Maintaining a healthy weight

Reply in thread

I think there’s something about “skinny shaming” that gets under my skin. I understand people don’t think it’s a problem because where the insult being called skinny? But it’s just… don’t bring it up to me anyway. As long as I’m healthy I’m happy!

It’d be 100% different if it was coming from a place of concern. I’m a small girl- I get it. I also naturally have a very small waist and wide hips which makes my hip bones look more prominent… I get it.

I just don’t like being asked if I’m on drugs because I’m thin.

What do you think of the art?

I’m self taught- besides a few YouTube tutorials here and there, I like trying to figure things out.

I really enjoy creating. I’ve never been good at drawing and only half good at painting. But I’m realising not everything I have to create needs to be good- sometimes it’s about the process.

Burn out is so real. It’s important to enjoy what you’re doing.

I create for me- so I don’t care if my paintings aren’t all there. I enjoyed painting, and I’m proud of myself for sitting down and doing it.

Thank you for your advice- it comes from a good place.

I am so sorry that happened to you.

I’m lucky I’ve found a partner who I trust and who treats me better than I expect for myself.

You are an incredible person with such value. I hope others see that and you don’t settle for less
