New Pants and a Give Away!

So, I took yesterday off work. Why? Well, digestive issues that I totally and completely blame on my gall bladder; or lack of one. Ever since my surgery, my insides have never been the same. And it’s been a pain in my butt (literally) ever since. My system only enjoys foods that are bland and have almost no taste. Anything that tastes good, well… causes me to have some issues and I hate it!

BUT!! Thanks in part to this issue, and my desire to not be a fat kid anymore; I have been noticing that my jeans have been getting loose. So loose in fact, I had to use a belt. Then, this belt caused the jeans to bunch up to much; I decided that it might be time to get a new pair of pants one size down.

Once I thought my insides were settled enough for a trip outdoors yesterday, I ran to the bank and then headed to the G.C. Goodwill. I figure if I am going to have to buy clothing that will only be temporarily housed in my closet, I am NOT buying brand new… that gets expensive.

I went to the jeans, and one of the first pairs I looked at were exactly the size I needed! I figured it was fate, so I grabbed them up. I also found 2 other pairs, all 3 different cuts and fits. Hey, a girl has to have variety. 13 bucks later, I am the proud owner of 3 pairs of pants that are a size smaller than what I had originally.

They will take a little bit more work to fit comfortably, BUT I got them on button and zipped without having to lie down and use pliers to pull the zipper! I could even breathe once they were on!! So, now that I have gotten a new hint of motivation, I can’t wait to get to work! Tomorrow, I am and WILL attend my first Zumba class. Even if I suck, at least I will be moving!

So, up for grabs is 2 pair of pants that are too large for me. I know if I keep them in my closet, then I will have fat clothes to go back to, and guess what? I am never going back! One pair is a size 22 from Lane Bryant. The other pair is 44 waist, 30 length (I think) Arizona Brand. Yes, I also have men’s jeans. They fit better on me and men’s jeans are made with more of a fit variety.

Message me if you want in on my new found motivation!  (pictures to follow later!)
