I’m Fat! F-A-T!
I’m not exaggerating but I really am fat. A lot of people have been telling me lately, “uy tumaba ka!” I’m not even sure if im supposed to take it as a compliment or what.
Yesterday I was getting ready coz my other housemate and I planned to go to St. Francis. I put on this old pants, mind you, size 30. I had a hard time pulling it up to my waist, I cant breath and it wont pull up. I changed my bottom, my old, reliable levi’s (size 30 also), and for crying out loud. It did pull up to my waist but it wont close. It really wont. I’m pretty sure it’ll tear on the butt part if I bend an inch. I wanted to cry. Am I really this big now.
We went to St. Francis and pants is on my “to buy list”. I tried several slacks and after 2-3 stores, I found one. Then it took another 30 minutes before I found another. When we transferred to Megamall to look for jeans, I know I need an hour or two to find one. And true indeed. It’s a shame I had to drag my housemate into that. We went from store to store looking for a pair. Either its too tight, their XL wont close on my big tummy, their biggest size wont even reach my ankle, the length is ok but the waist is too big, etc, etc, etc. I finally found one at Buffalo, and it is not cheap! Ampf! I tried about 6 pairs before I found one. Good thing the girl who’s helping me out is really nice. She keeps throwing me size 30 jeans and she even recommends those that are on sale. Its just so hard and frustrating on my part. Lalo na am not fond of shopping. My sister recommends that I have a tailored jeans/slacks, but I don’t know how to buy the right fabric. Its probably mom to the rescue again. I need to cut down on food na talaga!
