Amalie Jennings, 30, knew all too well how cruel the world could be.
For most of her life, she struggled with self-hatred and feeling like an outsider because of her body. But everything changed when she met a man named Sean.
”I have always been fat since I was two years old,” Amalie explained in 2019.
”My mum took me to the doctors because I was gaining a lot of weight. Since as long as I can remember, I have been fat. And of course, that comes with a lot of bullying, a lot of picking on. My oldest memory of bullying is in Kindergarten, when I was around four. And all the kids picked on me for being fat.”
As Amalie grew older, the bullying only intensified.
”I gained even more weight, which meant I was picked on even more. I started self-harming, and I got picked on again,” she said. ”I just had a really horrible self-image. I hated looking in the mirror.”
