2001-08-14 - 10:26 p.m. - Joys and Anguish of being Plus Sized
One minute on the lips forever on the hips...
Whoever coined that phrase was trying to help overweight women like me stop eating eventually and stop to take a good long look at themselves in the mirror.
And it makes you think, is there hope for big women, size 10 upwards, (I use size 10 loosely, cos I know most men these days alwaywas take n smaller) can we ever win that man's heart and kae him overlook our plus sizes, rolling hips, dimpled cheeks, baggagging bosoms and look at our eyesm our eyes, what is in our hearts what lies in our souls, and not to ineveitably concentrate on, "Okay, she is what...a Big women?"
It is sad, I say this becos it always ruins your self-confidence...that and being inhibited by blah looks, but I can't help but wonder that if i was slimmer it would help to snag and kep that guy....and it does...it gives you that felling of, "Come here tiger, yes, you...come here," purring like a kitten at them.
But when you're big, people look and say, "Lord knows how many ice cream scoops she took to get that way, how many bagels, how many croissants...one too many, I'm afraid."
And they would shake their heads in disdain and pity like some somber thing had occured to you to cause you to be this way...it's true, it's true...but then...I have known it any other way...except the Big way...how much would it cost for me to live the day in the life of a slmi person, how much of my soul would i have to sell, or be willing to sell, how much would each one if us give for that?
one minute on the seats, and it settles to the hips...
