Im Fat. I wasnt always fat （which obviously implies that I was once physically fit）. I dont plan on being fat forever. And while packing on the pounds is not something I would recommend to others， its not something to be feared either.

I was a skinny little runt of a kid growing up. I was always the smallest on my sports teams， both in height and girth. My body started to fill out around my senior year of high school. But while the other student athletes were hitting the gym （and their dietary supplements）， I shied away from unnecessary exertion and instead turned to writing and music.

By my sophomore year at college， Id gained “the freshman fifteen” and then some. My mom， noticing my plumpness on one of her visits， gave me an Ab Roller for my birthday （thx mom）. Since then， my weight and shape have fluctuated from “ripped with a six-pack” to “round with a keg.”But I must say that my level of happiness has been relatively unaffected by how fat Ive been over the years， seeing as how Im presently both fat and happy， though not happy to be fat.

Why I Never Weigh Myself Anymore follows a young girl who grew up wanting to gain weight， and reluctantly ends up getting her wish. I Was A Fat Kid—And I Finally Understand Why shows how growing up overweight can affect someones entire outlook on life. And When Your Mother Says Shes Fat is a letter that reads as the confession of a daughters past misconceptions.

Just because youre overweight （or otherwise different） doesnt mean youre any less important or beautiful than the“normal looking” person right next to you. I guess the moral of the story is： Beauty is in the eye of the beholder， and happiness is in the heart of the beholder.

我很胖。我也不是一直都這么胖的（很明顯，這句話(huà)暗示了我曾經(jīng)體型健美）。我也沒(méi)打算就這么一直胖下去。增重長(zhǎng)胖并不是我想向諸君推薦做的事，但這也并非什么好懼怕的事。

小時(shí)候，我是個(gè)又瘦又小的孩子。我一直都是運(yùn)動(dòng)隊(duì)里最小的那個(gè)，無(wú)論是身高還是體型。我的身子到了高二的時(shí)候才開(kāi)始長(zhǎng)肉。不過(guò)，當(dāng)其他學(xué)生運(yùn)動(dòng)員投身健身房（和服用調(diào)節(jié)飲食的補(bǔ)充劑）時(shí)，我卻不愛(ài)虛耗體力，只管把精力投向?qū)懽骱鸵魳?lè)當(dāng)中。

到我大二那年，我的體重增加了“新生15磅”，日后更是愈加嚴(yán)重。我媽媽在某次探訪(fǎng)中發(fā)現(xiàn)我“發(fā)?！焙螅土艘桓备共拷∩砥鹘o我作為生日禮物（謝啦媽?zhuān)?。從那時(shí)起，我的體重和體型就起起落落，時(shí)而“現(xiàn)出六塊腹肌”，時(shí)而又“掛著個(gè)水桶”。但我必需說(shuō)，這些年來(lái)，我的快樂(lè)水平并沒(méi)有因?yàn)樽约旱姆逝殖潭榷兴绊憽？纯次椰F(xiàn)在，盡管對(duì)自己的肥胖感到不滿(mǎn)，但我還是又胖又快樂(lè)的。

《生命不能承受之“重”》講述了一位年輕女子成長(zhǎng)過(guò)程中一直希望能增加體重，最后卻不情愿地得償所愿了?！杜滞扌了崾罚何业呐?，誰(shuí)的錯(cuò)？》展示了成長(zhǎng)路上體重超標(biāo)如何影響到了一個(gè)人對(duì)人生的整體看法。而《給媽媽的信：你很“肥”，但很美！》則是一封女兒坦陳過(guò)去錯(cuò)誤觀念的告白信。

僅僅因?yàn)殚L(zhǎng)得胖（或者說(shuō)與眾不同）并不意味著你的重要性和美麗比不上身邊“長(zhǎng)相正?！钡娜?。我想這個(gè)故事的寓意是：情人眼里出西施，快意自在親愛(ài)心。

我悔恨啊，春天沒(méi)減肥，夏天沒(méi)減肥，長(zhǎng)膘的秋天、冬天來(lái)了，我只能徒傷悲了～

我很肥嗎？這個(gè)問(wèn)題，我得兜個(gè)圈子跟你說(shuō)。當(dāng)我們的Jesse童鞋大談“肥并快樂(lè)著”的時(shí)候，我也禁不住發(fā)出“Im fat TOO”的感嘆，結(jié)果被他大罵“CRAZY”。然而，每每當(dāng)我翻弄一兩年前那些現(xiàn)今已經(jīng)無(wú)法穿下的衣褲時(shí)，那種“由儉入奢易”的痛苦，把我折磨得體無(wú)完膚。

胖與瘦的準(zhǔn)繩很難定奪，但眼下無(wú)非就這三個(gè)標(biāo)準(zhǔn)：健康標(biāo)準(zhǔn)、個(gè)人標(biāo)準(zhǔn)和社會(huì)標(biāo)準(zhǔn)。肥胖對(duì)健康的危害，相信大家早已被醫(yī)生們嚇得夠嗆，不多說(shuō)了。就個(gè)人而言，身材的困惑更多的是對(duì)于“那些年”的迷戀。而社會(huì)和世俗的看法才最讓人聞風(fēng)喪膽。

如今，減肥已成了一種通病。多虧了時(shí)尚界的吹捧，讓那些晾衣架似的超模成了大家爭(zhēng)相模仿的對(duì)象，人們對(duì)身材的要求近乎苛刻，相反地，那些“非主流”身材受到變本加厲的攻擊，殘忍程度簡(jiǎn)直可以殺人于無(wú)形。于是乎，體重超標(biāo)的減，沒(méi)有超標(biāo)的也在減，妹紙們個(gè)個(gè)神經(jīng)兮兮，生怕自己淪為別人口中的“肥婆”。

其實(shí)，“瘦”就一定快樂(lè)嗎？“胖”就注定悲催嗎？這個(gè)世界，除了胖瘦外，標(biāo)準(zhǔn)還有千萬(wàn)條，我們是否要全部達(dá)標(biāo)了才能快樂(lè)？有時(shí)候，我對(duì)著鏡子，卻在迷惘自己過(guò)的是誰(shuí)的人生。

人生匆匆?guī)资辏蛟S嘗試放寬心，我們就能過(guò)上一個(gè)不一樣的人生。
