Losing My Britches


It took me a few minutes to decide whether I wanted to wear my cute corduroy skirt or my black dress pants to work today. The pants won because they're just so darn comfortable and they don't require leggings.
As I was putting on my pants, I felt like I was about to get lost. There was so much fabric! How can this be? I purchased these pants a couple of days before Christmas and they're a size 12. According to my calendar, I've only lost about 20 pounds since they were purchased.
I wore my saggy britches today and felt like an absolute slob. It was actually quite embarrassing. I expressed my concern to my husband after work by giving him a mini fashion show. He instructed me to buy new pants.
If I make it to the mall this weekend I might be purchasing a new pair of black pants. I did recently purchase a pair of jeans in size 8 and they fit great. So I'm wondering if a size 8 in dress pants will fit. And while I'm wondering if the 8 will fit, I still feel like a size 24. My brain still hasn't caught up to all the changes. Will I ever see myself as long and lean?
