I want to address something that came to my attention. I mentioned somewhere that I have been at home since March, and someone replied with "hahaha someone is going to get fat". Growing up, I used to be overweight, and this comment was triggering. (thread)

Since March, I had to accept that there will inevitably be weight gain during the length of this pandemic. I'm still trying to accept that, but I used to be someone who did their own groceries, meal prepped, and chose what they would or would not consume. I was also working out -

- regularly at the gym, I was getting in 25,000 - 30,000 steps a day. Now, I accept whatever food I get. If I had to tell my parents what to get me, they would be at the grocery store forever. I would rather them be safe (in and out of the store), and get whatever is most -

- convenient for them. In terms of fitness, it's really the last thing on my mind to go for a run or hop on an exercise machine because of how intense school is. I'm also walking 500 - 2,000 steps per day. Not a fan of that at all, especially since I love to run, move, etc -

- but this is just how it is! The point is, if it isn't something I absolutely NEED to know, keep the topic of my weight to yourself. In fact, perhaps don't think about it at all. Other people's weight is no one's business, especially if I don't know you. Just don't. Thanks!/rant

Not that anyone cares, but I'm not kidding when I say it took me a long time to teach myself the importance of health. So again, not being in control of that is really damaging, and the extra comments are not needed. This is a 15 year difference. Bye.
