I've put on some weight from starting the b.c. pill 4 months ago and I've gained about 10lbs so it's noticeable. Some of it is in my tummy area.
I never used to dislike my body size (however, I was too thin for a long stretch when my ibs was bad) but now I feel F-A-T. 
Man am I angry!!!! What an INSULT!!!! grrrr....

I'm glad guys don't have this problem.
I highly doubt it is possible for someone with IBS to become over weight. I have a hard enough time getting up to "normal" weight.

I am still well within my healthy body weight. I think it's because I was super skinny for a long time.
When my ibs was super bad (for 1 year) I weighed 103, then gradually got back to 115. Now I weigh 125 so it IS noticeable but I'm so insulted!

That's because people can be a-holes. Don't listen to them. You know I think you are BEAUTIFUL and that is all that matters.

I know, sweetie. Thanks.
I feel bad enough with these extra 10 lbs and for someone to say that is just so awful, so mean!

Who is stupid enough to even say something like that??? I hope you find a creative way to return the insult! (E.g., "You know, I noticed that your a$$ is looking much wider these days... Have you been watching more TV?"  )
Seriously, that person is obviously a complete social moron.

If you have D then maybe you're skinny, but as a C I can tell you, it ain't necessarily so.

That's awful!  Who says things like that to people?! Was this just some random person who said that or a friend? Inexcusable either way. Well I know it's tough, but don't let it get you down! Do some crunches and then eat some ice cream and you'll feel better!
