Pondering belly flab
I was sitting here just thinking about my belly flab.
Yep, I have nothing better to do than sit here and ponder
belly flab.
The reason I was pondering my belly flab is that once I lose
my weight, what will happen to all the loose skin that was
stretched beyong repair after the babies and gaining all
that weight?
I mean, I have stretch marks on my belly that a
tractor-trailer could drive down. I doubt that they will
magically fix themselves as the fat melts and dissappears.
I can see myself now and it isn't pretty: I finally lose all
the weight (someday, I hope) and I'm stuck with rolls and
rolls of skin hanging down. It will have to be surgically
removed because I don't think it is going to shrink.
Then I will be stuck with surgical scars where they removed
yards of my skin and sewed me back up on their human-size
Singer sewing machine.
So, I think I'll just stay the way I am. Belly flab and all.
