The Untold Story

Hey friends,

I'm back and proud to announce we are still on the programme! It's tough i tell you! Even baby formula commercial can be alluring.

Anyways, it has been 6 torturing days for me and Wani has had it for 18 days. She said I will survive the temptations by 10th day, so i thought i'll distract myself from that nice IKEA currypuffs my husband is munching by having this post up. He has weird ways to show his support you know. I'm testing your willpower. See if it is the real deal this time.

Wani @ Day 18 & Me @ Day 6

Dinner Day 6

Talking about challenges.

You see, we grew up in a very typical environment. Where all the fat ones being picked out for jokes, a subject of stare. Well, you know, the usual. There was a point of time we avoided family outings just because it was just too hard. Have you been in a situation when you walk into a diner and some weird kid will yell ey gemuknya! And things got worse when the parents decided to just giggle instead of kicking the kid's ass for being rude? Okay, maybe not a kick, but at least some efforts to correct the situation.

Sad, huh? I know. It's not that we were embarrased with our own flesh and blood, but it looked like that was the best thing we can do to avoid the whole family to be humiliated. Don't get me started with things at school! Only small, petite girls got into the dance show while our names were pre-registered for lontar peluru match. Cikgu, no!


Don't get me wrong, you guys. We had pretty normal chilhood. Nothing psychotic, seriously. We were blessed with nicest friends and beautiful memories as kids. It's just we had to deal with confidence issue at an early age. It's okay. Like Fiza would definitely say, it builds character. So Miss Sunshine :)

Btw, on a serious note, I think we need to have a change of perspective. We have been bullied and discriminated as early as 7 years old. Being fat, was not as funny as the boy who shit in his pants after being scolded by discipline teacher for teasing his friend hyppo. But no, hyppo somehow seemed funnier.

Oh my, I can go on and on about this forever, so I better stop now. Hope to have our young pictures up here soon. This gonna be fun!
