Nobody will ever love you Because your overweight Nobody will ever love you Because you look like a whale Nobody will ever love you So your family says Nobody will ever love you Until you weigh at least 160 Nobody will ever love you Because your a 250 lbs. cow Nobody will ever love you So your family says Nobody will ever love you They repeat over and over Nobody will ever love you Until you lose that weight Nobody will ever love you So your family says So I guess Nobody will ever love me Because my weight So my family says Cold hands means a warm heart |

So I guess Nobody will ever love me Because my weight So my family says My thinking is...your guess is wrong. Our outer appearance has nothing to do with the person we really are. Love yourself first, just the way you are, then others will love you for the light that shines within. hugs, Chris "Hope" is the thing with feathers- |

May I just echo my sister Nightshade's response? She took the words right out of my mouth. Sad, but often a true write as far as parents saying such cruel things. You have to love yourself first. ~Hugs~ ~Time has cast a spell on you, |

Julie? Just call me "nobody"... and this is just devastatingly honest pain, simply written yet piercing. |

"nobody" is a jerk stuck on foolish delusions of their own making... and totally wrong.... you'll see. |

I can understand in small ways of what I've been through. with those subtle and not-so-subtle comments that you felt long before they said. But they are so so soooo wrong. And they are the ones hurting. I told someone the other day I'd rather be fat and happy with it then skinny as a pencil and never satisfied. Everyone loves santa, right? I've seen a glimpse of your heart, Julie, you are beautiful. And that smile ..yea, beautiful. Always, Alyssa - And so it was that time stood still - |

I love you, Julie....because just from the glimpse I've seen of you through these pages at PIP, you are a very sweet, sensitive, loving, compassionate, and caring person. You are very special and have a very good heart. You know what else, Julie? Other people see this, too, from the responses. So, one day there will be someone really special who will love you for who you are on the inside, because you are very, very special, sweet friend. Ethel |

Julie, Simply not true! My twin sister (250+) (I, on the other hand was so thin a stiff wind blew me off a bridge!, story for a different time, and not skinny now, for sure!...) She met and married one of the nicest guys you'd want to meet...her weight was NEVER a problem to him (he was average height and weight) sadly he died suddenly, and four years later she met and married another really nice man, gentleman and a hunk...Mmmmmmm! He was with her til she passed away. Weight has nothing to do with it. Today, I spent about four hours with a lady who can barely make it through a doorway and her husband. and he adores and worships her....(he is average W & H). They both have (had) a happiness within and more importantly loved other people, quite outgoing.... so, cultivate that and men will be drawn to you..... Hugs, Pat ..without surrender, be on good terms with all persons.. |

Well Julie, The saddest thing is that if you are hearing this...they aren't seeing you. Couldn't find a more beautiful young woman I think. ThisDiamond |

None of it is true. What is life without poetry and adventure? |

A weighty subject, Julie. Keep your head up high, and look past those put-downs. I'd be a lot more concerned about the health issues than about love. There are many people in love who are outside those so-called perfect weight charts. Did you know you have a really terrific smile? |

I'd rather not have a family than to have one like that! |

(tears fall down my cheeks) Oh Julie, I hope this certainly isn't related to your own family, sweet friend, families should be much more encouraging than that and the worst thing I'd want is to make my children in the future feel bad about themselves and if I was concerned compassionately talk it over with them and tell them how much I love them! (sad sih) This is very heartaching, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Julie, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |
