Jean Shopping......
Oct 31, 2010
So today i decided that I needed a pair of jeans to wear. The last pair I bought was about 1 1/2 months after surgery and they are hanging off in a big way. I went to Torrid first- but their size 26 didn't work. (the last pair of jeans I bought were a 32) and then I walked the entire length of the mall to go to Lane Bryant. I tried on about 10 pairs of jeans. Ok- the last jeans I bought were not so difficult- there weren't jeans for different body types. This is a great concept and i am very happy to see that my legs and waist don't have to be the same width in order to buy cute jeans- but I am never going to get used to the low waist jeans- aghh... the rolls the rolls..... Then I was told- if I can fit two fingers in the waist- they are too big...... really????>??? I am definitely not the tight jeans type- but I guess that is my only choice right now. ok- so they look cute- but i am standing at the register and all of a sudden my "good" knee pops and omg there is a shooting pain. I realize that I had been standing for almost 2 hours- but that sucks!!! Every time I try to be more active or even just do more than I did- I end of getting hurt. It scares me enough to become less active again.Tuesday I went for a walk and fell on my knees and face. FUN. So like I said - I always end up getting hurt. I am so happy to be more mobile- but I have to find a way not to get hurt!!!!
by the way- the jeans were a 24-still huge for most people but so much better than where I was.......
