I think I’m going to buy a house next to yours. Just do a balance of portion control and working out.
Irem, girls in Pakistan aren't slim ..... they are thin. I am sure you are normal for your height. I was the moti one when I was in Karachi so I know how you feel. Compared to people here though, we are not chubby/fat .... are normal. If you are still paranoid, then do some cardio at home .... and cut down on halwa poori (everyday????) .... that is soooo fattening.
I tease a family member from time to time bout this, its funny, we all laugh about it.
Irem, its natural, your “cravings”, learn to enjoy it in portions. You can eat it ALL but thora thora kar kay. It works, believe me it does.
Unless, you would rather have me around calling you B-52 bus 
or when you sit in the car rather try to sit, I just start moving it forward 
screaming out of the window “RUN RUN LOSE THAT WEIGHT”. If you like my weight loss techniques please send a cheque to my mailing address which you will recieve via PM and we’ll get you started asap.

my fav fruit last summer was watermelon. Mai nay itna ziada
khaya kay u won’t believe it. Aur agar katnay kay bad pheeka nikalta tha tau I used to throw away the whole $7 watermelon. And If u add all those $7 …
kher yahan count kon kar raha hai.
So anyways…aaj kal zor cake rusk pay hai. Chai mai dabo dabo kay
khanay ka itna maza aata hai kay bata nahi sakti. :rotato:
I dont think the problem is with your weight. The real culprit is that almost all the fattening food is either downstaris from your office or outside of your house. Have you considered moving out or may be migrating to Uganda?
u make me wanna throw up all the fried rice i just had :p
Irem baji, i don’t kno wut is wrong wid u 
but Mashallah u do NOT look fat, seriously u look really fit, n about the weight i mean seriously it depends on a person’s body, so don’t stress urself out wid these things
but if u really thing u needa change all dat den try pilates or certain exercises, do NOT n i repeat do NOT start dieting
juz eat healthy and don’t eat too much of the oily foods if u think dat’ll help u, other den dat i say keep exercising n dat’ll help u more den having to diet n do all dat stupid stuff, wese bhi like i said it depends on a person’s body. i have this friend who weighs more than me but looks madddddddd skinny. why? because she has a small bone structure than me, if you looked at her arms and mine you can see that im skinnier but my bones are bigger than hers, she has more meat n i got more bone in me lol so yea i hope that helps
Everyone here has given you great advice…
so I am not here to do that, all I have to do is to thank you for the good laugh you gave me.
PS: Moti woti tum ho nahi kaheinsay bhi. So stop acting like it. Meat on the bones is actually healthy and perfectly natural. 
As I read on I couldn’t help but get angry.
Girl! at least don’t have such a misleading title. For Allah’s sake mein na soocha pata nahin kiya ho gaya hai Irem ko ab.
On top of that common girl ! Have you not seen those people who loved eating food but due to their diseases they get they are not allowed to eat them anymore. Some people dont’ have those stuffs for years. Un ko jo dukh hai tum sumjo ghee??? It’s not even about getting exercise. It’s like the doctors hand down the sentences no more parathas, no more this no more that.
You are young! EAT! and exercise and Allah ka sukar karo that this is NOT “your dukh bhari kahani…koi sunay to uski ankho mei aasoo aa jayen…”

I saw a CNN report, where they showed an African reporter, who went to Etopia and lived in a village for a month, he eat what they eat, he drank what they drank, he worked what they worked, it was a real eyeopener, as his host family, didnt eat for days other then some kind of grass, the kids very crying yet so brave, the mother was a non stop worker, a strong woman, the father a helpless man, when you see such documentaries then Irem your sorrow seems unreal, be glad that you are bless with so much, we don't aknowledge what we've got until we dont have it anymore. :(
highsocietylady gosh u r right
Afia baji u r so lucky 
i am still on a diet. ye alag baat hay k my maamoon was visiting last night and he brought my fav mathai like he does every sunday 
and i had one gulab jamun, one barfi and half a chamcham

sigh
You can exercise at home too.
Skip ropes
Do push-ups :halo:
Mop the floor
Iron all the clothes for your family in one go 
and Allah ka shukar kar that you get to eat.

SAJAL… hmmm…agar dil boht zada chah rha hae then y don’t u have just 2 cakerusks maximum, aur saath koi fruit with the chai…? bilkul na chorein, zara sa kha leyn u know…
waise do you exercise? i’m inshallah getting a treadmill this week…
aur you know what, i had given up eating roti at lunch, siraf daal yaan tikka ya aisa kuch kha leti thee, but my colleagues at work have forced me to eat lunch…and actually now i feel better…warna har wakt thakan ka ehsaas hota tha…
Simply Seema mein jo gola ganda banwati hoon na us mein i ask them to put a lot of extra comelle and extra syrup warna mujhay pheeka lagta hay
yes u r right meetha is not the reason for being fat…laziness is 
lekin XS meetha bhee nai khana chaiye…kia kkhayal hae?
btw u r not fat
little human i am getting a tread mill inshallah tv dekhte dekhte i’ll exercise on that mopping ironing is too boring plus we have a maasi to do all that Allah ka shukar hae rope skipping aur push ups mere bas ka kaam nai kasam se
