This weekend, I went to spend some time crafting with the girls. I got so much done that I could not stand it.
But that is not what is so exciting. Y'all know that I have been going to the gym and working out and eating right and just making better life style choices. Not just for me but for the kids.
So I have my standard pairs of pants that I love to craft in. You know those pants that are just so soft and comfy.
Well, I did not realize how big they were.
Stick with me here I am about to digress...
After we got the cars unpacked with all our stuff and started setting up, I would bend over to pick up something and there was my butt just falling out of my pants.
Now, mind you I craft standing so I do not generally need to bend down to get stuff.
So here I am constantly picking up my pants and rolling the tops over so that I can keep them up.
Now I am sure that some of you are asking why not a belt, well, I don't own a belt because I could not fit one around my waist. Oh Hell, What waist. So I just don't have one.
Well, after about the gazillionth time of "The Girls" seeing my undies, which are also too big -- trust me, when my pants would fall, so would my undies, Amy and Teresa went to the Goodwill and got me two pairs of jeans that fit.
I AM WEARING A SIZE 14!!!!!!!!!!
Well, it is paying off. I was so excited. I am really excited.
OK, this may sound funny, but I don't have a goal weight in my head, I do know that I want to be able to walk into the Mall and buy a matching bra and panties. I do not want to go to into Lane Bryant any more.
Thank god for her when I was wearing a 20 but not anymore.
until we meet again,
HI Lauren,
Congrats, it's so fun to find out your clothes are to big...haven't experienced that in a long time, but I do remember the feeling. Ha, ha.
I'd love to see some stuff you made on your weekend with "the girls".
Love,
Valonda L.
