Having returned from a wonderful holiday and whilst there feeling my trouser/jeans were a little big on me, i ventrued into my local sainsburys and grabbed a size 12 bootlegged jeans and made my way to the changing room. I looked at the jeans hanging on the hanger with fear but thought no i am going to try and just face my dissapiontment at home. To my amazment the slipped up over my ample hips , button slipped into the whole and zip went up. No need for lying in a bed and pulling for dear life. I grinned and felt amazed , put them back on the hanger and walked out ( no money post holiday). Over the last 24 hours i convined myself that it was a one off, the Tu range must come up big and i am kidding myself, so this evening i went to Tesco ( last of the big spenders me ). I took 3 pairs of jeans into the chnaging room and a normal work type pair. First pair to try , another bootleg, they fitted. Second pair a normal straight fit , they fitted , thrid pair a skinny pair ( no way i hear you say) , they fitted. Lastly the work pair of non denim trousers , they fitted . Shocked , i returned them all to the racks ( still no money). Why confused you ask? Well sized 12 jeans are worn by slim people and i dont see a slim person when i see myself in my head. Yes i do get shocked by reflection sometimes and loved all my holiday photo's cos they caught me at a good angel but how can i be a sized 12 on my bottum half. Top half still 14-16 thanks to saggy boobs etc and cant see much change there despite wanting another 18 pounds off. I am really that person i have looked at over the years and longed to be?
