So
recently, I put on a lot of weight: or better put, I have become fuller! I
know this because most of my clothes are small now that I have to get a new
wardrobe. When I say most, I mean my pants (trousers: get your mind out of the
gutter), skirts and certain dresses. I have always bought bigger clothes
because I don’t like clingy clothes and I am the type of girl who would wear
something I like for years and years until it becomes threadbare and begs to be
thrown away. When I am slim, and by slim I mean my lowest weight of 62kg, my
clothes are like baggy dresses (which I am happy with) and when I am at my full
weight of 70kg, they are a bit snug but not so tight that all my curves (real
and imagined) are out there for all to see…well, until recently: I weigh 75kg
now.
