Glowering at her figure in the mirror, Kasumi wished she'd picked up some more curves when she'd moved from Japan to California. Unfortunately, she just couldn't adjust to her new country's cuisine. Her diet remained traditionally Japanese... and her figure remained traditionally stick-insect-ish.
She wanted to wear those clothes that clung, the showed over a taut, toned... and curvy body. However, when she wore them, she was just too flat! Snorting in frustration, she went back to the Gym. It was quiet at this time, and she felt less self-conscious. Even the gym-bunnies seemed to have curvier bodies than her.
Looking at her scrawny arms, as she sat at the machine, she swallowed the grumbling growl in her throat. If she wanted to change... she needed to be the change!
'Be the Change!' The clichéd poster words felt like sand in her throat. But she gave the overhead bar a tentative pull.
Even if it went nowhere, it would at least burn off some of her frustration. The bar moved easily, but Kasumi wasn't about to make the work any harder... A longer session with a lighter weight would work better than her straining against something she could barely move.
