The Jeans from my college days . . . and post your motivating stories!
I really don't expect anyone that reads this to be very excited, but I'm so excited that I just have to write it out!!!
Well, one of the most motivating things that had started my desire to get in great shape was when I was cleaning out my closet and came across my favorite pair of jeans from college. Even though I'm now 27, I figured I would try on the jeans I wore at 18 . . . (OK, almost 10 years - I really really feel OLD)!
Suffice to say, it was NOT a good experience. I swear, I could NOT pull the jeans up over my knees! The only part of me fitting into those little legs was my calves... I mean, there was NO chance whatsoever that those things were goin up my thighs, let alone over my hips. It was really depressing. I mean, I understand I can't look 18 forever, but I'm only in my late 20s, and they weren't even CLOSE to fitting!
Anyway, after I started working out and lifting weights, the little jeans started going further and further up every time I tried them on.
As of last week, I can now say althought I can't button them yet, THEY GO ALL THE WAY ON!!!!!!!!!!!
And as of this week, I can ALMOST BUTTON THEM! I think within another couple of weeks, I will be able to zip and button my jeans from when I was 18! I'm really really really excited! I can't wait to wear them out, I really can't!
