I fatten myself when I was eight years old.

While my slender older sister and friends were outside playing, I would be in the house eating a lot; even when I wasn’t hungry. I was around 70-lbs. By the time school started in the fall, I gotten fat. I gained 35-pounds. My sister started calling me fatty and I would buck her down with my round belly ( I didn’t start the actual Belly Bucking until I was twelve).

My mother tried to put me on a diet to lose weight. She kept a tape measure for measuring my expanding waistline. The doctor told my mother that it’s just a weight spurt and I would lose the weight. My mother was also slender just like my sister.

I became the younger fat sister to my slender older sister.

Since I work at a library, I keep snacks in my desk drawer.

My mother reacted to my weight gain when I was eight years old. She noticed that I was getting a starter belly and my thighs were plumping out. Her reaction was you”re getting too fat and to go on a diet. The diets never worked out.

I was the only one in the family that was overweight.
