I just read a post called (pink whale) It inspired me to write this post..................................................................................... When I was 13 I weighed 225 lbs. I had braces,red hair, and to make myself look better I got a perm....what I ended up with was a POOFBALL!! So needless to say I was just beautiful! LOL!! *blushes* It was my first week of 6th grade and I had no friends,all the girls gave me dirty looks,..( I guess they thought my fat would rub off on them) And to top it off I had 3 of the cutest boys in the school..in my class! In class I would sit down and they would start sniffing the air and saying.." I smell fish...no..not fish....WHALE!" So that became my name...WHALE...After 2 months of constent put downs I started to starve myself and work out for hours and hours at a time. My parents took me to diffrent Dr's all the time, trying to find out why I was soo big! They kept telling me I just ate to much... So, I saw no weight loss after all my effort and I became sick, and wanted to die every day of my life. One night I took an overdoce and woke up 2 days later in the hospital...My heart stoped in the Ambulance and I almoast died. I left a note saying how I couldn't live with all the name calling. The Dr there found a problem....I had thyroied problems that were over looked, *Thank God for him* My parents took me out of school and placed me in a private school for the rest of the year! It was a class of 6 people and one teacher..I guess the kids and teacher were aware of my problem and everyone was nice to me!!! All that year and all summer I took my med's, ate right, and worked out. In less then a year I lost 130 lbs!!! My hair grew and my braces came off!! I was happy and slim and I was ready to face the public school again! I had butterflies in my stomach that morning on my way to school...I was so afraid.... My first class I sat in the back of the room while roll call was being done...My last name starts with an R so it took a while.....I scaned the room and saw one of the boys that hurt me so much.. he still looked the same. Then I saw who was sitting in front of me...the other one!..... When my name was called they both turned around and looked at me with surprize!! One of them smiled at me and said ...You have the same name as a fat chic that killed herself last year! I said ..Ohh really? He looked me up and down and smiled again and said..You might have her name but you sure dont have her looks! .... They were shocked to find out that I, indeed was her! They tryed for the rest of the year and even into High School, to try to make me like them....but the damage was done and I never spoke to them...LOL! The point of this story is that I was the same person the first year as I was the second,...but some people were to blind to see it..so to anyone that has ever been hurt like me...I want you to know there is hope, and in the end the mean, hurtfull people will get what they deserve. I know this was long but thank you for taking the time to read it... And to Queen Crazy...hang in there sweetie..
