The Misery of an Ugly Obese Girl

I always think of this misery story when I feel dissatisfied with my appearance. My friend Mary was an ugly obese girl. She had bulging cheeks, extremely big mouth, and short bow legs. Worst of all, her eyes bulged like a frog. When she was young, she was teased by her classmates all the time but she was still happy and optimistic. After growing up, she had to face more and more realities in this competitive society. Gradually, she believed that people who had beautiful appearances lived in a better life, and she forgot that inner beauty was as important as appearances.

She still did not care about others’ mocks until many misfortunes happened to her. She was isolated from her colleagues. She worked alone so she always finished her missions late. Therefore, her boss thought that she was irresponsible and commanded her like a servant. This kind of situation happened frequently and was getting worse. One day, the member of her department ignored the important information. This mistake made her company lost lots of money. Her colleagues placed all the responsibilities on her so she got fired. When she heard this bad news at home, she fainted. At first, she thought that she fainted because she was shocked by this news. However, after having a complete medical checkup, she found she had cardiovascular diseases and diabetes. The doctor warned her if she did not control her diets she will suffer from a stroke one day. Because of those bad relationships with colleagues and diseases; gradually, she became lack of confidence and self-abandoned.

Her tragic stories occurred unceasingly. Despite her boyfriend had cheated on her several times and had stepped out with a beautiful woman, Mary swallowed her anger and forgave him over and over again. He finally broke up with her and said cruelly: “It is shameful for me to walk on the street with you.” This words stimulated her to change her appearance. But she hesitated about whether to do the plastic surgery or not because her friend suffered from the terrible side effects. Her friend spent lots of money doing whitening laser, but she became darker instead. This result caused indecision in her actions. Even so, she finally decided do the plastic surgeries to make her ex-boyfriend regret.

The surgeries were successful. Now, she has a small, delicate, and perfect face after doing the laser, facial skeletal sculpture, and rhinoplasty. She becomes as skinny as model after having the whole body liposuction. However, she was addicted to try any kind of new expensive surgeries; finally, she ran out of all her savings.

Even though she became extremely beautiful, she still could not get job, find her true love, and get along well with others. She wanted to know why, so she asked her ex-colleagues and ex-boyfriend; finally, she realized her poor situations caused by her personalities. Her boyfriend broke up with her because he has been fed up with her bad habits. She always wasted money at will and had lavished her money on luxury bags, clothes, and shoes. Her colleagues hated her because she kept complaining, stayed gossiping, and tattled her boss on them. Her boss was in disappointment for her passive attitude toward work. She did not realize the fact that doing plastic surgeries can only change her appearance but cannot change her personalities. External beauty attracts people first and then inner beauty captivates. If we only have beautiful appearances, it will be in vain. People will feel disgusted to us when they find we have terrible characters under our beautiful appearances.
