 I realize I’m a big girl. I’ve never tried to deny that like some people might – and you know exactly who I’m talking about! There are people who live in their own fantasy world and I’ll admit I’m jealous. I knew a girl once who wore clothes that she REALLY shouldn’t have been wearing. Then she lost a lot of weight – though I hear she’s still chunky and gaining it back – and I swear the clothes got shorter and tighter!
Does she have a special mirror that she looks into in the mornings that makes her look like Angelina Jolie? Because just let me know where I can pick one up! Does she not have friends or family who can say, "You might want to rethink what you're wearing because it looks like you poured yourself into it."? I wonder where she is now. And more importantly, is she still wearing clothes 5 times too small for her?
I was just in Target picking up some odds and ends and walked through the clothing department - let's be honest, Target has some cute stuff - and I saw this woman come out of the dressing room in a dress that HAD to be painted on to her body. It was SO tight it was painful to watch. Then she had the nerve to say to her friend, "I think I need a smaller size."
But is it her fault that she's drawn to that? I mean, have you ever looked at the clothes they have for fat people? It's atrocious! I saw a skirt once that was so short it could have been used as a headband - and do you know what size it was? - 26/28! I'm sorry but if you're big enough to be wearing a 26/28 then you have NO business wearing a skirt that short.
Again, what are these people seeing when they look in the mirror? Because it is NOT what the rest of us are seeing.
I know you probably think I'm being mean but I'm not really. Obesity is a serious issue - I'm just too lazy to care right now. Maybe after I finish my Twinkie I can put more thought into it. |
