In the immortal words of Elanor Roosevelt; "no one can make you feel inferior without your consent"...i'm a freshman boy of almost 400 pounds, and i will NOT let the tauntings and abuse from the jocks and bullies make ME feel in any way inferior to the "beautiful people" !! Ive stopped the school bullies from beating me up and stealing my lunch money, tripping me and spreading viscious rumours about me,and all the other things i endured at school......i told the cops when my school's administrators did nothing. They CANNOT hassle u and beat u up that is assult plain and simple.(Verbal name callings and verbal abuse ARE assult and quite illegal!!) Stand up for urselves,love yourselves and realize we ARE as good as the pretty thin people!! WE ARE !! believe and achieve, and NEVER stop trying to achieve your goals!! I'm down almost 50 pounds and have a loooooooooong way to go to achieve my weightloss goal, but i WILL do it, and so can all of u guys. PEACE and LOVE!! Non Illegitimati Corrunundrum........latin for never let the bastards drag u down.........be well all, and please fight for your rights and stand up for your freedom to lead a life free of abuse.... To all the boys and girls out there living the school life ive described, PLEASE do NOT just accept it when ur school's officials do nothing.....report it to the police and do anything to get it stopped!! then u can focus fully on your weight loss goals and achieve your dreams......Peace and full support from Alex (no longer called alex the blimp at school)
