And no, I didn't expect them to fit... but I want a basis of comparison so I decided to see just how "skinny" I need to be to fit into my skinny jeans. I should perhaps explain my skinny jean so that I'm not the only one who knows what in the world I'm talking about. Last year, and about 10 pounds ago, I bought a pair of Seven for All Mankind jeans off of eBay. They are the size that TrueJeans.com says I was supposed to wear... Size 30 (EU not US). They sell for over a hundred dollars and I would never pay full price for something like that so I got them on eBay for less than $40. Well, they arrived and I was excited, except that when I put them on (and I did actually get them on and buttoned) I couldn't walk, breathe, or move. So, in fact, I've never been able to wear my "skinny" jeans even when I was "skinny"-er.
Back to this morning... I decided to give them a whirl to see how far I have to go and like I said, to give me a point of comparison. The verdict? Let's just say Julie has a few more pounds to go to even get back to the get them up and buttoned stage... never mind walking, breathing or moving. I did get them mostly up but buttoning wasn't going to happen!
It's okay and it's what I expected... I just wanted something to work for! As a result, I have a fine day planned and lots of good and healthy food to eat!!!
