Default My Pants Fell off!!!!

OMG!!! I've been feeling a bit down today, so when my son asked me to take him swimming I had to force myself to go. I put on a pair of yoga pants that I've had since before started my weight loss journey. I didn't bother with underwear because I knew I'd be changing right away and sometimes I just go commando. We went swimming and then I had to go pick up a few things at the grocery store. While shopping I realized my pants kept slipping lower but I had on a winter coat and it was hard to pull them up. I figured it was no big deal and I was getting ready to pay anyway. I paid for my stuff, tried to give my pants a quick tug and got in my car. As I got out of the car I realized my pants were really slipping so again gave them a big tug and grabbed my groceries. I walked up the stairs to my door and my pants started slipping lower and lower... and right there at my front door they slipped down to my ankles!!!!!!!!!! I was seriously standing at my front door with my pants around my ankles and no underwear on! Thank God I had a coat on! I started kicking the door so my 15 year old daughter would open it. So here I am with a gallon of milk in one arm a huge container of laundry detergent and a bunch of bags in my arms....with no pants on! I thought my daughter would die when she saw me! She actually just gave me a big hug and told me that she's so proud of me! LOL, I thought that was so funny....me standing there with my pants around my ankles didn't shock her....she was just proud that my pants don't fit anymore!

So, my day just got a whole lot better. I've been feeling down and off track, but this was just the laugh I needed to keep me focused.

Great story! Methinks you should go get a Brazilian wax, just in case you suffer another "wardrobe malfunction". Hah!

hehehe - I was thinking an interesting tattoo might add some spice to the local neighborhood gossip.

Congrats on the loss, missingmyerica. The weight. Not the pants. Unless that's your thing. Then congrats on losing your pants, too.

I just found a new goal. Why go for losing numbers on a scale when you can lose entire pieces of clothing! missingmyerica - you are an inspiration (albeit kind of a weird one!)

Here's to losing 'til your pants fall off!
