What was I thinking anyway?!?  I know I'm up almost 10 lbs so why?, WHY? would I think I should try on jeans?!  It's not as if I've packed away about 6 pair of $70+ jeans in the past year because I couldn't stand having them hanging in my closet.....mocking me. Oh, and the jeans I had to buy to replace the mocking ones are now TIGHT.  Hey, just go torture myself some more.  Nordstrom Rack carries Joe's and Seven's and RockNRepublic, etc.  So I grab a few 28s and 29s and head off to florescent lighting hell in a dressing room the size of my pantry.  I make a conscious effort not to look down at myself in the mirror.  Long RANT short.....nothing works.  One would think a $250 pair of jeans could make anyon's arse look good (even at half off).  Having to use a compact to see the back end may not have helped, but even in a mirror the size of a cookie I knew things were not right. 

So today I am wearing my men's Lucky jeans that are loose and comfortable and don't make me look like a Jimmy Dean sausage casing.  I can almost (ALMOST) forget the 8-10lbs and focus on something productive.......like finding the perfect push-up bra or nail polish for my toes.  These being the only areas of my body that I can tolerate.
