Right folks, here we go. Apologies in advance if this gets long, but I'm in contemplative mood tonight. It's ever since I went on a bit of an impromptu shopping spree yesterday. All thanks to the NSV thread and people talking about skinny jeans. As I posted on there, I've always shied away from skinny jeans as I'm not very tall and have what I like to call "ample" hips. Anyway, so many people had mentioned how delighted they were to get into skinny jeans that I thought I'd give it a try and ended up buying some. Beige (not black!) and French size 36, which is a UK 8.
Which is all very well, but I have to confess, although they are lovely and comfy, they are a tad large on the waist, so will have to wear a belt. Now that's what got me thinking. Where am I really going to on my weight loss journey? The smallest size here in France is a 34, which is the next size down and frankly there is never much available in that size. So what's the point of losing any more weight?
Really the only point is to get to my target, which I set at 60 kilos. But that's just a random number plucked out of thin air that doesn't reflect anything "concrete", if you see what I mean? Part of me wants to do it to actually get to target and then there's another part of me wondering what's the point if I'm going to struggle to find clothes to fit?
I don't want this to sound like a moan, because I do know how lucky I am to have achieved what I have. There was a time when I was frustrated that I couldn't find any nice clothes that were big enough and now it's getting to be the opposite - on my bottom half at least. I am a C-cup, so there is no way I will ever be a size 8 or even a 10 there, unless it's really stretchy fabric
I'm not really sure why I'm posting this rather long and rambling post. Just a need to get something down on virtual paper, I suppose. Or some advice from anyone else with the same dilemma about their "target" weight. Maybe I should look to maintaining for a while until my body settles down.
Any comments or suggestions gratefully received, as I can't attend class, so don't have the benefit of discussing it with a consultant and/or other members of group.
