An Annoying Question Asked To Skinny People
WHY ARE YOU SO SKINNY? This is a question asked to skinny folks more than most imagine. When someone asks me this question, the first thought that comes to mind is, “MY FAMILY EATS EVERYTHING FROM ME!” What comes out of my mouth, “God made me this way.” Now, as I stand there answering this annoying question, I often wonder what the person would say or do if I responded with any other response. I mean, what if my answer was, “I’m sick.” Would they begin apologizing? Would it even be a sincere

Hold ‘Em Tight and Be Cute While You Get Your Fitness On!
Are you looking for functional, but cute sports bras to exercise in? When I first started working out, I grabbed any ole thing I could find from my dresser. Why? Cause I didn’t want to invest in workout clothes. And that’s ok. Especially if you’re unsure about your dedication of hitting the gym, pavement, bike or whatever your choice of exercise is. If you don’t want to purchase any other workout clothes, you should at least grab yourself a cute sports bra for your workouts. Trust me; YOU FEEL A DIFFERENCE!

You Need To Eat A Burger
Why do people think it’s ok to make comments about a skinny person’s body or ask if we ever eat or “whisper” (cause we hear you) to your friend, “She needs to eat a burger or something!” Cause we ALL know if someone said, “YOU ARE A FAT ASS” all hell would break loose. And just so you know, we EAT and can probably eat you under the table. Being told to eat a burger is offensive. It is not taken as a compliment like so many people want to claim they mean.

Growing Up Skinny Isn’t Sunshine And Roses As Many Assume
Most people think of country folks eating lots of meat and potatoes for most meals. That is true to a degree. My family served bacon, eggs, gravy, and biscuits for breakfast. I had regular lunches as a child. You know the norm…peanut butter and jelly, ham sandwiches, the occasional fast food joint. Dinner we had tacos, steak, etc. Pinto beans, cornbread, and salmon patties were every Wednesday at my granny’s.

It most certainly didn’t come without hurt feelings and…
