I bought a bunch of clothes…

10/20/2008

… 4 sizes smaller than what I was when I bought them.  I think I’m maybe half-way into them.  I was wanting to be into them by the end of October, but I don’t see that happening.  I didn’t buy any clothes before until people made fun of my loose drawers and I tired of hiking things up — it was at 4 sizes down that that happened, so I thought buying new clothes 4 sizes down would be just right as an incentive to WORK harder at losing weight. 

Contrary to popular belief; weight loss surgery (i.e. the lapband) is not an easy way out.  it is just a tool to help those of us who don’t have what it takes (or enough of it in my case) to do without one.  Having a lapband only gives one a step up in weight loss.  They say it can even be eaten around.  Yeah, right.  Maybe if one just ate ice cream and mashed potatoes all the time.  (Those are still real treats to me!)

Anyway…

I need a pair of dark slacks come this Wednesday and since those are NOT GOING TO FIT — I broke down and ordered some that should and hopefully will be here by tomorrow.

As I "undergrow" my clothes I donate them to the Goodwill.  I’ve already got some things lined up that I only got to wear once or twice.  Did you know that Goodwill had an online store?  Heh.

I still plan to be in the others soon.

UPDATE:  The pants came two days too late.  OF COURSE I KNEW THEY WOULD, SINCE I NEEDED THEM!
