How Did People Treat You Differently After You Gained Or Lost A Lot Of Weight?

People deserve respect regardless of their size.

Although there's definitely been some improvement in the last few decades, women in society are still treated VERY differently based on the size and shape of their bodies, and it's absolutely not okay.

Or, maybe you've noticed over the years that when you're thinner, you get more job offers, and when you're not as thin, the job offers stop coming (yes, this is a thing and it's absolutely horrible).
