I, like most curvy women out there am a fan of Spanx. I have been wearing them for as long as I can remember, long before Spanx was even a company. I’m actually not a huge fan of the Spanx brand (except of course the crotch hole that magically opens when you sit to pee – magical!) because they always seem to go all the way up to my boobs which is not comfy. I prefer mine to just cover my belly and suck it and my butt in enough to stop the jiggling. I don’t think that is too much to ask.
I have worn them the last 2 days because it got hot and humid and I decided to wear dresses. I don’t remember the last time I wore a dress without some sort of undergarment. Mayhaps it was 6 years ago when I still weighed 145 pounds (oh, those were the good old days) but damned if I remember so lets move on. I feel better than I have in a long time about my body and I’m actually looking forward to dressing for summer this year. It’s nice to drop Nate off at daycare and have the ladies tell me how nice I look. The same thing happened at work this week but it is always a double edged sword. On the one hand I am being complimented for looking good which is fantastic and on the other it makes me realize that I must look like a slob the rest of the time. Everyone has assured me that I always look nice but have looked even better this week. I will push aside my worries and take it as a nod to my increased effort to get out of the house without looking like the mother of a young child.
Even famous people wear Spanx...Lisa Lampanelli has a WHOLE drawer devoted to them!
Now that's a lot of Spanx!
This is my new back yard garden which is still a work in progress as of today - the lily was supposed to be pink!!!
(sorry for the awkwardness of the photo, I was looking down off my deck)
This is my original back yard garden. Once everything blooms it will be really pretty :)
