I had an interesting experience yesterday. <\/p>\n
A few months ago I grew out of my jeans. I could kind of still wear them but they were too small through the thighs. So I ordered two new pairs of jeans. The new jeans were the right size in the thigh but too big in the waist. Regardless, I needed jeans with the added fabric in the thigh so I just wore the jeans with a belt to keep the waist tucked in (All the while grousing to myself that I needed to do something about this.. and yet not actually doing anything).<\/p>\n
Then I started clean eating.. and yesterday morning I tried on a bunch of my formerly-to-small jeans to see if any of them were fitting again. They did and I was giddy with happy trying on the different pairs (my jean selection just went from 2 to 6). Then I put on a pair of the old smaller jeans and stood there holding the two pairs of old big jeans and had an argument with myself.<\/p>\n
Ducal is next weekend. All my donations whether it be kitchenware or clothes go to Ducal. BUT I’m conflicted. Do I put these in the donate pile now.. or keep them for a while? I’m not planning to back slide to that larger size.. but I -just- shrunk out of those jeans. It seems foolhardy to move them to the donate pile so quickly.. and at the same time I feel guilty keeping them. If I keep them I’m saying “I think I might give up what I’m doing now and need these big fat jeans so I will keep them”. Although that’s NOT what I’m thinking.. I just kind of want to keep them around until I shrink down to the next size. Is that so bad?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
