Random conversations on weight

"God you will look so beautiful when you are thinner. Not that you are not beautiful now"
"Really, like who?"
"What do you mean?"
"I mean, giveme a reference of who you think I will look like if I lose more weight. "
"Oh. Uhmm.."
"Ok. A pop culture reference."
"
aaah..." "Will I look as good as Aishwarya?'
"OH. NO!"
"Allright. Who else? Nandita Das? I am just looking for an 'as attractive' factor here"
"Ah. I don't know who that is. Uhmm..."
"Amy winehouse pre-anorexia?"
"Uhmm...I have only seen her skinny. oH. i know. That diary female."
"the diary female?"
"You know the Mr. Darcy one"
"Jennifer Ehle? - the pride & prejudice one?"
"No no no. The other Mr. Darcy one."
"You don't mean Bridget Jones, do you?"
"Yeah.!!"
"WTH??? You mean to say if I lose weight I will be as attractive as somebody Rene Z had to put on weight to portray?"

Roomie, just how far down the obesity chart do you think I am??

Thought it would be a good time to let all know I have lost 5 more pounds.

Oh dear. LOL

I have to say that Renee looked fab in BJD 1. I just love, love LOVE that movie!

In the second one, she looked kind of overly puffy and weird. And it was a stupid flick.

Then again, sometimes Renee has a weird smile in pictures that looks like she's saying "I smell poo!"

So we were bad and taught our dog to put her paws over her nose every time we shout "Renee!"

I'm sure you look absolutely lovely "just as you are" and wouldn't look to "I smell poo" Renee as you approach your big day.

Sayre said...

Wow! Congratulations! And for the record - I'd LOVE to look like Bridget Jones. In the first movie. When I AM thinner, I look quite a bit like Renee Zelwegger.
