Following the conversation on another blog, I now have the full wicked witch of the west look as the purple shorts arrived today. The inner lycra is as stripy as they look in the pic. I can confirm that they do cover the flobbity inner thigh and they are true to size. No need to go up a size unless you are pushing the top end of the size.
I've decided not to care any more - anyone who is bothered enough to criticise the way I look needs to find something more interesting to do. The C25K program has helped me to think like this - as a child I was so shy my mum sent me to a speech therapist to help me gain the confidence to talk to people !
I'm going to buy some and work my butt off to feel good wearing them
Upto 2 weeks ago I didnt care what anyone thought about how I look (I didn't go stupid and wear short shorts or anything though), then I got weighed! It went rapidly wrong from then I gave up smoking 7 weeks ago and my weigh in set my self esteem back several weeks I'm beginning to get back to not giving a damn but it's still up and down days. I will be fine and will be able to shake my new skinny ass in the near future and laugh myself now
Well done on quitting smoking. You will be fab soon if you are not already
I got very depressed, put on weight, got depressed etc etc and ended up at 21.5 stone (I'm 5'3). Good for you for catching it before it went too far. I have lost 10 stone in the past year, still have another 2 to go and finding it so hard at the moment, I just don't have the same motivation that I had at the beginning.
I think we will have a have a skinny ass shaking competition at the meet in September
Maybe they do do dishes its just that we haven't found the button yet! They certainly look like you could cast spells in them
I wear M&S basic cotton magic pants (marksandspencer.com/Pack-Fi... and still would under these. I have lost soooo much weight that I have a bit of a baggy belly which I needs to be kept under control! Tops of my thighs are a bit yuk too but it takes about a year for the skin to shrink back so I'm stuck with it for a while.
I got a pair of Karrimor size 14 shorts at the same time and they are stupidly tight! So watch out for their sizing.
