Two more weeks and I'm back to the workforce. This is the time that I have been dreading to come. No, not the going back to work (not really!) but the fitting of my pre-pregnancy clothes. I have been planning to do this a few days back but this morning I finally got the courage to actually get my clothes from the closet and tried them on. I inhaled deeply before trying them on, hoping (and praying) that they will fit. As I put on some of my longsleeves, they won't even go past my arms. To my dismay, I didn't continue fitting my tops since it is hopeless and I'll just be more upset. Next, I tried on 12 pairs of pants... and 10 of them won't go past above my knee. But, I have 2 pants that I was able to pull up - up to the waist.. but unfortunately, it wont zip. Whhaahhhh!Oh no, this is not a good sign... This definitely sounds like a shopping emergency. I just hope that there are mid year SALE at the malls this weekend so I can at least buy some decent fitting work clothes and won't drain my credit card limit.
Another thing is that, I hate looking at mirrors. All I see is an overweight mom that needs to get her act together and eat less, go to the gym and exercise. I already lost 19 lbs of my preggy weight but I still have 21 more pounds to loose to get back to my post pregnancy weight. Gosh, just by doing the math, I'm already loosing hope of getting back into shape in time for my friend's wedding in December.
... I can do this... I have to... if I still want to fit into my old clothes. Sigh!
