After Being Called "Fat," This 8-Year-Old Made a Fitness Plan With a Hilarious Twist

An 8-year-old girl in Texas just learned a powerful lesson in self-love, and it's going totally viral for all the right reasons.

For Briseyda Ponce, running is usually part of her daily routine, and last week, her younger cousin, Allysson Baires, asked to join. And so the two ventured outdoors for some afternoon exercise. While the cousins were running, Allyson told 17-year-old Briseyda the real reason she wanted to get in a workout that day: some of her school classmates, including her crush, Hector, called her fat.

When Allysson grew tried from the run, she did the most relatable thing ever and pulled out a mid-run treat - a Rice Krispie Treat, to be exact. We're not even sure where she was stashing her snack while working out, but we do know that this is downright hilarious. Naturally, Brisyeda documented her cousin's hysterical move, and it quickly went viral on Twitter.

During their run, Briseyda set the record straight with what Allysson's fitness motivation should really be. "I tried to make her understand that beauty is within," she told POPSUGAR. "No one's opinion should matter. If she's happy there's nothing wrong!" The older cousin also had some advice for any other kids who have been similarly mocked in school. "They should never let anyone's opinion change how they see themselves. As long as they are happy nothing should matter, but if it reaches a point they feel things have escalated they should always let a teacher, parent, or adult [know]," she said.

But this wasn't the only support the 8-year-old received, as dozens of Twitter users responded to her story with encouraging words of wisdom.

Hector, you may want to sleep with one eye open . . . and get some new glasses because Allysson is perfect just the way she is!
