Right, t'other day the beau and I were out at our local swimming pool and we found out something interesting. We were in the pool, goggles on and diving down, doing handstands and generally having lots of fun until we discovered...
The beau seems to have the magical power to sink down and sit cross legged on the bottom of the pool and I do not. I have tried repeatedly (and much to boyfs amusement too methinks!) to sink down and sit. I flapped my arms and paddled ferouciously but to no avail. I would get a short way down and then bob right back up the the surface. I tried all the tips, I blew out all my breath as I decended, I tried again and again. Turns out, and maybe this isnt such a newsflash to some of you but...
Fat chicks (and dudes too I'm guessing!) don't sink!
Now, what we would like to know is, is this down to my lack of olympic style sinking finesse or is the answer more simple than that?
Is it because I is fat?
Do any of you lovely lot know?
We would love to know your similar experiences where it seems, just down to plain old physics, something is not achievable due to your BMI.
