Being accused of having a fake ID because I am 40 pounds lighter than I was when the picture on it was taken
On the flip side, having to be careful about what I say around other girls because let's face it, girls often assume other girls who they see as more attractive than themselves are threats, bitches, and not to be trusted.
Having to be careful about how friendly I am to men because they will take basic polite friendliness as an invitation to come onto me.

(This one really bothers me, actually. It also makes me livid because it makes it so very crystal clear that 90% of the men I interact with are only interested in me based on how I look. This was NEVER a problem when I weighed 50 pounds more).
My work bag actually bruises me where it touches my hip bones (pelvic bones? I don't know my anatomy....) if it is too full.
Waking up with a sore ass after being at the Zephyr all night and sitting on their hard wooden benches with skinny butt cheeks.
Even when wearing professional clothes and walking down the sidewalk toward the building I work in on campus, getting cat-called and whistled at.
Having formerly worn a D cup but now having barely A-sized boobs
Being 26 years old but having to shop in the Juniors section in department stores because women's clothes are too big.

Eating two helpings of chicken at a dinner party, then spending the night in the bathroom with a stomach full of misery, not from food poisoning, but because I ate too much.

Having all of my favorite tshirts become oversized night dresses

Always having to take the middle seat in a car full of people
Constantly being patted on the head (because I'm "cute" now)
