The Fat Jean Talk: Note to Self

Aug 06, 2010

7 Things to Remember
When the Fat Jeans Get Too Tight


1. Don't panic. It doesn't burn that many calories, anyway.
2. Put things in perspective. You've lost 200 pounds. You've gained back 20. If you can lose 200, you can lose 20.
3. Be nice to yourself. Think of all the things your body lets you do now: walk up a flight of stairs, run, do jumping jacks without disturbing the neighbors. Bunches of cool stuff. Remember that!
4. This happens to everybody. Okay, so I suppose comparing myself to "everybody" isn't all that healthy, but if it helps, why knock it?
5. Weight is like life. There will be ups and downs. What's important is to keep on trying.  
6. Recognize a good problem. When size 10 jeans are my fat jeans, things are probably not that bad. (Former size: 28-30)
7. Men kinda like curves. Don't get me wrong. My husband wants me to be healthy, but he also doesn't mind a little extra junk in the trunk sometimes.

Ahhh. Okay, emotional crisis averted. Now I'm going to go put on some loose pants. :p
