I don't know about you if you have noticed it but when Dh & I were in the States this past May the clothing sizes have changed since we were in the States Nov 07. I couldn't fit into the new jeans that were the same size that I had on when we flew to the States I had to go up 2 sizes that made me a very unhappy camper especially after all the exercising & proper diet I had to done the year & half since we had had been home last. I figured I would have at least went down a size but no I went up 2 sizes.

I had to go up a size, but that's because I thought I've gained weight.

$:-\\\\$ I read an interview with an Irish rugby player and he said he has to buy jeans in the US because he can't find jeans in Ireland that fit over his rugby-player thighs. If only I could use rugby as my excuse..... Personally, I try not to get myself worked up over sizes, but everyone's a little bit vain, right!? Don't worry about it Shugga, just tell yourself they've changed the cut of the jeans in the past two years. It's not your fault!

My Dh tried to tell me its just a number don't worry about it that went down like a lead ballon lol.

but what helped me keep going to gym & doing my proper diet was that I was going to be able to get smaller size clothes not go up 2 sizes it was a bit disheartening.

At least I got out of eating at the Cracker Barrel! That's a danger zone! I just ran in, bought the peanut brittle, and ran back out!

I ALWAYS go to Cracker Barrel when I'm in Harrisburg! It's like a family tradition now.

Just bought two lindy t-shirts over the weekend. And this morning I bought a bagel with egg and cheese.

A Sophie Conran candle for my cousin's birthday, some pretty pencils and paper for my aunt, a purse and chocolate for a friend's birthday, and book and a hairband for her daughter's birthday. And giftwrap, ribbon and cards. And some face cream and serum for me.
