Lose weight the fun way.

Posted on September 10, 2014

Colder weather is coming. I have been wearing skirts and dresses all summer. And I fit into only one pair of dress pants for work. ONE! Thankfully they are black and match with almost everything.

I almost broke down and bought new dress pants for work. But I HAVE dress pants. In tan, black, white, grey. They just don't FIT.

But I refuse to buy new work pants. I REFUSE! I am not really a tights person so that pretty much means I wear the same pants 4 times a week. Thankfully Friday is casual day and I can wear my (too tight) jeans.

I will not spend money on bigger pants! I will use my upcoming winnings to buy more SMALLER pants.

SO THERE! Who's with me?!?!

I totally feel you! After I dropped some weight my pants fit, which meant I had been wearing them WAY too tight to begin with lol.

I am with you guys! I had to break down buy something so I opted for a few A line dresses. When I lose the wt I will still be able to wear them. But I could NOT go for more pants!!

Right on!

Mantra for the day: NO FAT PANTS!!! I'm right there with you ladies, just last night while digging for the umpteenth time through a closet FULL of too-tight clothes for just one more outfit to wear to work to get me by today, I was mulling the idea of ONE MORE TIME buying pants to "get by," I needed this post ~ NO, I WON'T DO IT! I will press forward until I can feel more comfortable in my existing wardrobe and use that for leverage to NOT get to this place again!

I hear ya, Mia! I have way too many fat clothes. So much money wasted. But no more. The scale moves downward, and I'm making do until I get to where I want to be. We can do this!

Buying stretch waist work pants was what helped me get to the scary weight I used to be. I totally agree with you! Now all of my pants are so loose after doing two dietbets. But I'm not buying pants either! I'm going to wear a belt and look like a clown until I'm the size I want to be. THEN I'll buy my final size! ^_^

Most definitely!! I am in the same boat. I noticed all of my pants are on the verge of busting. But I'm not going to start having a closet full of fat clothes to feel comfortable in. We should never feel comfortable with being fat. I'll never let my clothes tell me it's cool, we'll just adjust. I know it's not healthy. Simple things are becoming laborious. No fat pants!!
