Spandex is awesome!
Jan 15, 2010
Ok so I became frustrated with my jeans situation! I can slide my damn 20's off without buttoning and the ass is baggy and my thighs swim. So I drive the 2 hours it takes to get to Walmart from the indian reservation. Seriously. I had to drive to another state to get to walmart. Anyway I decide I am going to try on every style and brand of jeans this place has. Something has to fit right! The miley cyrus brand goes up to 17's. They are cute and stylish. I decide to try them on. Since I can get into a 16 if I want a 17 should be great. Well it was great .. for my ass and thighs. I found them again!!! But not for my belly. Another thing that frustrates the hell out of me. The last time I weighed this my body was less abused. I had a belly sure but it wasn't this hanging skin and rolls mess that I have now. It was higher and tighter. But with gaining and losing the same 30 lbs over and over again for years my tummy got loose. Got gross. So with the low rise jeans that the cyrus brand has I couldn't button it around my hanging belly. Blah! I move on to higher waist styles. Everything I try on gives me a roll of belly that hangs over the top of the pants. Looks HORRIBLE. I try on every single style of jeans out there. I find a few I like everywhere else but the roll. So I give up and hope to try again when I get into Onderland.But wait!! what is this?! As I was looking for a new bra (just as frustrating) I see this modern corset type thing. Spandex. Now my mother would wear the bathing suit looking suck you in so bad you can't breathe type spandex. So this isn't the first time I have seen it. But I never find one I like that fits everywhere properly. Sounds like the theme of my life.. anyway. I don't get the full body ones cause they are too small in the chest and it looks like my boobs are trying to escape from all angles and the shorts one just push up the rolls so I have a second set of breasts. No thanks. But this one was different. It was like a tank top with the breasts cut out. You wear your own bra with it. And it flattens down to about your belly button. I go and try it on. OMG! AMAZING! My top belly roll is gone! Oh and it pushes your bra up nice and high. Hello breasts! I am so excited I don't even take it off as I rush out of the dressing room to find those pair of jeans that fit everything else just right. I grab them and with the spandex top on I put them on. PERFECT!! No fat roll over the top. And as a bonus nice an in your face breasts to greet the world. So I buy the jeans and the magic spandex. I can only wear it with my tight jeans though. If I wear it with my 20's they fall right off!
I am considering saying my goal to fit into regular sizes is met but I still come up with clothing I have to go into plus size for. I am now a large in scrub pants and shirt. The shirt has to be cut right otherwise it is too tight on the bottom and too loose on the top. So for now I will leave that goal as in progress. I am hoping to soundly meet the goal right about the time I get to Onderland. 8 lbs to go!!
