Why Yes, I AM Bragging

A little less than four weeks ago, I bought myself jeans a size smaller than the ones I’d bought sometime in December. When I bought the new jeans in December, I tried the next size down and couldn’t button them. On Fberuary 7th, I bought the size I couldn’t button.

This past Saturday, I bought a pair of jeans I wouldn’t have even bothered twitching off the pile, a pair I could’ve barely gotten a leg into, never mind over my ass, in December. I was having to hitch up the February pants every few steps.

Glee! Two pant sizes in two months, three in six months. Riding the bike a couple times a week really sped things up. I’m looking forward to what the next six months brings beside replacing pants!

Thank you thank you thank you cars for breaking down and turning me into a walk/bike commuter!

    Yay! Keep on walking and biking! It’s a good idea to reserve that big Ford of yours for special occasions only, and not only because it’s slimming you down. I just learned that Ford is going to end production of all its rear drive Lincoln Town Car and Ford Crown Victoria series, so if you go on using it sparingly and having it repaired gradually, then you’ll have a big collectible in your hands fiften years from now.

    Congratulations Lea! I’ve been going through something similar, so I know how exciting it is when you see progress like this. It helps keep me motivated to continue getting healthier too.

    Glad you’re making progress, too!

    Alain: considering stb-ex’s thing about collectibles, this is a good thing, because he’s getting the car. (I WANT him to have the car, he needs it and I don’t.)
