  • Re: Clothes Challenge: Muffin Butts Welcome

    I got my challenge jeans, on, zipped up and almost buttoned. This was standing up. Probably could have buttoned them while lying down, but I want them to fit comfortably by the end of this challenge. Wahoo! I couldn't get them even close to closed when I took those pictures!



    This challenge ROCKS!

    Sunny!

      omg, i cant even imagine this big belly being smaller. I think I might go back to bootcamp class. It really takes the inches off. I'll check it out tomorrow.

        Woo hoo, Sunny! Keep up the awesome work you're doing!

        Meaty---I'm in the same frame of mind as you, but about my butt...it seems to grow every time I look at it in the mirror. ugh..

        ---------------------------------------------------------------

        No pounds to report in yet, hubby's still holding my scale hostage, but I've lost 3 1/2 inches this past week.

            That's cool, Disco! I can only have a fantasy about having a smaller belly(ies...top and bottom).

                        I am so far behind on this thread--I hope I catch up sometime.

                        I tried on my muffin butt pants this morning--I don't know if I'll make it by Thanksgiving or not. Anyway, I'll be closer than if I quit trying! I did get them all the way up on my hips--still have about 6 inches before they actually meet to fasten, though. I'm down another pound from last week.

                        I also tried on my "going away" outfit from when I got married 25 years ago. I could actually get it on and fastened! Probably 5 more pounds gone will make it look better, but I didn't pop any buttons. So, I haven't been this size in 25 years--who would have thought that when I started this February 21st with pretty low expectations that I would have done so well. Not me!

                          Caryl, Thanksgiving is a looooong time away. You never know what you might achieve by then. You said yourself that you had low expectations when you started this in February, and look at you now! Girl, you are an inspiration. I love that we are so close in age, and re-started at almost the same time. You have lost a ton of weight and have a lot to be proud of. And like you said, even if you don't get into the pants you will be really close.

                          I haven't tried on my muffin butt pants since the start of the challenge. DH was just asking me yesterday if I had tried them yet... he said he would do it weekly. I would rather wait until halfway through the challenge, I think. I mean, I am curious, but I don't want it to mess with my head if I don't see a difference. I only weigh once a week for the same reason.

                          Disco - nice job on the shrinking tummies!

                          Liz! 3 Pounds?! Way to go... you've been on a roll... roll on!

                          Sunny, your muffin butt pants are going to be falling off of you.

                          Meaty, what kind of bootcamp have you done?

                          See ya!

                            Thanks, Mitzie! You're a sweetie--it's good to know that even if we are a "certain age" we can still lose weight and look hot. I like to try on smaller clothes to keep me motivated and since this last week was tough in so many ways, I needed to see that there was a difference in the way things fit. I've lost so much that there's just a couple of things I CAN try on that are too small and my muffin butt pants are one of them. I haven't tried them on since we started this and I just wanted to see if there was a difference.

                            We'll make it to goal sooner or later and our pants will look awesome!

                              I am also only trying on my before outfit when the challenge is done , I know I will get more curious, but I definately do not wanne feel dissapointed , I WANT a big surprise! .. so I will wait till this challenge is done to hopefully "slip" into my pre muffin butt outfit!
