DISappearing PEEPS Volume 2

[punkin413]

SO!

I just got back from Lane Bryant due to the fact that I can't cinch my
pants any tighter and NOTHING I own fits...

ANd (Drum roll.....)


the 14/16's fit LOOSE! "Every-body Dance Now!"....


I got these jeans that are for us curvy gals (small waste in comparison to the rear end area) and they fit sooooo nice! YAY! They are size 1 as in ONE...they have a funky new jeans sizing system. (I'd like to think 14 is the new 1 )

I only got 2 pair thinking I can shrink them a little since they are cotton. 1 jeans and 1 cropped denim trouser-cut freakin' cool pants.

Can y'all tell I haven't shopped since I was an 18?

that's awesome!!!!!!! way to go! and i'm in total agreement with a size 14 being the new 1.

 

[monymony3471]

I'm so happy and jealous for you Wendy at the same time! Woot! Woot!

Hi Laura! How are you? Yes, we have lots to catch up on.

I feel so silly for coming over here back and forth. Not very peepish. For that I apologize.

Has bird been around? Toot Sweet? (Bonnie)

My 180 day for my december trip is Friday. I think I have my ADR's ready.

We are paying OOP, so, we are doing several but not everyday. I think I counted 6 and DH was like

I cut the grass. Front, back and way back. Now my back is screaming at me. Plus there were so many more sticks to pick up from the storm that 2 boys seemed to over look.

It might be an Excedrine night.

3 days and I rocked!

YAY!! GO WENDY!!

WOOHOO!! That is great! I may have to check out the new sizing system there. I would be happy if I fit into a size 1!

This new view of my stomach area is killing me. I feel so disgusted looking at it mocking me all day long as it revolts against the waistband of my shorts. SO, off to chug more water.

I so feel for you there!

I continue on a daily basis trying to convince myself I am NOT pregnant .........again. Even though DH got snipped in December. My cylce is crazy since my life is crazy and that's not helping me any. I don't trust pregnancy tests.

I AM NOT pregnant.

Oh! and I can't believe how big the baby is already. very cute. the girl is beautiful!


I just look like I am.

It's no wonder your cycle is wacko. All the stress has to mess it up. I've also found that a big change in diet (restricting carbs, etc) can throw a wrench in the works. So think good thoughts, keep taking care of yourself, and believe that everything will work out for the best.

UtahMama- I love Lane Bryant. I can only buy pants/capris there though. The tops are too long. I'm in a 14 also. I told the sales lady there that just cause I was *** (that ugly word we dont say here that starts with f) anyway just cause I am *** doesnt mean I am tall. Dont know if you have a JC Pennys where you are but I've had good luck there also. Any news on your Tennessee move?

Dance: The waist band of my shorts is screaming also

Ok- I'm getting motivated again....

My coworker is taking me to the gym in the am- going to start on my doctors advice of walking for 20 min 3 times a week. Next to go is salt and caffine will go last- I feel like an addict with a plan- I work with a really great group of girls and we all need to lose a little so it helps to have the encouragement and someone to physically push you in the gym door.


oh... did ya'll know that celery and asparagus are natural diuretics? and can help with cholesterol and blood pressure problems? So I'm off to get some celery in the am too.. my blood pressure is boarderline and currently i'm not on meds and want to keep it that way.

So does this mean that a size 12 is the new size 0? I am on the boarder between that and a 10 it depends on the cut of the pants. My only problem is I have a short waist and I hate having pants sit to high on my waist. I used to love OLD NAVY jeans low rise waist they had a lot of strech I recently went to buy another pair I don't what they did but wholey moley were they TIGHT! I guess I will use my gift card there on my daughter.

Have a great day everyone!!!

Awww! You are so stressed on many fronts and still have a sense of humor!

Your life IS crazy right now, but you are a strong woman and will come out of each of these trials even stronger!

Your baby girl is amazing! I feel like she was just born yesterday and she's approaching her first birthday

I have a long waist and low rise jeans after 4 c-sections and losing a TON of weight, well.... let's just say I'd like to bend forward slightly without my ENTIRE crack showing! LOL!


You are the new 0!!!!

 

[Disneyfreak92]

WENDY - Way to go on the Lane Bryant trip!!! I'm SO proud of you! That's exciting!

I get my jeans at Old Navy, but they did change things. They now have three different styles - Sweetheart, Flirt, and Diva. I tried on the Flirt and they were tight, but the Sweetheart are perfect for me. They are my favorite jeans! So if you only tried on one of the styles, you may want to try another.


Well ladies, I am asking for some prayers and pixie dust for myself - which I don't normally do, but I'm worried. I have a spot on my lower abdomen that acted like a (strangely located) pimple at first, but is now larger, with dry skin on top and looks like it's bruised underneath. I don't like the way it looks, and I made an appointment for two weeks from today (the soonest availability) with a dermatologist. I hate that I have to wait 2 weeks to learn more about this. It is a little tender (like a pimple or bruise), but other than that it isn't bothering me physically. Emotionally however, it is driving me nuts! I will NOT turn to food to comfort me!!! I am stressing though. Anyway, if you could just send some prayers, pixie dust, or just good thoughts my way, I'd really appreciate it.

Sending you Pixie Dust

I agree with Dawn though it sounds like an ingrown hair

 

[MA pigletfan]

PD for you lynda...i am hoping its nothing but a stubborn ingrown too!
Wendy..you are too funny...i agree.."crack is whack" in any form
Lauren..i did get the email with the link...i will def. be checking them out tonight!! so exciting!!!
As for NYC we really did not do much at all..our friends moved to Wall street so we were just helping them move stuff and hang large objects on their rented walls without making a big mess..LOL. but we did manage to walk over to the FF memorial near Ground Zero..Greg really wanted to visit that. We will def. be heading back in the fall though, and doing ALOT more..it was just too darn hot!
