Let's have another honest moment here, if it weren't for Mr. S and the laws of the land, I would probably marry sweatpants. Some people smoke crack, I wear sweatpants.
It began with a little extra poundage in high school. You know those years when you were supposed to be learning how to be pretty and coordinate your outfits? Um yea, I was wearing grey Old Navy sweatpants to school, because I had just “too much going on” to worry about checking out my toosh before I walked out the door. Nah, I was above that! Those silly pretty girls!
Then came the Victoria’s Secret PINK line, and dang, they made sweats HOTT! Not only can I wear sweatpants, but I look cool because they are from the VS. VS are the makers of sexy right? They must make sexy sweatpants! No, no little lady, they don’t.
More sweats found their way to my closet, so did more weight on my ass. I thought the sweatpants hid all the extra “skin” I was accumulating, so it was really win-win. Comfort and coverage.
One day I came to the realization that I was fat. Not just a little fat, but f-a-t. I didn’t even own a pair of jeans that fit! Something must be done.
I lost 40 pounds.
That was two and a half years ago, and I have keep all but five of those dang big-mac pounds off. However, although I bought prettier clothing, I look a better in jeans, and I can wear some dang sweet duds to the office; the sweatpants still call my name.
After a recent camping trip, I heard rumor of snoop sweats hiding in the back of my love’s closet. Navy blue. You don’t say!! It was love at first thought; he didn’t even mind that I stole them really. I wore them for 4 days straight.
I decided this morning after sleeping in them that I could probably gain 100 pounds and they would still fit. No joke.
After much consideration I have decided to cut back on the sweatpant time.
Maybe I should start seeing my hind-end the way the world sees it while wearing something other than sweatpants.
(Here is the visual, these pants arn't made for white girls from Sandy. A rapper designed them for crying out loud! Holla!)
