What does it feel like to grab my stomach and not be able to pull a fistful of fat away from my gut? What does it feel like to have my thighs apart and not always grating at each other, ruining every pair of pants I have ever owned? What does it feel like to know that every boutique and clothing store has my size there? What does it feel like to say my size out loud and not be embarrassed? What does it feel like to be on other girls’ “thinspo” blogs? What does it feel like to be thin?

10 reasons I want to be thin

paleskin-icyhands:

  • to run without feeling the fat bounce around, holding me back
  • to make my already broad shoulders look smaller, giving my whole body a daintier physique 
  • to wear knee socks without cutting off the circulation of my legs, or even leaving that red line from them being too tight
  • to show off those amazing collarbones by wearing tank tops, without worrying about chubby arms
  • to never have chafing between my legs
  • to never feel overheated because my hands are my own personal ice packs
  • to start wearing skirts and tights, instead of having to wear jeans all the time because they feel like the only item of clothing that can cover up and hide my enormous thighs
  • to roll up my jacket / sweater sleeves without worrying about stretching them out because my arms will be just as delicate as my wrists
  • to be the perfect example of self control
  • to feel refreshed and free because I no longer weigh myself down
