*408 - hippopotamus and flea

Let's examine where the weight is coming from.

Breakfast
1 slice of bread with peanut butter
1 slice of bread with nutella
1 cup of milk

Snack
Decadent chocolate eclair (hoho)

Lunch
Chunk of fried tofu
Dish of veggies
Pieces of seaweed wrapped chicken
Omelette with cheese and tomato
Chocolate flavoured mantou

Snack
Another chocolate eclair
Strawberry sherbert
Half a bag of honey roasted ham potato chips

Dinner
Salmon (undercooked, just the way I like it)
Fruit and veggie salad

Snack
2 double chocolate cookies
1 cup of yoghurt drink

Darn, so that's where all that's coming from. Hahaha OH WELL.

Being wobbly and lumpy feels gross, but I realise that the more I try, the worse I become, so right now my philosophy is to be happy eating and that way I will make people happy because girls will look at me and think "phew at least I'm not as fat as Evelyn" and boys will look at me and think "phew at least my girlfriend looks better than Evelyn", so you see the world will be a happier place when I am hippopotamus enormous and that's including myself because eating makes me gloriously happy.

But seriously, it's been a long time since I've gone anywhere near to obsessing over what I eat or how heavy I've grown (ok maybe that's a lie, I still weigh myself every morning and every night but that's more out of habit than anything else), and it really does make me a happier person. The "I Hate My Body" days were sad days and I'm glad I've taken a step away from them, at least for now!

(I think what sparked this off was seeing a friend at dance class just now whom I haven't seen in about 4 weeks, and within those 4 weeks she suddenly transformed from petite to asdf;lkjSKIN&BONES and YELLOW and I didn't even recognise her at first which was really sad because she looked so sickly. Being slim is nice, but skeletal, that's worrying.)

Flea market photos from 1 week ago! Thanks for all the support, especially to the friends who made the special effort to come down to say hi (:








Ok I'm kidding, my dearest assistants Maddy and Justin were absolutely helpful and were the perfect companions especially during the tiring/boring periods. Yay (: I owe them one.

It's raining, at night, at bedtime. I love weather like this. (:
