Hello My dear Friends! Today I share with you an incident that happened to me sometime ago (obviously it has to be me)... As we all know I am a bit plump.. ok.. a little on the chubby side.. alright downright fat... plus weird that I am, it was very difficult for some people to grasp the fact I would get married.... Anyhoo I digress from my path...
So just before my wedding, I was asked to work out and at least look a bit in shape for the reception photos (people... what to say... they mean well.. just sound annoying)... So I was huffing and puffing and trying to lose some weight around my love handles.. (which obviously did not happen)...
So wedding happens and cut to present (flashback is over pals). Lately, while looking at old photographs and I saw one wherein I thought I looked at my slimmest best (relatively..). So I use that as my whatsaap display picture (coz you know you do not want your peers to see your double chin and nostril hair in your dp).
Within 24 hours of uploading the picture, I get a ping from some old acquaintance asking me if I was pregnant? PREGNANT???!!!??? WHY!!!!! The person said I had a glow on my face and well.. I looked extra plump in my tummy area...
Damnation!!! I was appalled!!! My work-outs did not work out for me, I felt a pit in my stomach and wanted to curl up in the fetal position and cry till I died or something..
I gathered my remaining dignity and said to this acquaintance that No I was NOT pregnant, I was merely fat... (and never had a conversation with her after that)....
PS: In my defense, I really thought I had lost some minuscule grams of weight during those days...
