Very late on this but I just discovered your critiquing this series. (Doing very well btw. Keep it up!)
"'I immediately notice the padding over my breasts, adding curves that hunger has stolen from my body. My hands go to my chest and I frown.'
>Implying Katniss had curves before."
I took that as she never had curves. That the 'hunger' she talked about meant her life back in D12 as well. She and her family were eating better than most of the district, but she's probably still malnourished after years of starving before.
I guess they're doing the padding now because she's a victor and will be focussed on a lot more than as a tribute.
