  • We are dealing with a nasty snowstorm today.. but I had to go to work.. meh.

    I put on my favorite khaki pants today.. I thought they were a bit loose but they are my favorite pants to wear on yucky weather days... not quite jeans but not 100% dressy either.

    The receptionist (who I love dearly: she's everybody's grandmother and I know she said this with love)

    "Honey, you need to get rid of those pants. They are too big on you and your butt looks like my father's in those pants.. good ol' droopy drawers. Go shopping"

    Awesome.
  • That's great! I think... Yeah it is! Her intentions were in the right place. And baggy pants means your doing something right! Congrats!
  • LOL! That is cute. And it's nice when you get those comments out of love and caring. Now.. GO SHOPPING! What are you waiting for?

    The weather to cooperate! LOL!

    I think I'm going to go the eco-friendly route.. I don't want to spend a lot of $$ on new clothes since I'll be losing more weight still.. these pants will be going to the Goodwill Store and hopefully I can find some thing there for my newly shrunken butt
  • awww my dad used to call us droppy drawers when us kids had a wet diaper

    Awesome compliment!

    I bet you're going to my favorite Goodwill store That place kept me in clothes the whole time I was losing. Have fun!

    Fuller Road?
  • Good for you!

    I actually think I can lose at least 80 pounds before I need to go shopping... I've got a good supply of clothes in about 5 different sizes in my closet(S)
  • Excellent. Those are the kind of remarks we all want to hear!
  • Definitely a compliment! Have fun thrift shopping for smaller pants!! I wish we had a decent local Goodwill store here!

    Ohh, I didn't know about that one. I meet my Mom in Albany a couple of times a year to go to Sal's but I can never convince her to drive out to Troy. Nice to know there's another Goodwill nearby. (I'm an Albany refugee )
  • ROFL!! I hope you gave her a big hug! Take her advice and shop till you drop!
  • 1oftheluvs - I'm with you! I have 3 different sizes in my closet now and two more in our storage closet. I'm giving myself two years on the clothes in the storage closet or they are getting thrifted!
  • Way to go....gotta love them droopy drawers!!!!

    Speaking of which...one the kids' today in class...he needed to pull up his pants...one of the kids said "Tywonne, I can see your drawers!!"...
    then I said "well, at least he's wearing them!" The kids thought I was "hilarious" (one of our vocabulary words this week....you never know when a vocabulary word can be worked into a conversation!)
  • Congratulations on the NSV. Hope you can find some smaller ones soon! Springtime coming makes me want to go clothes shopping.
