It's time to diet

Not only did someone congratulate me on my [non-existent] pregnancy two weekends ago, but last night I split my pants (jeans, no less) when I sat down in our car after the Death Cab concert.

Mr. Mo simply remarked, "At least it happened after the concert."

Yeah!

Re: It's time to diet

  • My jeans *were* remarkably comfortable after the rip, though.

    Indecent.

    But comfy.

  • gotta love mr. monkey.

    best response by a husband, ever.

  • I once split the lining of one of my work pants.  Thank goodness it was only the lining, but it still sucked.  They were my favorite pants at the time.

    My pants also felt much more comfy after the rip, hehe.

  • He is a definitely a good match for me.

    This happened to me eight years ago when I was demonstrating at work the moves to NSync's "Bye Bye Bye."

    Everybody heard the rip.

    Good times.

    After that, I only wore skirts to work, except for the occasional pantsuit.

    Yeah!

    Yes to Mr. Monkey....kudos for the practical response!

    No  to dieting! Dieting sucks....plus you go on such fun food excursions!

  • it's probably a good time to diet since the blog is MIA.  ;(

    my jeans ripped (I'm blaming them on being too old, TYVM) and a tailor was able to fix them.  you know, so you can wear them again post diet!

  • Yeah, cutting down on eating is like death to food blogging.

    And I am seriously considering the tailor option because these were my fave jeans.

    do it.  I even brought my jeans back to CA over christmas because I don't know where there is even a tailor here.

  • This is going to sound stupid, but I even have a little bit of a sentimental attachment to these jeans.

    Many years ago, when we were first dating, we were in San Francisco.  I was really cold, so we headed into a Banana Republic.  He bought me these jeans, which I promptly wore out of the store.

    They don't even make this style anymore.

    Yeah, I'm keeping these.  I just need to figure out where to take them.

  • I don?t think that?s stupid? it?s actually very sweet. 

     

    I?m going to have to check YouTube for the NSync video because I can?t remember their dance moves.  It sounds like you put on a good show for your coworkers, minus the pants ripping of course.

  • you KNOW that doesn't sound stupid to my sappy ass.  i'd keep 'em too.

    i still have the shirt i wore when the hub kissed me the first time.  the teen was so grossed out when i told her why i refuse to get rid of it.

  • a good pair of jeans (nicely broken in) is worth a few hundred bucks, IMHO.  bonus they have sentimental value.

  • awww....not stupid at ALL I'd keep them in a heartbeat! I agree that you should go ssinca's route and get a tailor to fix them!

    I can't believe people still do this. I would NEVER EVER EVER say anything unless I knew for certain someone was pregnant!

    you know, funny story about that. I was at a party/gtg with people from MH's company and this woman was talking to me and staring at me hardcore. Finally we go to the part in the convo where I had to bring up that we were expecting our first ( she asked me if we had children) an she replied " oh  I'm so glad you said something because...well you can't be too sure"....what makes that funny to me is that I am 8 months pregnant and very very obviously showing. However, I did appreciate her politeness :)

  • People are_assholes, I swear.  I will never, ever ask someone if they are pregnant, even if they are 8 months along.  You seriously never know.

    Diets suck, dude.  I need to get on one, too.  I can't even fit into most of my pants.  :(


    After 2 rounds of IVF & 2 rounds of FET, we were blessed with identical twin girls!

  • poor jeans.
    mr. monkey rocks.
    i have a rec in the LBC and one on the westside.  my downtown rec is too ghetto for sentimental jeans.
  • My frugality completely trumps what little sentimentality I have.

    Send me the downtown rec!

    hello, you have a reason for not being able to fit into your pants!!!  silly girl.

  • Yeah, I just have a food baby.
    Not a real baby...despite what strangers may think.
  • Aw, Weemo, I totally feel your pain!  My belly has been growing too much lately.  The button on my work pants made a very visible mark on my stomach after being pressed against it so tightly.  Fail. :(
