A side effect of weight loss that I never really thought about before: My panties are too big!!!
It's the funniest thing, really. Since I haven't officially gone down a size in pants, it didn't occur to me that my underwear would stop fitting anytime soon. Afterall, I've worn the same size drawers my entire adult life, no matter how many times I've lost weight!
But alas, the elastic for my undies barely touches my waist! (And they are all relatively new - I try to buy new ones every other month or so, for hygiene purposes.)
It's most annoying at night. I roll over in bed and my panties stay behind. Then I get all twisted up! But it's annoying during the day too ... when I'm walking through the library and feel my undies inching their way down. The only way to fix it is to dig inside my pants and hitch 'em up. Try doing that subtly in the stacks!
Too bad I can't afford Victoria's Secret anymore ... off I go to Target for a multi-pack of Hanes!
P.S. Yesterday wasn't the greatest of food days, although I didn't go out to eat. I made soup at home, kind of from scratch. I used chicken broth, black beans, Spanish rice, corn, chicken and green chilies and my own spice mix of cumin, red pepper and chili powder. It was yummy, but I know it was insanely high in sodium. Also, I'm pretty sure I went over in my calorie allowance, but I don't want to calculate it.
