Another Setback

Posted on by RedHeadMess

I went clothe shopping again… and I know this really doesn’t have to do with fitness…

It’s just beyond frustrating when I try and shop for pants/shorts. And here starts my downfall… Like I’ve been pretty strict with my calories. I don’t really drink pop or sweet tea anymore. I don’t really snack or eat any chocolate. I used to eat chocolate at LEAST once a day! I go to the gym 4 to 6 days a week, sometimes everyday. This has been going on pretty strong since the beginning of March and half ass since January, it’s now almost June. I needed to buy new shorts cause I can’t really fit in any of mine from last summer, and I want new ones for the cruise in 2 weeks. I grabbed the higher of my normal size cause I’m too lazy to bring 2 sizes of the same pair to the dressing room lol. AND GUESS FUCKING WHAT?! They don’t fit, like popped can of biscuits don’t fit… I am now the owner of the largest pair of shorts I’ve ever owned. It makes continuing this fitness journey very hard. Why?! I’ve been breaking my back trying to lose the littlest of weight and I freaking can’t. Why not go back to being a slob and enjoying food and still being the same size??? At least I would be a happy fat ass… I’ll keep being strong for now but my crazy fitness life might have a shelf life.

Shopping

Shopping is always an annoying task when you are not skinny.

So I’ve been talking about going to the pool at my gym for awhile now. Small ish problem… I only have bikinis… more than I would like to admit too. I went to Walmart to grab a cheap bathing suit. Let’s be really real Walmart has cheap ass bathing suits. I’m not about to ruin one of my $40 suits at a high chlorine pool. If it dies, it dies. I’ll just grab another one next Spring. Sadly, after trying on the only 4 decent ones that were in my size… I found one lol! It looks like that traditional grandma bathing suit with flowers all over it. It comes up to my ribs in the back! I’ve never been this covered to go swimming before, AND I’M A GINGER! It’s not horribly ugly or anything. It’s just something I’ve never worn before or I thought I wouldn’t at this age lol. I’ll be swimming this Tuesday or Thursday… I can’t wait to add swimming to my workout routine for something need and I have bad knees.
