I definitely was the fat kid growing up. I don’t think I was ever the fatest in my grade. But I was a heavy boy.

I wasn’t fat until the family moved into a new school district and I was bullied by two of the neighborhood boys. I’m a single parent kid with just a mom.

Was chubby until I turned 15 then started track and field. Trimmed down nicely. One of the d!cks I went to school with wanted me to join the Marines with him. Well, I was in shape but not that in shape.

Then APs helped me put the weight back on at 23 years old.

I was the fat girl growing up, one of 2 fat girls in my school. Me and Porsche. She was a beautiful girl with long, honey colored hair and a very pretty face. I was a freckled, tomboy with red hair and I was always dirty because my Mom didn’t bathe us but once a week. We both got teased endlessly.

I was told that I was mid/high weight until 4 years old, then I had a gastroenteritis and after that I’ve always been very skinny.

Never, but when I was in school, you always had just the one fat kid in your class, the token fat kid. Now the pendulum has swung and now you have like one third of the class is fat.

I grew up wearing glasses so I was the token kid who wore glasses. But it was OK, because I still hung out with the coolest people in class and still did sports and roughhoused and was a very physical kid.

OMG I was also talked into taking Military Science by some jerk frat guy in college. I did not know that they pressure you into joining the military there. I had to write a letter and tell them that I was schizophrenic (before I was even diagnosed) to get out of being recruited.

I was a fat kid growing up too @anon99082702! I started running/dieting before 9th grade because I was boy crazy and sick of being ridiculed.
