fatty no more

OK. I will let you all in on a little secret of mine.


I actually don't eat that much. Anymore.

Not too long ago I used to be an incredible fatty and could out-eat a fair amount of friends, including boys. But sad to say I've lost my steam. I can feel my metabolism slowing down on me and I just can't bring myself to scarf down an entire entree when eating out now (plus appetizers, plus desserts...). I'm starting to see the consequences in my face and feel it in my stomach.

I've always been "the skinny one" and could pride myself in eating whatever I wanted without getting fatter. I don't think that quite works anymore though. This is very sad, as I am still a huge fatty at heart, but I have grown to like being "the skinny one" and the superficial girl in me (is that an oxymoron?) wants to keep being nearly-borderline-disgustingly skinny. Now, if you know me at all, you know that I am WAY too lazy to exercise, so not eating as much is pretty much my only option.

With that said, these last few weeks I have been eating even less than my less-than-usual. My face is noticeably skinnier than it was a month ago (it's the first part of me to show any weight gain/loss. Boo.). I think I've lost around 3-4 pounds. Maybe for the next few weeks I'll let myself indulge a bit and get back to my normal weight.

But that's still not heavy enough for me to be able to give blood.
