THE 'TWEEN SIZES

My waist currently measures 35"

Which speaks about my sedentary lifestyle, and possibly my love for the nice and greasy KFC which has recently opened downtown.

I was 36" for a short while, but then that troubled me, and so i unconsciously began to bring it down. But now I'm stuck here.

At 35.

Which is not so bad in itself, but these darn clothing companies make trousers in increments of 2 inches, so its 34 or 36.

Guess where that leaves me.

34 clearly shows my midriff protrusion, and 36 slides down to "half-bum". Unless i tighten the belt a notch further, in which case it gets bunched up around the butt, and i begin to look like a hood from Chicago in the 60's.

Now i have to either lose an inch, or gain an inch and love myself either way...

I also worry about how this is going to impact my already dis-jointed wardrobe.
( I'm moving back from the half-sleeved "Chennai corporate office" look, to the pin striped-with-tie Milan look )
