I'm like the Venti size at Starbucks

That's me. "Maventy" as they say. I'm the only person in a 5 mile radius that doesnt eat rice three times a day and I'm the largest person for my age and height for days. For example, a woman my age, and my height (5'5") that has never been pregnant and is not currently pregnant weighs about 110lbs.

 I've witnessed it time and time again, I weigh more than a pregnant woman who is almost to full term and a lot the time, where I live, more than a fully grown Malagasy man... 

So, I get why they call me "maventy", it's because it's true. I'm huge! I'm a 24-year-old woman and weigh 135 pounds! But people say I should take it as a compliment and that's what I'm trying to do because the Malagasy diet and culture of eating just doesn't cut it for me! 

Side notes:

The average newborn in my area weighs 2.9kg

The average 3 year old weighs 10kg

And a 5 year old weighs 12kg

The average upper arm circumference of a 10 year old is 18cm 

Yet, these people can walk over 40k in a day-everyday- with no shoes. I've seen people carry over 20 liters of water on top of their head with no hands with a newborn on their back and with 6 chickens in their hands. They can sit in squatting position while washing clothes for an hour. And they can climb coconut trees with no help from anything but their hands and feet.

 The Malagasy people I have seen are some of the skinniest yet physically strongest people I have ever seen in my life. 

I'm like the Venti size at Starbucks. I got/am the Venti size, it's not doing me any good (other than being well nourished and not getting ill often) and people are staring at me and judging. Oh, being a minority certainly draws some lines of comparison worth observation.
