I have a few friends who have put on a few extra pounds during the pandemic. Like myself they are all working from home and meeting only through zoom. But I?ve had just the opposite occur. I?ve been a bit chubby since my 30?s, and it?s affected the way I look in a dress. I?d get all dolled up and look straight at myself in the mirror thinking I looked pretty good. Then I?d turn sideways and think, "My goodness, you?re so fat!" But during the pandemic I?ve lost close to 50 pounds and am just about at my ideal weight. When I turn sideways my tummy is flat, and my dresses look great. Of course everything comes at a price. My face has gotten a lot thinner too. I?ve gone from a pudgy, but smooth face to looking like a wrinkled old prune. I?d like to post a few pictures, but I?m going to need a lot more help from makeup, and I?ll wait until I see where that takes me. Just had to share.
