I'm not fat I'm just building up muscle

Today I got my much hated bitchy comment disguised as Ihaven'tseenyouinages greeting "Did you put on weight?"

I seriously didn't know what to say to that, so I pressed on "Is it like the FAT kinda put on weight or my clothes are too tight kinda put on weight?" and she said "It's a put on weight kinda put on weight." Dammit that means fat.

How is this possible? I yoga-fy myself every week without missing one practise. And on top of that I've been doing it myself so that's an extra day of working out. Shouldn't I look leaner and slimmer instead?

Ok, so I don't diet. I don't care about what I eat, but then again, I don't overeat or binge either. This is so weird.

Honestly I went on the scales the other day and almost died in shock because I now weigh 5kg heavier. How is that possible?

I'm not a noob about fitness and I know they say muscle is heavier than fat and all this extra weight is the muscles being toned up / building up. But I'm supposed to look leaner and more toned for god's sake! Not put on weight kinda put on weight.

This is seriously troubling me that I'm thinking maybe I should go for a run on weekends as well. If I work at a 9-5 job maybe I will as it won't be so exhausting.

Also, I think I'm growing a bum. I used to have a body like a boy with hips. Flatlands basically. Now I'm growing a damn bum. I'm wearing this dress and everytime I go to the loo I almost died pulling up / down the skirt part. The torture of thinking I could have ripped the dress apart!

This is supposed to be a good thing right? At least my mum won't tease me about being flat everywhere anymore. And I can use it as an excuse to get new clothes because this dress and that dress refused to slide over my bum. Ha.

Anyways, I've been busy these past few days, and this Friday (a public holiday for Buddhists - Wesak) I'm working!!! So unfair. I celebrate Wesak too, in spirit. Hahaha. To top it of, I'd have to wake up at an ungodly hour of 4am. Hope the shoot goes well and I understand what the agency is talking about..they're French by the way and by the looks of it a bit kelam kabuts. I ask them one thing and they give me a completely different answer, sort of an answer but not really..hahaha. Good luck lah.

Eh I better go home early today, need to work out like a maniac.
