Quite often this is the fault of relatives. My grandmother repeatedly told me that I'm big-boned since I turned 13 or 14. As a result, I formed a wrong image of my body. From the age of 15 to 20 I gained 1,5 kg every year, being absolutely sure that I was just growing and not getting fat, because my grandmother and father kept telling me this all the time. So it continued until I switched to the European size M (top) and size XL (bottom) from the size S (top and bottom, when I was 14), gaining somewhere 7-8 extra kilos to my normal weight. Only then did I realize that I was fat, because no one can grow in such a strange way. After that I began to lose weight, which took, by the way, around 2 years. In the process I made all possible mistakes, because I was completely ignorant about weight loss, diets and CICO. Imagine my shock, delight and surprise when after 2 years I left the store in the newly bought skinny jeans of size XS. As it turned out, I'm not big-boned at all!
