Awww....go ahead, hun. Look at it this way....you have a better chance of wearing them now than you did last week....so....even if you aren't quite there yet, you're a week closer.RedHairedandFriendly said:I know. lol. . .Thanks, hon.
I went to the closet, just a bit ago and found another pair of jeans. . .I'm too scared to try them on. lol.
I'll think about it.WyldBreeze said:Awww....go ahead, hun. Look at it this way....you have a better chance of wearing them now than you did last week....so....even if you aren't quite there yet, you're a week closer.
Jeans are like the enemy. lol. They are nothing like the size you are. I mean I can get a pair in the size I am, then they won't fit, but another made by a different company, same size will fit. lol.
I know what you mean. lol Keep in mind, though....that girls that wear a size 2 think the exact same thing.RedHairedandFriendly said:I'll think about it.

I am more energetic and I fell good when I can wear things I couldn't before, and sit down in booths. . .I slide into them now instead of wondering if I will have to move the table to get into them. I fit in the doctor office chairs too.Society said:You're very welcomeDo you feel more energetic as of late? How are you feeling about yourself nowadays?
Exactly the reason I buy two or three pairs of the same jeans when I find some that finally fit like I like them.ShinigamiSama said:even as a guy its like that
I have 36s that fit better than a pair of 40s
and some of my 42s are smaller than my 38s...
I know they do. Even ladies smaller than me have the same issues.WyldBreeze said:I know what you mean. lol Keep in mind, though....that girls that wear a size 2 think the exact same thing.

Hmmm.... my over all looks. . .
You know I don't feel people are staring at me as much as they did 70+ pounds ago, but perhaps that is just me and maybe I am feeling better about myself, so I am not looking for what people may or may not be thinking of me.
Do I feel sexy/beautiful?
Not naked, I don't. Clothed in some clothing that is smaller, then yes, I do. But when I look at my body as a whole, and completely exposed, then no I don't feel better about myself. Now I look at my nudity and look for signs of excess skin, and when I see it, I hope that eventually it will "spring" back into place. Some folks' do. I hope I am one of them.
My hub always wonders why women's pants aren't done like mens, with the inseam measurement too. I think pants may fit a bit better if they were. But they are focused on the waist line, not the length. My mom is 4'11 and capri pants are the right size for her to have as regular pants, otherwise she has to cut and hem her slacks. She hates buying money on a pair of pants and then having to sew them.ShinigamiSama said:even as a guy its like that

I remember back in high school getting so upset with my best friend *a size 4* because she would complain about how "fat" she looked and all that. I finally realized that it bothered her as much as my not size 4 body bothered me. We all need to just support each other and move on.RedHairedandFriendly said:I know they do.

lol

I have the opposite problem...I'm 5'11.

Yes. I know.

I am 5'4, so I usually end up with the "average" length.WyldBreeze said:I have the opposite problem...I'm 5'11. If I can't find "tall" pants, then everything looks like capris.
RedHairedandFriendly said:My confidence has increased in some ways, yes. The steering wheel on the van now sits in the lowest position. Breathing is easier, walking, taking the stairs. . . housework is even easier. Sex more enjoyable and feels different too.
I don't think I'll get arrogant. I do want to shop a lot at this website: http://www.victorinelingerie.com/index.html and told my hubby I will need my own credit card in order to do so. I have also thought that when I do get down to the sizes that I need to be to shop at this site, I may have to start a thread here on lit and do a fashion show.
I'm hoping to just stick to being confident. I dislike the arrogant males that I know. It actually makes them look stupid IMO. Confidence is key, arrogance is not. I'm glad things have changed for the better for you. I have hardly any stamina right now, even in the bedroom. I think once weight is lost, I will be okay.
I guess the grass is always greener on the other side, huh? lolRedHairedandFriendly said:I am 5'4, so I usually end up with the "average" length.

I HATE buying jeans.....I stock up once every two or three years just so I don't have to do it often. lolShinigamiSama said:hates buying money on a pair of pants?

and thats a good idea wyld
I usually get two pairs every time one pair dies, cause then the next time a pair gets washed it won't fit right
