The awful thing is what I had to have a flipping gastric bypass and if I just waited a couple more years
00:04
I could add to those blinking injections that everyone else is having
00:07
I was then pick that would go that could have had that but I want to have the gastric
00:11
I felt I had no blinking choice. What made you feel like you had no choice?
00:15
Well, I tell you media was it family was it everything really?
00:18
I said so I was a little girl and I wasn't one of those little chubby girls that likes eating cake
00:22
I was the the skinny kind that's not very interested in food
00:25
And then I did this thing that my parents really never forgave me for
00:28
Which in those days you called developing, you know, you suddenly start to get very tiny bosoms. Oh, that's when I was three
00:34
Oh my gosh, I think I've got pear juice in my hair. That's why it looks all stiff like that
00:39
And that's my special best party dress. Um, and and I I suddenly started developing and I mean, you know
00:45
You've got a little bosom son. I was about nine. Yeah, my mum rushed me off to the specialist. What's going on with her?
00:50
So what mrs. Felt she's developing my grandma said that's ridiculous. She's only nine that you know
00:55
It almost as if I'd done it on purpose
00:56
Which of course I hadn't and then I think my mum thought that you know
00:59
My waist would go in my hips would come out which is what happens, isn't it?
01:03
We are developing and I think she panicked I'd be fat now
01:05
This is the 60s where everyone wanted to look like Twiggy
01:08
Also, they wanted me very marriageable and marriageable meant thin like it always seems to everything seems to be thin and but I wasn't that
01:15
I was quite thin and from that moment. She sort of started darting me. So she's saying I'm where old were you nine?
01:21
We're all having the chicken soup, you know with vermicelli and with you know, lovely dumplings and everything Vanessa's having half a grapefruit
01:28
Wow, I was nine
