I was surprised to find out that I had a friendster comment from a classmate of mine a few days ago, just after reading it I found out that it was my mother in law who sent the message. she told me that she wants to buy me some house clothes when she gets here any week now. What's so funny about it is I emailed her my measurements, but somehow a lot of people were truly amazed at my measurements, like, how did I get so big?? 
my MIL was shopping around for clothes at the local market and somehow stumbled upon the clothing store owned by my classmate's family. It was so funny coz she probably mentioned my name (she's very talkative, that's why we love her) and ta-da that's how everyone I know that I married her son. Their family are well known in our town. and my MIL even told our love story to her! 
back in the Philippines everyone knows me as the tall, white slim girl from the block. I always hated the attention from everyone coz they would always criticize me on losing a few more pounds when, hello, I'm about 130 lbs for crying out loud. at that time. especially my classmates back then. They were all the petite slim types where I was the tallest at 5'6. I always walked back then and around that time my dad stopped our support so we were kinda on a tight budget, problems rised and when you're in school you tend to be stressed, at the same time I skipped meals, too. that explains it.
But when I met my hubby when I was 18, he was really generous and always treated me with all sorts of surprises, everyday we would be together eating at our fave restaurants, or buying a batch of bbq at our fave bbq stand a few blocks from my home. I think I gained over 20 pounds when were dating. When I got pregnant, grew even more bigger. Over the years I guess the pounds kept adding up, I was like a yo-yo, would lose it then gained it back. but seriously, 6 years had now gone by and I am truly sick of myself. I am still happy with myself but I promised myself year 2008 will be different. oh hell yeah it will be different. so far I've lost 11 lbs. I do at least 30 minutes of tae bo and turbo jam 3 or 4 times a week before I go to work. I am eating a lot of salads, I only eat a cup of rice, ditched the sugary treats (which is really hard), candies, chocolates, sugar in coffee, more veggies and lots of water as I always do 
. It's all worth it.
I have up to a year to at least get to my target weight before baby # 2. I am truly excited because there's a lot of things we are looking forward to. we are thinking of buying a home soon( not too sure about that), Nathan going to school on July, and conceiving another blessing to the family. So back to the weight issues, I really don't understand why it's hard for people to digest the fact that I am not the "slim" Kit anymore they always knew? I never did say I was sexy, right? so what? so yeah, I goofed up. I forgot to take care of myself, my bad. but I know we can always get opportunities to try and change our habits. I am proud of losing every pound, sooner or later I'll get there. Motivation is key. I gotta put this under wraps, people... chat with you guys later!

Whether you are slim or you are a big girl, i really should not matter. What's important is you feel comfortable, you are confident and you are healthy
Matangkad kang babae so sa akin, oks lang na medyo mabigat ka. :)
