yes how can this continue? It can!!
Yesterday He actually managed to say 'phat', as I cringed he seemed confused. At least I was able to also teach him the word SLIM as thats what he was trying to describe, with the hand gestures.
I tried making a joke out of the situation, as the phat girl inside always does, when she is mortified/ horrified/ scared. He mentioned that my hair looked nice, so I turned it on him and said his hair looks 'two thumbs up'. We both laughed so I don't think that conversation was lost in translation.
Part of me considered stopping my exercise plans/ goals just so that he would leave me alone. But we are beyond that, because now he would tell me that I am getting fat! I guess I better keep on track and just get used to the constant attention that appearance gets here in this country.
I mean CONSTANT. I saw a girl walking down the street with a hand held mirror in one hand (and of course "hand p'on" in the other) [p'on= phone in English]. Women and men are always looking at themselves in any reflective surface there is. If there is no mirror in sight, the phone is held up and a quick picture is taken, to ensure proper hair placement.
So if I come back to Canada and can't stop looking at my self, please don't be offended;)
