One thing that I'm very ashamed of is that I've ballooned since having kids. If I want to get to my pre-Mira weight then I have some 10kg (22lbs) to lose. That's a lot. It doesn't help that I've been sick and so when I was getting into a great rhythm with my exercise, that has now gone on the back burner as I recover.
I know I've put on weight. I only have to try to squeeze into my old clothes and the seams on the clothes groan and seem to say "you have GOT to be kidding me woman". I don't quite need any more reminders.
So it rather upset me today when I bumped into an ex client's wife at the doctors, and she didn't recognise me at first. She said "oh your hair's different, and you've put on weight on your face".
No way. Really? I honestly hadn't noticed.
And she's not Singaporean which any asian person will tell you, asians are not shy about commenting your weight. "Wah you so fat one ah" is a favourite line. Oh yes, they are in the tactless camp.
I get it. I need to shift this weight. But please don't tell me to my face. I'm breastfeeding a darling baby and I know I will lose it, but it will take me a bit longer than anticipated, because hey, I'm 37 and that's life.
Now - I wonder if this Natural Therapist can help....................................
