said those remarks abt me. All you should do is ignore them until you get to your goal so they'll be jealous of you and they won't talk abt you anymore.If you keep listening to their rude remarks,you'll lose focus on your goal and you'll give up. Well Good Luck!!! Just be patient :)
