Biggest Pet Peeve about TB? Aww posts about being skinny from bumpies about themselves. Hate them. I cannot stand people that feel the need to aw themselves for being thin. I am not an overweight person (I weigh 125 and am 5' 4") but know people who are and know that it is so hurtful to them when people brag about how skinny they are. I even hate the posts from the tri-boards about weight loss after pregnancy or how skinny they are during pregnancy. Really?!?! Who cares.
