15 things Skinny girls are tired of hearing...

    I can remember when I was younger I barely eat garri but sometimes I did with my favourite soup (egusi). I was selective with food I preferred eating Jollof rice and fried plantains or porridge plantains. On Sundays, I would wolf down two plates of rice in a few minutes with my spoon swooping yet I was still lanky.

   As a teen who was skinny with match stick legs I get tormenting comments from my class mates about how much sickly I looked. I know that feeling when you are the only girl in class without big breasts and didn't have that strong, hard muscled rump about to burst the seams of your tight jeans when you wear them.

   Skinny Girls are tired of hearing this things.
