Perusing through old photographs brought back memories of when I was skinny. Those were the good old days. The reality is I will never look like that again. As a child, I was super skinny with no fat thighs or flabby arms and certainly no hormones that had an influencing effect on my weight. I was never weight conscious and I could eat what I wanted without gaining any wait. Very active in playing netball and could easily clock in a good 8 – 10 hours of sleep.
Remembering that my weight annoyed the dressmaker who made my matric ball dress. My waist size would be smaller every time I went for a fitting. Resulting in the dressmaker having to make the necessary adjustments. As a shy and very naive teenager, I would just smile and accept the criticism of my skinny shape. It didn’t bother me at all. Life was then carefree and my weight was certainly not an issue.
