We all have our fat days..

But Jeebs!

I have mentioned before I was a size 12 in past days, don't get me wrong this isn't "fat" but it did not suit me. I'm quite the short arse you would say!

I thought I would show you my size 12 days :) Can't keep you lot from a giggle!

(I'm breathing in pretty madly here haha)
(I'm sitting up very straight, look at those rolls!)
As you see, still me but with a bit more chunk-a-dunk!

Now I do have a bit of a story behind my weight :/ It's not the happiest! SO If you're already down or don't want to get down then you should possibly stop reading...

What a statement.. who the hell wants to get down... Quite the dafty Kirsty!

Anyway, I don't like to blame my past on the way I am now but it is probably connected in some way.
I arrived at high school a normal, happy, bubbly girl.. A tad shy but still friendly.
First day I find myself in a class with no-one from my last school... So I went up to the girls sitting in a group and said "Hi I'm Kirsty :)" To which they responded "Go away" :(
These girls (Just my luck) became the most popular of my year so decided to pick on the weird kid, moi... The whole school got hold of this and the general comments were "You're fat" Blah blah blah.. I wasn't.. but hey.
I would walk into my class and they would say "you're so ugly, kill yourself. I don't want to look at you" They would put plastic bags over my head and all would hold me down, I couldn't breathe and fainted a couple of times. I, of course got beaten cause the "bruises would make me look better" The girls would use the toilet then do the classic and shove my head down it...... Once they nailed my hands to the desk. Just general horrible stuff.. I had an awful time.. For a good 5 years and it got worse.. 
The only thing I thought I could change was my weight.. So I made myself sick.. a lot.
 I tried not eating but I'm too much of a greedy bugger haha! I did that for the majority of the five years.. I honestly didn't think there was a problem with it, but of course there was. I got very unhealthy and weak, I tore up my insides.. I was a mess. I spent a lot of time in hospital, they told me if I continue I probably wont be able to have children.. Strange for a young girl but that was what made me think the most.. 

On to the chunky lass!
This is of course when I stopped. I was told I would gain weight, as my body would grab on and store every little thing I swallowed, my metabolism had slowed right down.. I put on about 2 stone in a short amount of time... If I stuck to salads and everything It wouldn't of been so dramatic but like I said I'm a greedy bugger!

I was pretty disgusted with my self and slipped up a few times, I'm not going to lie I have slipped up in the last year also.. But I'm really getting better.. I'm learning how to manage my weight.

I honestly hated myself with a passion for so long, I wouldn't even look in a mirror and when I caught a glimpse I burst into tears. When I met Matt I thought there was no chance in hell someone like him would be attracted to me but still spoke to him.. I thought, well I'm probably never get to speak to a gorgeous man again so I'll enjoy it while it lasts! It then ended up pretty noicely as you know!

This blog alone has given me a massive confidence boost! So thank you to all you wonderful girls :) I'm sorry I've been so rubbish, I will pick up just everything in Scotland is going a bit mad! I'm still taking photos I'm just having difficulties!

Right well I'm off, Hope I didn't bore those who read on too much!
I hope you all have a lovely weekend :)

  2. Oh my gosh Kirsty, you poor little thing. I'm so so sorry to hear about all your horrible happenings at school. Kids are so cruel. I've been really lucky all my life and have never been bullied or been a bully.

    I find that kind of behaviour disgusing!! And in your case it sounds like it was really extreeme. I'm so happy that youve risen above all this and come out a strong stunning person at the other end of it all.

    You're an inspiration!

  8. I can't believe how the people at school treated you, that's awful and it's purely out of jealousy why they did that. You are beautiful! xx

  9. Wow, that was a really awful story and I honestly can't believe that a gorgeous (!!) girl like you could ever be considered the "weird one"! It just goes to show how absolutely insane high school bullies can be, and look at how amazing you turned out :) Glad you're back xxxx

    Glad to know you're learning how to deal with your weight. Actually I think you would look great at any weight because you're a very pretty girl. The most important thing is to be healthy regardless of the number on the scale.

  14. Oh my god Kirsty I had no idea... well, about the bullying.. I can't lie, I actually had an inkling that you may have suffered with bulimia at some point just from little clues in your posts sometimes. I guess it takes one to know one eh?
    I cannot believe anybody could consider treating another person like that, I just want to give you a massive hug. I wish I could take all that back and make sure you don't have to go through it.
    I know everyone is going to say things like this, and you've probs heard it a bajillion times from the people that you love, but you're absolutely beautiful. Not just on the outside, but you're a lovely, lovely person too. It really comes out in your blogs and when we've spoken on FB, you're so genuine. Matt is so lucky to have you as his girlfriend, just as you're lucky and deserve a lovely bloke like him. You actually looked just as gorgeous at a size 12 as now!
    I was bulimic for 4 years after my grandad died, and I managed to beat it. It took about 4 years after stopping to FULLY stop.. like you say, it's so easy to have slip ups :( I'm really not sure the last time I slipped up, but it was over a year ago. I weighed 13st and was a size 16 after stopping when I was 18, and I managed to control my eating, start exercising, and learn to look at my body and my lifestyle differently. I'm a size 8-10 now and weigh just under 8 and a half stone, I'm much happier.. but not because i;m thinner, because I have control over my life. I;m glad you posted this, and if you ever want a chat... well you know where I am :)

  15. I think you are beautiful, and you are not fat at all! Size 12 is not fat :-) Ha isn't that a book? lol.
    Those girls probably just made people feel bad because they were secretly insecure little bit*hes.
    I am very glad that you got your confidence back, because girls really can be terrible. I bet it was really just out of jealousy.YOu should not have had to go through all that :-(

  16. Aww girlies I'm so glad I've had such a positive and lovely response! I was a bit worried to be honest. You all make me feel so lovely :)

    It really shouldn't have happened to anyone, It was disgusting. Part of me is glad it did happen to me because maybe others wouldn't have been as strong.. It shouldn't have happened full stop though.

    Thank you again each and every one of you :) xxxxxxx

  18. And i thought my problems with bullies & such were bad..that's absolutely horrible. You seem to be so much stronger because of it, although you may have slip-ups sometimes, you seem to get right back on track! You're so brave to share this with us sweetie, it must've been hard to have to go back to that, it's so inspiring though! Size 12 isn't fat, you honestly look stunning at any weight!
    If you ever need help or someone to talk to, you know you always have us :)
    Stay strong Kirsty ♥ :) xxxx

  20. this post touched a nerve - i also used to be bullied, but not to this extent. It makes me sad that people did that to you? they were obviously very unhappy with their lives. It must have been due to jealousy.. you are seriously so, so stunning, and you looked great as a size 12 but you seem happier now. I hope that karma has bitten them!! Girls can be so horrible - i was bullied about my weight for 4 years, and I wasnt even that big, just very shy and quiet :( You seem so happy and strong now :) It's still very sad that you went through it xx

  22. OMG I can't believe those girls at your school! How awful!
    I wasn't really a popular kid at school and had a few things said to me but was nothing compared to yours.
    You're so brave to go through all that and come out the other side!
    You're a gorgeous, lovely girl! And so glad that this blog/bf has boosted your confidence xx
