I bought a new pair of equestrian-style boots and I was able to pull them up over my calves!

Ohhh, boots that fit over my calves... Good one!!!

Seriously....why don't boot manufacturers get the hint already. I have SO many friends who want to buy boots...and lots of them, but can't because they don't fit around their calves. And some of these friends are skinny gals...but just have big legs...so it's not only people that are overweight who have this issue. UGH!!

Enough of the vent...sorry...probably not good for the NSV thread

I love reading these, so many thoughts hit home.

I have noticed inches not pounds disappearing. With my pants the thighs are not so tight and the waist line it alot more comfortable. And my cheeks are not so chubby looking. l guess I need to pay more attention to these things, because thanks to you guys I feel pretty good about this whole thing now!

Yes, boots!!!! I went to DSW to get a pair of boots (before SB) and was so discouraged the dumb (CUTE) things wouldn't get over my calfs!! I ended up buying booties, but I just got a $10 off coupon for DSW and plan on getting real boots!! (or wedding shoes, depending if the boots fit haha)

DW thought she was being funny last night and PANTSED me (my jeans weren't even unbuttoned!)...luckily we in the apartment already. She is still laughing about it. Now at least she understands my issue with needing new clothes
