Many women want to be big to please their men. No reason why we should think of the implications to our health! I went shopping for new summer clothes a couple of weeks ago. I have been of late a size 38 which with my height is not really ideal but is something I could live with. My breathing has not been good of late but I could learn to live with it. I wanted to try on a purple (my favourite colour) flowery dress to see if the style suited me. I got a shocker! The dress would not fit! I was quite sure it was the style. I tried on another in a different style with the same result.I have never been a fan of full length mirrors and what I saw disheartened me - the hills and bumps where previously there had been none, the hideous cellulite! I finally admitted defeat and took different dresses in a size 42. The purple dress I took in size 38 though.
I hunted the web for a quick fix to my dilemma and finally settled for the exercises provided by this website www.shapemag.co.za. I liked the fact that some of the exercises are really doable especially by people as unfit as I am. Plus you really do not need to go to the gym. Saves you lots in gym fees. I am going to start a record of my exercise regime towards losing two dress sizes in 3 months. so lets keep fit and be happy.
Big is reputed to be the reason why humans survived the feast and famine cycles of a hunter-gatherer existence. In such environments, only those with genes that predisposed the carrier to store as much fat as possible were able to see the next season. The combination of today's guaranteed (more-or-less) availability of food and sedentary lifestyles makes it likely those genes might not see the next season...
