A Belt with a Tucked in Shirt
I accept that the hot bodies displayed on television or magazine covers are totally unrealistic. I’m not an idiot and my self-esteem is okeedokee. In fact I just checked the dip stick and we’re good.
Yes I want health and that has become the main goal of my food choices and exercise. I’m 40 and that mantra has soaked in just fine.
Health not weight. Kay? So the funky diets are gone and I have embraced the goal of good health.
But I do have some vanity. My vain desire is this… I want to tuck in my shirt and then finish the look with a belt. I think that’s a reasonable goal. This was once a good look for me. See the picture. That was Spring Break 1990 in Daytona Beach.
I know I can’t look like that again.. for crying out loud I was 20. But I should be able to get to a point that I can tuck in my blouse and wear a belt. Right? Right?
Oh and if you were on Daytona Beach in 1990 and you whistled at me. Thank you. I’m holding on to that right now.
I think my goal is realistic… what’s your realistic goal?
I want my pants to no longer be short because my hips are wide! I want my shirts to not show chub on my back! I want to tie my shoes by bending straight over and not be in pain from the button digging in. =)
Heh… people have been asking me about my weight goal for quite a while now… When I started losing weight, I thought I’d be happy at a size 6… now I’m a size 4 and I’m still not happy…
Personally, I’d be happy if my dang baby-tummy went away. It doesn’t seem to matter how much weight I lose, my chest is shrinking at the same rate as my stomach, so even at a 4, I look rather fat. BUMMER.
Size 4!!! Wow. And Wannabe… totally agree on the back chub. Sick of that too. Totally.
Ha-ha! Are those z. cavarichi (sp?) pants??? I remember those being all the range when I was in high school (in 1990). Sadly, my big butt and hips could never properly fit into a pair. So, see – you’re already a step ahead of me!
I’ve actually started wearing shirts tucked in, even with a belt but also with a sweater open but on. Baby steps…
I’d like the tummy to go away too. That seems to be where every one of the last 25 pounds is hiding. Pilates here I come.
I want to be able to wear a pair of slacks without having to wear a pair of control top pantyhose underneath so my cellulite won’t show through. I know this is possible because I’ve seen other girls do it. Heck, to wear a dress with no stockings and not jiggle everyone out of the room? A girl can only dream….
I am high waisted so all my jiggledy stuff sits right below the beltline. Not good. I want that bicycle (street fatty size) tire G.O.N.E. But. You think your body starts to do you dirty in the 4th decade? Wait ’til you get halfway through your 50s. All your body systems start to play dirty with you and it is not FAIR, it is not funny, and I hate that I am still futzing around with watching what I eat at this point in my life.
When exactly does a gal get to relax and forget about losing that last 15 pounds? I really want to know.
I’m a teenager and not over wieght but I can’t seem to get rid of the cellulite on the back of my legs?
Are there any specific workouts that target that area. I need to know how to get rid of cellulite on thighs explained here.
thanks
