The Big Question
Added 2024-01-12 22:25:20 +0000 UTCIt finally happened. I finally reached the point in my gains that a certain member of my close family asked why I am so big now.
βSo, Iβm just asking to understand. Your stomach is so huge now. You were so tight before, Iβm just curious what happened?β
I knew that the question was being asked from a standpoint of concern.
I immediately assured that i was not depressed or something like that.
βIβm just happier like this. My boyfriend likes me this way and I just feel better and Iβm enjoying food. Iβm not like sad or anything.β
βReally? People like that?β Followed by a mention of how if a woman looked like me, theyβd be bashed for it.
βYeah, lots of people do. Especially when I go out.β
βI just think if you lost some of your stomach you would look perfectβ
The conversation ended with them just saying that they were just making sure I was okay. I could tell they were still not on board with the fact that I was so large and was frankly annoyed that a family member was projecting their body insecurity onto me as well as their ideal aesthetics.
I left feeling better, actually relieved that I had gotten something I was admittedly nervous for done with.
PS. This holiday season has been filled with lots of new situations for me that have taken up my time. Once I get home I will be back in gainer mode and the scale will be climbing again.
