In 2011 I weighed 205 pounds and I drank a ton of soda. I was in a class with skinny guys and girls. In English class one time we were having a lesson of some sort and the teachers aide said to the class "you guys this guy I knew stopped drinking soda and lost 10 pounds right away."

I felt like that comment was directed towards me since I was the only heavy one in the class and the only one who drank a lot of soda. I also know when theres a problem with one kid you have to address the issue to the entire class you can't just single one kid out. My sister who is a teacher said this too.

The soda thing isn't even true. Since high school I dropped almost 80 pounds and I still drink soda regularly just not 5 cans a day.

Was my school fat shaming me? Has anything similar ever happened to anyone else?

People wonder why I'm so particular about my weight now and its partially because being so heavy as a 14 year old until I was 24 really messed with me.
