How to handle criticism or insults?
Hi, I used to be 320 pounds, lost weight over time by working in a warehouse with no breaks (aka starving) and becoming more active. I made it to 280 and decided to start eating better and made it down to 260.
I feel really good, feel attractive. I've even had a few people flirt with me recently, it makes me feel good. Jusy today a guy was flirting with me. I mean, it doesnt happen very often, but it makes me feel good.
Then just now I was walking home after an event, and as I crossed the street a girl (being driven by their parent) in her car yelled out something, it was a little hard to hear and it was long and she was getting farther away, but it was something along the lines of her saying she would be ashamed to show her face if she looked like me and said I looked like an Elephant.
I had my mom insult my weight for years, and had been called a fatass by one kid who called everyone a fatass, so I never was bullied for my weight. Ever. I can't really remember a single time actually. I feel lucky
But... ouch. It hurt so bad. I stopped walking and hid behind a bush and cried, calling my boyfriend to come pick me up instead. I remember when she said it I just pointed towards my ear, and she seemed displeased as she probably thought I couldn't hear her. But once she was out of sight I didn't hold it well.
I feel so gross. I just cut my hair today and gave myself bangs, but it was hot so I had my hair up, so my bangs were down. Was it the hair??? Or is it the weight? I feel so hurt, please help me. How do I handle rude remarks from people? How can I stop feeling gross? I went home and Im in bed. I dont want to get up. Like ever again, I just want to feel cute. I want to feel like someone is attracted to me. I hate myself
