^_^ The point is... I lost 4 frickin' pounds this week. O_O Go stomach flu. ^_^ (Yeah, ask me how sick I was this week. Really. O_O I was so dizzy from nausea and the shakes that I actually passed out on the bathroom floor. -.-;;; New life experience: passing out... not as much fun as touted, actually.) That puts me at a grand total of 64 lbs... and a mere 11 pounds away from the top of my healthy weight ranger range. (Yeesh. Apparently, my subconscious wants to work on a PR fic... Bad subconscious. O_O) Hot damn. ^_^ Also... dude. I fit consistently into size 10 jeans now and I was able to button, zip and sit down in a pair of size 8 corduroys. @_@;;; I can't speak for the rest of you, but I'm floored. And happy. And my waist is frickin' 34 1/2 inches. XD When I started it was closer to 43 inches. *does the happy dance* And I almost fit into a pair of my mom's old jeans... which are a size 14.
What do you think, girls? Clothing manufacturers playing a hell of a trick on us to try to convince us that overweight is the new average? I sure as hell think so. When I comfortably fit into those jeans, I'll be wearing a size 8 in current sizes. They're a 14. This stuns me. And saddens me a little. As a country, our "average" size has gotten 3-4 sizes fatter than it was 40 years ago. That's kind of sad. Talk about lowering the average to meet the masses. O_o;;; And what really stuns me is that, as a whole, we haven't noticed the change. *twitch*
OK, but enough babbling about weight loss. Must babble about something else. Thanks to being bedridden for two days (and the fact that it's blessedly on Hulu, right now), I've been rewatching Jeremiah. I forgot how much I adore that series. It even makes Luke Perry kind of tolerable. ^_^ I think I will end up having to fic for it, because, dude... Marcus just demands some fic attention. Really.
And really... most of you won't know the series and won't care about the babbling, but I feel the need to babble anyway.
( So, would someone just read and smile and nod for me? It'd make me feel better about the babbling at no one thing. ^_^ )
Duuuuude. And now I want Jeremiah icons. Hey,
zoicite, if I find good pictures, would you oblige me? ;D
