Fighting Fat

Filed under: life in Canada, family, learning, health — Grandma C. @ 1:25 am

I have been suffering from FFD lately. Short for Fat Frump Days and made worse by shopping with a size 4 daughter (even though she has a baby) in a clothing store whose large sizes are equivelant to a small in most stores. After trying on five things and barely managing to squeeze out of them, I felt like a poster child for the before pictures in the diet commercials. But I found a way to feel slim again. Instead of getting my real size in one of those teeny size shops, I got a bigger size in a regular store. Then the clothes were hanging off of me, they were so huge. True, I left without purchasing anything, same as the other store, but I felt wonderful about it.
