Jelly on a plate
A long time ago I heard that you stop growing at the age of 16 well, they lied......... you might stop growing upwards, but you definitely don't stop growing sideways .........I have decided that i need to take the perverbial bull by the horns, or should I say the FAT by the wibble wobble ....... .... Fat that really disgusting three letter word, that the magazines use as there favorite subject to cause us all to fall into a deep state of depression about our shape, you can be anything, and do anything and say anything but you just cannot be FAT........ it is the ultimate, body sin...........
What can I say ......... the FAT appeared all over my body over night, it was not there one day, and the next my skirts were a little tighter than usual, my shirts were a little stretched ...............
I had always been thin, in fact, skinny, so was not looking out for this FAT monster, it sneaked up when I wasn't looking...... when I wasn't prepared............ it wasn't invited ......... and certainly it wasn't wanted ......... I happened to take my eyes off the scale for a few months and presto there it was ........ FAT ............ I put on a few kilograms, how many .. .. well lets just say that if you measure it in margarine tubs, you would need a trolley and not a basket to carry it.............. ugh scary thought..
Somewhere deep, deep in the back of my mind I knew that I was buying a bigger size, but convinced myself that is was the make of clothes, clothes made in China are just much smaller than European made clothes............. everyone knows that the Chinese are small petite people ............... not Amazon woman like us Africans............
When my daughter went shopping with her Dad a while ago and he bought a XXL shirt, her comments were "That if he took another X he would be just as big as Grandad" ......... enough to make anyone starve themselves for a few months ............... so before I take any X at all I am going to take the bull by the horns and lose some of the Fat.................
My stomach is the problem, with two caesarian and one hysterectomy, my stomach looks like a hot cross bun, the muscle is gone.......... gone ............ gone........................... it is just not fair the things we have to do to our bodies ........... I think that men should have a turn, to bear the children and have the monthly red sports car................
I was an avid gym attendee, but over the past months I have put off going regularly, and have now paid the price, I have made every excuse know to man........ and woman............ but the time has come to hang up the chocolate, the sweets, the ice cream and put on the gym shoes................ or maybe I can get used to the fat ...................... no Vitafit............... here I come.................
