@minsugatrasher + gaining it again makes me panicked that I'll be "ugly" again and not good enough to receive compliments. I hope you recovered from your accident though, people really don't know how to be empathetic

I've been having trouble with healthy eating habits ever since I was a child but it's so devastating to me that I just recently started thinking about eating less to STAY skinny because people continuously complimented me on my weight loss
@minsugatrasher I'm so so sorry people are commenting on that as well :( I've been gaining weight again because of chronic joint pain, I can't even sit up on some days so I'm stuck in bed when I'm not at work. It feels horrible when you've never been praised for your body until you lost weight
And I genuinely don't understand why it's so normalized to comment on people's weight loss when it's unclear if they deliberately wanted to lose said weight. I received most of those compliments from complete strangers at work who regularly shop at my store
I lost a lot of my chubbiness these past 2 years, since moving to a new house with a functioning kitchen led us to eat more freshly cooked meals, rather than processed food, and the number of compliments I've received for my weight loss really fucked with my brain
