I'm a 20 year old, 5'3", 175 lb woman. I lost about 25 lbs over the course of the last 2 years. My ultimate goal is 135 lbs.Not a lot, but enough to make me a tad bit more comfortable in my body. I have a very pear shaped body, and my lower belly pooches out in a way that I really dislike, and it shows through certain clothing too. My ultimate goal is to lose 30 lbs, and I'm aiming to lose it all by January.
Today I decided to stop making excuses and went for a run, seeing as I haven't been active for a couple weeks due to college stress and quarantine. I was at about .75 miles when I dropped an airpod. I picked it up but didn't want to put it back in my ear.
I keep walking and I hear a man call out, "hey, young lady, hey!" I ignore him and keep walking. He shouts, "Whatever, you fat anyway." He and his friend laugh as I walk past them and down the block. My ears were burning and I wanted to the ground to swallow me up.
Normally I don't let things like this bother me. I'm always working to improve myself. But something about that comment got to me, and I put my headphones back in and I teared up while walking home. I couldn't stop thinking about his comment.
Now I've had a couple hours to think, and I decided I won't let it bring me down. I'm not exercising or trying to look good for him or anyone other than myself, so that guy can go fuck himself.
