Time flies by.
Soon, a week passed.
This week, Martha stayed at home every day, and was supervised by Stefan to take medicine on time, eat some small snacks made by Bianca from time to time, and draw one or two paintings in her spare time.
Of course, during this week, every night, Melissa would come visit her with different kinds of soup for her.
At first, she felt that life was simple and happy, but soon, she felt despair.
She gained six pounds a week.
When Martha saw her weight this morning, she was stunned for ten seconds.
She thought that she had a physique that would keep her from gaining weight no matter what she ate, but she didn't expect that one day she would gain weight so quickly.
Martha reached out and touched the fat on her stomach, looking at the sky speechlessly.
Sure enough, people can't just eat without doing anything, or they will be obese.
This morning, she surprisingly only drank a bowl of millet porridge, and the four people at the table were shocked.
Maxwell discovered it first. He looked at Martha who put down the bowl in shock, and asked worriedly, "Martha, do you feel unwell?"
"No."
Martha looked at her father suspiciously, not understanding why he asked such a question suddenly.
Maxwell clearly saw her daughter's doubts.
When she was about to explain, Stefan's steady voice sounded beside her, "During this period when you're home, you'll have a bowl of millet porridge, a plate of fried dumplings and some sandwich for breakfast."
"But today, you only ate millet porridge."
When everyone else heard that, they all nodded.
Jimmy ran to Martha worriedly, trying to reach out to touch Martha's forehead.
In the end, Martha reached out and grabbed Jimmy's hand, and said helplessly, "I'm fine, I just don't want to eat anything else today."
She didn't want to get fat anymore, so she chose not to eat when she was full.
Who would have thought that such a small detail would be noticed by them.
"Is it because the food I made today is not delicious?"
Bianca looked at Martha nervously, and put a fried dumpling into her mouth as she spoke.
Soon, she said to herself, "This taste is right!"
Martha sighed helplessly, and explained embarrassedly, "I'm really fine, I just found out that I have gained some weight recently, so I just eat less. You don't have to make a big deal out of it."
When everyone heard that, they immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
Just when Martha thought that this was the end of the matter, Stefan picked up a fried dumpling and put it in her bowl.
"Eat, you are not fat at all now."
Seeing this scene, Jimmy ran back to his seat, fetched a sandwich for Mommy, smiling very happily.
"Mommy, you will always be the prettiest in my mind."
Martha was slightly taken aback, feeling a little moved.
She knew that the most important thing was good health in their opinion.
However, in her opinion, a woman should not only be in good health, but also in good shape.
Thinking of that, she became more and more determined that she wanted to lose weight.
She did not refute to their words, but said with a smile, "Jimm, you're the most handsome boy in my eyes."
"Hooray," Jimmy responded cheerfully, and started to eat his own breakfast.
Martha didn't eat any more after eating a fried dumpling and a sandwich.
