so i am a month from having surgery and following my diet well. took my son (who is wanting a new car) out looking at cars and having a good time. I was looking at a car that i would love to get - but thats not why i am posting.
you see - the car i want is a somewhat pricey 2 seater - and i asked the salesman to take him on a quick ride while i was looking at other models. as i am standing in the showroom - my shorts became magnetic or something and fell to the floor. i didnt catch them with my knees - it was a full-on lets have jeff show his underwear to everyone in the dealership.
so - would you be proud youve lost enough weight to warrant new shorts??? or just embarrassed that your somewhat loose shorts fell in front of God and everybody??
im laughing - so its okay for yall to do the same - LOL

It could have been worse, you could have been "going commando".
Inside some of us is a thin person struggling to get out, but they can usually be sedated with a few pieces of chocolate cake.

Proud. But glad it wasn't me.

Did you remember MOMS advise about always wearing clean underwear in case you have an accident?
