I never would have guessed…

My whole life I have been VERY skinny…to the point that most people thought I had an eating disorder (borderline, but also good genetics). Anyhow…today we were getting ready to go to Outback for dinner and I put on a fav pair of jeans when I actually said “what am I doing? I can’t go to Outback wearing my skinny jeans…where are my regulars?” OMG…I said skinny jeans…by no means am I gaining too much weight, I only wear a size 6 and that’s a little baggy, but geez…My size 4 used to fit jeans now are a “bit” snug…actually uncomfortable if I eat too much. I can’t believe it…sigh…it’s funny though…my MIL actually said “well, you could look at it this way…I’d do anything to get into your “fat” jeans!” LOL. She puts things into perspective sometimes…I’m not upset about becoming a size 6…they are easier size to find and I’m actually at my reccommended goal weight for my height (5″9′ and 127 lbs.) So here’s to the skinny jeans that will hang in my closet forever and the comfy “fat” jeans that I still look DARN good in! LOL

I’m starting to get “fat” also. I use to wear 1-2 or 3-4. Now I’m up to 5-6. I’m like, what happened here. My mother was skinny growing up. So, I always say that I’m good until I hit 30 (that’s when she started gaining weight).
