rule of thumb….. never ask a girl if she is  pregnant unless she is wearing a bun in the oven  shirt!!

this week i had to help my husband’s family bury their 19 yr old son but as horrible as it was i couldnt believe the number of people (3 to be exact-1 was a pastor) whom had asked me with a bright smile…. “HOW MANY MONTHS ARE YOU?”….. how do you react, i tried to keep my cool and politely just said “no”

 seriously?… you are a perfect stranger… i never met you before… how dare you insult me like that!… i admit i gained a bit but i have been working my butt off (literally) trying to lose my weight!…. so i have a little tummy… but what of it?!   so a girl isnt allowed to be a lil chunk w/o worrying about the insults of people thinking you could only be pregnant… my husband says its b/c of my small frame, dainty wrist and thining face… i agree all of my weight dropped from top down but still … i shouldnt have my days ruined by ignorant people….. the saddest part is when i would reply no im not they would sometimes just against again… “oh i said how many months” like it was unbelieveable that i was really just fat…… the worst is after i cried to several friends whom also have or once were a but chunk they said people would ask them as well…. what is wrong with people!?!… this is what drives women into eating disorders!
