So I went to get a new bra. I was a 30HH. Fuck lives oh well. I gained a bit of weight so my measurements went up a bit. They went to 37 28 38. :( Oh well. I’m back on track now so it’s all good.
one of them ripped at the seams. Although I’m not a seamstress at all, I figured it doesn’t have to look attractive because it gets a pillowcase over it anyways. So I sewed it back up myself by hand. I got my 5 year old sweater back from the tailor, and I’m so so pleased. It looks brand new again. I decided to start buying better quality stuff and taking care of it. I found 2 local designers who makes timeless good quality clothing. Their stuff should easily last me 5-7 years, because of the good quality materials and craftsmanship. They are super expensive, but I wont be supporting sweat shops as much, it’s better for the environment, because I’m not supporting clothing companies that spew out toxic waste from their Chinese factories. I’ll look good, and it’ll be less money in the long run. I can buy maybe 10 pieces of good quality pieces of clothing, get them tailored to me, and I’ll look put together and classy. :) 10 pieces of good quality clothing at $148 each (which is actually ridiculously expensive, and very rare)it would cost me $1480. If I divide this by 6,(I’ve had cheaper clothes last me this long, so it’s an understatement, probably more like 10.) It’s $246 a year for clothing. I don’t know about you, but I spend more than that a year for cheaper, clothes that don’t look as nice that lose its colour in the washing machine, that I have to replace in 8 months.
I will be down to 130 lbs. Not bad… Not bad. So I guess that would be by March 15. :) If I do it for 2 months, I will be down to 125 by April 15. :) that would be my goal weight. I think this is very achievable.
been wearing as much makeup, and my skin has cleared up nicely. It’s not perfect, but better than it was.
Forever new, and I hand wash all of my bras. :) I’m thinking of handwashing all of my knit sweaters too. One I bought from Mexx before Christmas, started ripping at the arms. I wasn’t sure if the tailor could fix it because it was knit. When I got it back, I couldn’t even tell it had ever been ripped. I also got them to reinforce some of the really rare buttons on a cardigan I had. :) In case I ever lost one, I would never be able to replace those buttons. I washed the comforters on the spare bed, and my bed. :)
This is an important goal for me because I would like to become more fit. Unfortunately this is nearly impossible without a good sports bra. :)
I might have achieved this. I have an appointment for a bra fitting on Thursday, and I think I’m down to a 28H or even a 28G. Wouldn’t that be sweet? Thankfully my bra store carries 28 band sizes. Most places carry 32 or 30 as their smallest. :s When I get down a 26, I’ll have to get them altered. No big deal, I used to do that in highschool when I was a 26G. If this number sounds small to you, it might be because you are adding 4-5 inches. That’s ridiculous and outdated. Don’t do that. if I did that I would be a 32D. I would have double boob and be popping out terribly if I were a 32D. hahahaha. Don’t go to Victoria’s Secret to get fitted. They don’t know what they are doing.
I am down to my normal BMI. I was just saying that I look like a snowman in one of my other posts. I hate that. I really want to get rid of that damned fat around my hips.
I’m down to 135 lbs. Finally. lol. This goal nearly killed me. I kept getting to 136 then ballooning up to a 140. I’m finally down to 135 lbs. I’d like to keep going down from here. I was looking at myself in the mirror today, and I look like a snowman. Yes a snowman. I have big boobs, and then for about 3.5 inches from my boobs it’s nice and flat. then along my hips, my stomach balloons out. All around my hips is fat. I have a butt, that’s almost as big as my boobs, then really nice legs with the elusive gap between my thighs. It’s like a permamuffin-top. I am an hourglass with apple tendencies. thanks for fucking me over body. Thanks.
one inch off my bust. So I’m 36 27 37 now. Cool. I am currently wearing a 32 HH but it’s getting to big and I have an appointment for a bra fitting on Thursday. I think I might be at a 28H now. I know H sounds huge but I recently learned that the smaller the band size the less volume of boobs you have. So a 40H would have way bigger boobs than a 28H. :) So really, my boobs don’t look abnormally large. A 28 bamd size sounds small but it’s not really all that small. Most women wear to small of a cup and to big of a bandsize. So yeah… lol
is terrible for Vanity sizing. But I recently bought a pair of size 4 jeans there. They are a weee bit tight on the hips but they are perfect on the legs. I didn’t realize I was getting a size 4 because it was all in European sizing. So when I got home I checked it out. Now the size 7 jeans I bought at Simons are getting to loose. I think I am nearly at a size 6. Although only for jeans. In shirts a few of the smalls I got in September are looking baggy on me. I don’t know why.
a cloth with some silver polish on it. I polished all my silver jewelry. It looks great. I also washed my bath mat, instead of buying a new one. :) Today I’m picking up my sweaters from the tailor’s they should be ready.
been on my period. So I’m bloated. I am at 137 lbs. But I’m certain I will get here. I will give it another 3 days.
My boots to the shoe repair, and he did an excellent job! I am very pleased. They are sheep skin, so at the end of the winter I’ll take them again, to get a clean, and spray to make them more water resistant. I would like to keep them for 5 years or more, they are some great boots. I am taking my 4 year old sweater to the tailor. I love this sweater, but years of wash and wear have made it lose it’s shape. I think it’s fixable. I’ve washed my shower curtains instead of buying new ones. I put them in the washing machine with a bit of regular detergent, half a cup of baking soda. During the rinse cycle, I put in half a cup of vinegar. They look and smell great! I’ve washed my comforter, and I would like to wash my pillows. :) I would like to polish some of my silver jewelry.
So I’m at 37, 27, 37 now. I lost 4 inches off my waist. I just need one more to go. My waist to hip ratio is at 0.72 now. So that’s a bit closer to what I want.
I’ve been having issues with soap scum in the bathtub. I’ve been cleaning with vinegar, and it’s gotten rid of most of it, but there was always this mild ring that I could never get rid of. Finally someone told me about lemons and salt. Cut a lemon and half and put table salt on the fruity part of the fruit. Put the lemon directly on the soap scum and scrub. It’ll come off. When you’re finished, take a vinyl sponge, (not metal) and go over it. It comes off like magic. :)
