[quote=Anonymous]For all of my adult life, outside of pregnancy/postartum, I have been a size 4/6. Always treated well in public settings, men flirted with me etc. I just thought this was normal. After a late pregnancy loss I got pregnant again, so I was pregnant for nearly a year and a half (not kidding). It was a difficult pregnancy and I developed gestational diabetes and became insulin resistant. After having my baby I could not lose weight no matter what I tried and hovered around a size 12/14. Recently I’ve gone down several sizes and am now about an 8. The difference in how I was treated when I was bigger and how I’m treated now is night and day. I was almost ignored, or treated as stupid/ignorant (?), and just generally not treated as well as when I was thin. Now that I’m becoming thinner again, men are flirty/check me out and people are nicer to me. It is such a mindf*** and really disappointing. Why are people like this?[/quote]
