Then this changed to her threatening them that she would sit on them if they continued with the bullying. Meghan told Vanessa about trying to lose weight, but she was not really getting into it, as she had to be convinced. She at first said that she was fine with her body, but that was just to brush off the story, as she was not fine.
She knew she would have difficulties following up with the routine that they would be given from the meals to everything else. Knowing that it would make them get an eating routine sheet that would exclude lots of fast food. Vanessa revealed how she was once in a gas station, and she heard a man insult her by calling her bad names. This really messed with her feelings, making her go back to the car to cry. She added that people find big people gross and dirty, as they can’t wash.
