this is what 100 pounds looks like

The shorts hang, the bikini squeezes, the greasy face reflectsso, all the beans are on the table…back in january, i was coming up on my prepregnancy weight, feeling good about my stature and only having fat moments when wearing certain panties. i was doing good, or so i thought. then it started creeping up on me.

so now, it’s july and i’m in the midst of relapse-city. or am i? is it all just a bullshit excuse for attention like someone suggested? anyways.

i bought that bikini about two months ago. it’s the exact bikini i bought three summers ago, just a size bigger. i thought it might hold the twins at bay a little more, but when i wear it i feel as if i’ve a sign on me saying, “hello, these are my breasts.”

i bought the shorts the other day. i tried on some dark rinse stretch denim ones and felt a little…confined, even though they fit. i’m used to skate stuff, not ass-skimming. so i went up a size, which didn’t come in the denim and only in a navy blue mommy brushed cotton kind.

i should have waited for two more days and four more pounds lost and a breakup. then i could have gotten the denim ones.

yes, i’m aware my face is very shiny. it’s from crying and sweating and crying some more. oh, also from carrying my infection-riddled child for 20 minutes while pushing her stroller. in 30 degree (celcius) heat. now, praise me for the darkest tan i’ve ever had in my life and say a prayer that a heart attack comes before skin cancer, for me (i’m allergic to sunblock and incapable of wearing lots of clothes when dying of heat).

  • this is so crazy. i know i should tell you that you need to be careful and that you need to eat and watch what you're doing and all of that stuff, but dammit, I can't help but be a bit jealous because although you do look really really skinny, i think you look damn good too and i would love to be 100 lbs (which is a lot bigger on my midget-sized height!). fuck. being a woman is a bitch.

    I don't know what to say. Never know how to react to e.d.s-just beyond my scope. Having said that, I actually didn't want to get ice cream with my son tonight, because I prefer to compulsively eat it alond, with no one watching, and especially no one speaking to me.
