Hey Tara, I really enjoyed your article! I've gained some weight over the past month due to restricted physical activity (working and studying from home) and stress, which resulted in me overeating a lot.

By no means am I 'fat' now but I don't feel comfortable in my body and it's not a nice feeling. And I don't think you deserve these hate comments shaming you for the way you feel just because these women weigh more than you. I can see how they have been triggered by your words as they seem to be happy if they were at your weight but to me, it doesn't make sense to argue that you can only call yourself fat once you reached a certain number. 'Fat' is a derogatory term for being overweighed and does not start at weighing 200 pounds.

If you feel uncomfortable in your body and want to lose that weight again, then that's okay.
