SWEEPA 10
Like SES, I went through a chubby phase. Most of my life I've been quite small in height and weight, considered way underweight around late preschool years. but from the ages 8ish to 12 I was what everyone in my family called "fat". Didn't help I was short too I guess. It makes me self conscious even now, because I remember at my year 6 formal I was dubbed one of the no way girls. After that puberty set in and my baby fat melted away without even lifting a finger. Funny though as I was always very active and sporty but for whatever reason I just went chubbier in those years, oh and by year 10 I was considered as the top 5 girls to... Yeah boys are gross around this age, they never had a chance anyways, my crushes had an appreciation for Harry potter and not considered sporty anyways. I do worry I have it in me to be big so I am conscious of it though.
it all comes down to a healthy weight and maintaining that. as was the case with you and Henry, it wasn't that you weren't active, just the body readjusting itself, and some kids are cruel when that happens
