Choosing between your face and your figure

[MissAlabamaWhitman]

I think I've hit this particular fork in the road sadly.

I've always been 5'8, around 9stone 7 and an effortless size 8-10.
Since turning 32 a year ago I've sprouted Ecup boobs, a flabby tummy, fat arse and put on at least ten pounds.

Having said that I look much younger than my years, even more so after gaining weight and edging ever closer to a size 12.

I don't mind so much, I'm hardly overweight.

I'm just not particularly slender anymore and irrespective of my smooth face I'm not sure how I feel about this. I think my overall softer bodied appearance cancels out the relative youth of my face in any case. Sometimes

Is this just something we all go through in our early thirties or thereabouts or should I move my fat arse and do some bloody exercise/stop eating shite/ buy some vitamin c serum?

I'm around your age OP 34 soon and know how you feel.

I've always found it difficult to keep my weight under control, but now it definitely makes me looks heaps older if I put on weight. I'm 5'5 and around ten stones. I can gain or lose a couple either side but I do look better just under ten rather than over.

What used to look like puppy fat now just looks like middle aged spread!

I'm one of those people who gain weight on my face so have to stay slim or else I just look awful. 1400 calories per day is enough for me, not much unfortunately.
