stephanie is: 
in bed…
So explain to me something…
Sometimes I manage to gain weight – not much, never more than 5 or 6 pounds. It all goes to my butt, thighs, and lower back. Genetics, I know. That’s not what I’m confused about. I say manage because it takes effort for me to gain weight. I am naturally thin. But I can gain if I try to eat lots of desserts and as much dairy as my mostly lactose-intolerant body can handle.
Here comes the question: Why is it that when I gain weight, I lose most of what little bust I have? Seriously, it is not in my head. Gain weight = boobs go bye. Huh.
They always come back – my boobs. It is hard to keep the 5 extra pounds on, so I drift back to my “natural” weight and my two friends come back. I am barely an A as it is. I have found that A-cup bras from the little girls’ department are the only ones that fit me right. They seem to be cut for small ribcages and small breasts.
I’ve become pretty accepting of my body over the past few years, but the fact that I am ill-proportioned has always bothered me. I am small – tiny, some would say – but, my wide hip bones don’t match up to my tiny bird-like ribcage.
To sum it up: screw trying to gain weight if I just lose it everywhere I want it.
Dear Trolls and Assholes:
Your snarky comments about my thinness are not needed here. They only make you look immature, and they make others pity your stupidity. And, don’t even bother with the ‘you wouldn’t be sick all the time if you gained weight’ song and dance. I grew out of my catching-every-germ-that-passed-by phase when I discovered vitamins, nutrition/protein bars, and lots of water really do work.
Yours Sincerly,
Stephanie
Please pardon any typos and spelling errors. I am on an old-ass laptop that doesn’t spell check as I go, and it is difficult to type while leaning off the side of the bed to reach the keyboard. And now that I have sufficiently screwed up my back, I shall roll over and pick a documentary to watch on the tivo. (Laura, I have a bunch of ‘The Dog Whisper”s… which do you still need to see?)
Night night…
