I think I am a person of much avoirdupois. you see, i am 155cm and i weigh 60kg. Try and calculate my BMI, you’d agree with me. 2 years ago, my weight was 47kg. hmmm… I miss my 47kg body; shopping for clothes has never been easier. Now :-P, have to keep asking whether they have a larger size, and usually they don’t. 😛
