Zero, you aren't fat.
Trust me.
[QUOTE=Lollipoopdeck;49406221]Charing Cross, in Glasgow, the sandford clinic?
Thats where I've been going, I should hopefully be getting my blood taken in January.
I hope everything turns out alright for you.[/QUOTE]
Ahh, nah the one in London/Hammersmith.
Good luck! I've heard GIC in Scotland tend to be a little better than the ones here down south.

My partner said I should probably complain to some sort of group about the way the GIC have treated me, considering they lost my referral twice, and have now lost either 8 viles of my blood or the results from said blood tests (and never notified me).
I know this sort of thing is common practice but I'm pretty suicidal, struggling with money, University, and general living, so this is like, the last thing I need from my medical health care.
you should definitely complain, in public if you have to.
does GIC have an active facebook page

Not that I know of, I'm pretty sure they do not. There's a few groups for people who're patients of the GIC, but they all have similar negative dealings, so ranting about it on there is basically preaching to the choir.

She's not gonna listen.
Even if you were fat, chubby girls are fucking adorable >:T
opinions, it's their body. you can't just tell someone to embrace what they have even if it's the opposite of what they want.

But you can tell them to not be so hard on themselves while they don't embody what they want, because they're still beautiful.
Legit how do you decide on a name?
I swear I change my mind every week or two what I'd want it to be.
Find something that has a lot of meaning to you.
The name I chose was already chosen for me by my mom and dad, but I wasn't born a girl so they used a boy name.

What you find beautiful, they may find undesirable. Some people tell my that I look good with facial hair, and all I say is "That's nice." But I really dislike it, so I work to avoid having it.

That's what I would do, if I ever became transgendered. I mean, no other name has any other lenience for me. I could go from Patrick -> Patricia, but that's lame as fuck, and Patricia is a boring name to me.
I mean, my dad said I would have been "Heather." That's a pretty great name.
when i became part of the transgendered my quality of life went way up

These are literally, "Stop being positive and trying to teach people to love themsleves they should just wallow in the own shit," are you both fucking for real right now.
Furthermore Zero's situation is not as black white and you guys make it out to be. I'm not going to say anything because that's her business but know telling a person like her that she's allowed to feel the way she feels is seriously detrimental to her well being.
oh man i stopped worrying about how chubby i was a while ago and im just so pretty and adorable the way I am, though i still work on being healthy and happy and being thinner would be nice but being thin or "pretty" in society's eyes isn't a thing I worry about at all anymore and it's just
so nice not feeling shit or lesser because im overweight
[QUOTE=aussiedropbear;49411776]Legit how do you decide on a name?

just try it out with your friends and see if it sounds "you". As vague as it sounds you'll know if a name feels right. Then just have the courage to stick with it.

Not really? It's more of a "it's okay to not like body types and it's okay to not like yourself for having that body type"? They're more saying that is less about body [I]positivity [/I]and more about body [I]acceptance[/I]. Accepting the body you currently have for what it is but also accepting that there are things you can do, steps you can take, to mold it into something that is (closer to) the body you want.

You're making our statements way more black and white. What happens too often is people go "hey, I don't like thing about myself," and they get in response "What? Nonsense, thing is great! Thing is beautiful!" as in a way to tell that person that they should be happy with what they have, rather than change themselves for what [I]they may deem[/I] as the better.
Please don't put words in my mouth/twist my intent.
In this case it's not good to say it please stop.

Do you ever want to stop causing drama? First it was the GTA thread with the whole "friendly" hackers thing, then it was the GTA thread again over non-drama, and now here? Not to mention the countless times you've caused drama in previous iterations of this thread.
Like seriously, things go fine until you come in with your hoity-toity, high and mighty "HEY YOU'RE WRONG/STUPID" posts and send everyone into a tizzy over nothing. I mean, you were just proven wrong and your response was "WELL IT'S STILL WRONG SO DON'T".

I never said they shouldn't work to make themselves what they want. I'm simply saying they don't have to hate on themselves so much while they don't embody it yet. If you are overweight and want to be skinnier, don't go bashing on yourself for being overweight. It isn't motivation to lose weight, it's just fodder for hurting your self-esteem. Yes, you should absolutely work to your goal, but there is no reason to treat yourself poorly because you haven't yet reached that goal.
on a less pointless argument note, I got a new outfit!
