WHMP: 5 September 2017
Today I have decided to do something a little bit different and celebrate in my inaugural Percy Awards post!
And the awards category of the day is…..
BEST SUPPORTING ROLE!!
And the nominations are:
- My glasses
Today I am wearing “new” frames, which are actually my old frames just to confuse things.
I have had so many people tell me my frames were too big swallowing my face now that my face is so distinctly thinner. So I have decided to go back to my previous smaller frame glasses.
I give thanks to my glasses for most importantly giving me the capacity to actually see myself (and the world clearly) but thanks to my old frames for hiding my old chubby cheeks.
2. Zulily
Zulily gets a mention in its supporting role for not only feeding my addiction for internet shopping but for delivering me the ongoing gorgeous, cheap, stylish and SMALLER clothes that I am enjoying wearing at the moment.
Most of the newly premiered outfits of the last fortnight have been zulily bargains. I wonder when the delivery man will deliver my next parcel in transit?? 🤣😂😅
3. My bra
Today I also wore a new bra for the first time! I can’t believe the size, it is in the teens!! I started out as a 26f and today I was proudly rocking out (well secretly since I am the only one who sees it) in my new 18DD bra. It’s cute and it fits really well so I can roll up and stuff the windsocks, that were formally known as boob into them.
4. My new knickers
Today I also wore some new knickers also sized in the teens….what the?!?!?
I can honestly not remember when I last wore size 18 knickers! I am ashamed to admit this but I started out in size 28 bonds cottontails knickers that were tents in comparison to the new knickers. I thought I kept an old pair for reflection purposes however they seem to have been thrown out in my last wardrobe cull.
My new knickers also play a supporting role as they are control top knickers. While they aren’t as large and unattractive as the cottontails they do have to be constricting and supportive to pull in all the extra jiggly skin bits to not only attempt to keep things somewhat smooth but to also contain the excess skin and prevent any unwanted rashes and skin irritations. The struggles here are real! So thank you best n less control tops for keeps things contained!!
5. Paragon Fitness Centre
Oh how much I have a love/hate relationship with this place but Paragon and the amazing friendly and welcoming staff are playing a huge supporting role in me learning to take the time out and to invest the time in bettering myself emotional and physically!!
So kudos to all the nominees mentioned for the category of best supporting role but I am proud to announce that the winner is – Drum roll please………
MY SHORT LEGGED BIKE SHORTS
While I have a mass of excess skin in my batwings and belly and I no longer have boobs BUT the one area that causes me the most anxiety and discomfort is the excess skin in my upper thighs.
All I have ever wanted to do or wear is a cute tiny floral pair of shorts come summer but I know that will NOT, I repeat will NOT be happening until I have had reconstructive skin surgery. I had so much excess skin on my inner thighs that I refer to it as my second vagina. When I stand the skin sags down nearly to my knees and resembles a secondary lady business. I know, I know, such an attractive picture in your mind but it’s the facts! I love my new legs from my knees down but knees upwards is some kind of horror story!!
I have a picture but I just can’t bring myself to openly share it as it just really sets of my anxiety!
So this leads me to why my short legged bike shorts win the best supporting role. Whenever I am wearing anything other than pants, which is often since I have always been a dress girl I always and I mean ALWAYS have to have a pair of bike shorts on underneath my dress. I need this to keep the excess skin from rubbing and also from my keeping me from flashing my second vagina to the world. Nobody wants or needs to see that….me included!
