a purpose driven blog

in housekeeping news i'm the proud new owner of over 200 anonymous comments. i'll never believe that this site is original nor does it have great graphics so i'm going to have to pronounce them spam. if you can believe it. so i've gone to registered users only. if you folks think this is more annoying than comment verification, let me know and i'll switch. customer service is at the heart of this organization after all.

so, the title. it seems that i've fulfilled the sub-header of this here site. my ass is frickin' disappearing. as far as i can tell, it's the only thing disappearing but who am i to complain? it's what i set out to do, isn't it. the downside is that again my pants are falling down. nothing makes you feel chic like hitching up your pants in the center court of the mall. so i guess soon i have to go shopping again. or start wearing elastic. even chic-er than showing off your ass crack. fact.

there's nothing like repeatedly losing your pants to underline, capitalize and bold the truth of your progress. i know i've been the hypocrit from hell about not worrying about the number on the scale and then using it as a title post every day for months. and then every time i feel successful it's because of my clothes, not the stupid white box with the numbers. i am a hypocrit, i admit it. go ahead, register and berate me with your comments. i'll be waiting with my disappearing ass and my jeans 'round my knees still pissed off because the scale says nothing has changed and i believe it.

Belts come in handy during those awkward between size transitions. And wide belts make your butt look smaller!

i own plenty of belts, but i can't rock the cinched and pleated pants that come from belt tightness and pant looseness. i just can't. it would be emotionally trying.

if my clothes were more expensive i'd just tailor them. but everything i own is from the gap and it's just not worth the trouble when they're so cheap.

I am pretty sure that your jeans being so loose your ass crack shows is chic-er than mine bing so tight my panty-line shows. Well done!!

Rebecca said...

ugh...yes,loose clothes should definately be a bigger upper than some numbers...

if it were only so simple...

Yes, I agree with all. Pants being too big for me that i have to hike them up all the time, is, as we say in Project Management, not a "problem" but an "opportunity." 98% of the time my job is solving problems. We jump at those 2% of the time to "seize opportunity." So seize it! Start a trend! And only people whose pants are too big BECAUSE they lost weight, not because they bought ridiculous big pants can join. We'll all be able to tell the diffence because of the extra spring in your step!
