8 Things Only Women With A Chubby Tummy Will Understand

Written by Shivani K  • 

All those with a chubby tummy out there; this one is dedicated to you! Don’t you think a chubby tummy is cute? Well, some of us are cursed, or shall we say blessed with this utterly chubby, soft, and round cushion of fat which hangs around us all the time. All of us have made our peace with it in our own way. Some think of it as their pet koala. Some have come to think of it as their pet junior panda as well!

But, on a serious note, for some of us, the existence of a chubby tummy is a good thing and for some, it seems to be the bane of their existence. All in all, most of the proud owners of a chubby tummy have a bittersweet relation with it. And that’s exactly what this article is dedicated to address.

Please note that this one is written with nothing but pure love in our hearts. It is not our intention to body shame anybody. We believe that everybody rocks in their skin irrespective of how fab or flab their body is.

8. It Puts Our Leggings In Their Place

You know as alluring and figure-hugging as they are, those sexy leggings perennially seem to make their way towards mother earth. But for women with a chubby tummy, this is not a problem. When we wear them, they stay up and never once do they become prey to the almighty pull of gravity. Constantly adjusting your leggings and fearing wardrobe malfunction is not for us. Whether it’s bending over or sitting down, when people with a chubby tummy wear leggings, they are certainly at a more advantageous position than others.

7. It Makes For A Very Convenient Snack Stand

Unlike lesser mortals who have to sit with a coaster and table to enjoy having snacks while getting some quality TV time, people with chubby tummy are blessed with a readymade snack stand. It might look weird to you, but hey, don’t be a sore loser!

6. It Has The Ability To Disappear For A While

If you’re someone with a chubby tummy, you’ll know what I’m talking about. You know, that moment when you lie down on your bed, it’s gone! All the visible signs of your chubby tummy vanish, it feels like it never existed in the first place (just like we think that our ex-boyfriends never existed once we’ve broken up with them). But the truth is, you know you haven’t killed your ex-boyfriend. So he exists alright! And so does your tummy. The moment you lie down on your sides, your tummy will make its presence felt again (sigh).

5. Jeans Are Our Frenemies

High-waisted jeans suit us the best. They hide the bulging flab of our tummy almost instantly. But picking the wrong fit might make us feel like we’re wearing an oversized diaper. In any case, jeans are the most flattering article of clothing we can get our hands on. The only drawback of wearing a pair of jeans is those red welts that they leave behind when you’ve worn them for a long time.

4. We Put Up With Awkward Questions Every Time When We “Dress” Up

Smocked dresses or any other loose clothing that we sport, we wear it to give our chubby tummy the freedom to hang loose. I mean for how long could we curtail its cuteness by wearing shapewear? People fail to realize this. Instead, they ask us the most outrageous questions like “Are you expecting a baby?”, some even go a step further and ask us about our “due dates” altogether skipping the formality of confirming their assumption (insert all annoying emojis).

3. We Are The Most Sought After Huggers And Cuddlers

Yep! You read that right. You’ll feel the warmth enveloping your cold heart when you hug a person with a chubby tummy. That jaadu ki jhappi will make you feel so good that you might even end up asking for another hug from that person. What can we say, the chubby tummy gives off a very warm and cuddly vibe! And the chubby tummy is beloved of both the kids and the adults, for it makes for the softest pillow you see.

2. We All Have Learnt To Live With The “Jiggle”

If the chubby tummy had to be given a food name, it definitely has to be “jelly.” Wouldn’t you agree? If you have a tummy that’s blessed with a little flab, then you sure know what we are talking about. When you walk or jog down the park, this little pooch jiggles all the way as if you’ve hidden a bowl of jelly under your shirt. Jiggle or not, we know how to strut in style while owning it.

1. Love It Or Hate It But We Can’t Live Without It

Yes, we do grumble about it. We might even say we hate it. We might even hit the gym in the hopes of getting rid of it. But the truth is that it occupies a very special place in our lives. The chubbiness of the tummy marks our identity. So secretly or not, we still end up loving it or at least we make our peace with it. We can hug it and feel better any day. We don’t need another human or a stuffed toy to make us feel good.

See, none of us is born with the perfectly proportionate body, right? Some of us have huge breasts, some have curvy bums and then, some of us have these flabby tummies. It all boils down to one thing — we are all beautiful in our own perfectly imperfect way! Do you agree?
