A grumble about the watchful eyes of a concerned husband!
For some reason this morning, my significant other was fretting about my eating habits. Concerned that I don't eat often enough and that when I do eat it's only tiny portions. Personally I can't see where he is coming from on this, as, yes - I do often skip breakfast.... but its soon replaced by chocolate biscuits at work and a greasy take-away in the evening or a huge hearty meal cooked by myself.
I would like to lose a couple of lb perhaps, but I'm not bothered about it. If I had the inclination to get off my ass and go to the gym or go swimming, they'd drop off. But I'm too lazy so ha. I don't think there is an issue with my weight; I've never been huge - I'm around 5 feet 2 inches tall and a British size 8. I wear size five or six shoes and I have no idea what size my waist is, or really what I weigh. We don't even own any scales in my house.
Compared to Hubby I do look small. But thats just because he's 6 feet 3 inches or so, and (although slim) built like a bull.
But, he did make me think this morning. What right do we have to judge the weight of others? So what, I'm small. I'm not sick or anything, and past that why should anyone care? As long as I'm healthy and happy - other things are secondary at best.
