Take the clothes! Please!

Lots of stuff still up for grabs! Tell your friends! Come on girls, don't make me lug all this stuff to Chicago in September!

Attention, sisterhood! I have pants for you!

This morning I got a little sidetracked from exercising (I know, I know), and I tried on every last thing in my closet. It is All. Too. Big. I know, right? I now have one pair of khakis to my name and more jeans than I know what to do with. I kept two sweater sets and three cardis I bought over the winter, but that's about it. My closet is bare!

I didn't take pics of the dress pants, but here's the lowdown:

• Black Lane Bryant dress pants, boot cut, size 22
• Black Lane Bryant dress pants, straight leg, size 20
• Gray Lane Bryant dress pants, straight leg, size 20
• Khaki Lane Bryant dress pants, straight leg, size 20 (these fit a little smaller than the other 20s)
• Khaki Lane Bryant capris, size 20
• Two pairs of casual Lane Bryant khakis, size 20 (below)
  

And here are the shirts:

•  Lace shirt, sleeveless, Lane Bryant, size 22/24 (freshly drycleaned!)
  
  
• Crochet trim black tank, Lane Bryant, size 22/24. It's hard to see in the pic, but it's a v-neck with a keyhole. The crochet trim goes all the way around the neckline. It's a very fine crochet and a shiny knit. I wore it out to dinner once or twice.
  
  
• Short sleeve swing cardigan, Dress Barn, size 2X. There are two of these: seafoam and black. I only took a pic of the black one. Taken!
  

Please take them! I will take requests till Sunday, then my hubby will have a conniption if I don't have them out of the house. Also, don't be shy, I'd rather send two or three larger packages than a bunch of smaller ones. Pass the word!

I feel a whine coming on...

I'm going to try to be objective here, if only to save my own sanity.

It's early  Tuesday morning. Why am I up in the middle of the night? Aside from my ever worsening sleep, tonight hubbo decided to eat too much pizza before he went to bed and woke up choking on some especially nasty acid reflux. Whenever this happens (not very often), I have to get up and manage the situation (make him take some pepto and prop himself up), otherwise he will come right back to bed and cough and burp all night. Tonight, after the "management," we were trying to go back to sleep, and he was moaning. I was all "what is the matter? Are you still feeling sick?" And he's all "No, I'm just sleepy." OMG, really? Me too. So, I moved myself to the couch, where I was still unsuccessfull at falling asleep. And here I am. Was that whiny?


Lately, I haven't been feeling very good. I'm not sure if it's my gall bladder (coming out Wednesday, by the way) or something else. Here's the lowdown, and you can tell me what you think: not sleeping well, hair falling out like crazy, extra tired, frequent urges to pee and nothing there, bloating and tenderness in my abdomen. I seriously got to the point where I thought I might have miraculously concieved (Mike got snipped in April, and I am on the pill), so I peed on a stick. Negative. Really, the odds would have been astronomical.

I don't know what my deal is. I've been trying to eat less junk, so I can at least eliminate poor diet as the cause. It really reached a high (or low) point last night. I was just feeling miserable. Who knows, maybe I will feel eight bazillion times better after surgery.

If you missed my last post, I have two pairs of size 20 shorts for the sisterhood. Check it out!

Shorts for the Sisterhood!

I have two pairs of size 20 shorts I would like to pass on.
1) Jean shorts by Style&Co (I think these are from Macy's?). They hit right above the knee on me (I'm 5'4"). They are just plain jean shorts, no designs, no pleats.
2) Khaki pedal pushers by Sonoma (Kohls). These have a seam down the middle of each leg, and they also have these little snap straps on the sides of the legs so you can roll them up to make them shorter and they stay that way.

 If you are interested, send me an email at leavingfatland at gmail dot com. Also, if you read this would you mind posting a linky on your blog? I don't have a ton of followers, so if no one here wants them, it'll get out to a wider audience.

 So, I forgot I was supposed to be blogging my food right now. I'll admit I've pretty much given up on the month of July. So much for those goals. My heads is just not in it right now. Only six more days till gall bladder surgery, then my fill on Aug 2nd, so I'll be back in the game soon. Maybe it's good to take a month off. Yeah, I'll keep telling myself that.

This is yesterday. It wasn't so bad.
B: 1/2 cup granola type cereal with milk, 1/2 Chobani yogurt
L: turkey sandwich
S: snack bag of Doritos, chocolate chip cookie (at different times)
D: about 3/4 cup of Teriyaki Chicken from PeiWei.

I've been terrible about getting liquids in, and it really needs to be a priority with this bladder infection. This morning I woke up at 4am to pee, then still felt like I had to go, so I couldn't go back to sleep. It's very annoying.

Sisterhood of the traveling underpants?

In my quest to find new undergarments, I bought a 3-pack at Target and they are just not doing it for me. I tried on one pair over my current undies, so there is no nastiness! I will post details soon along with some jeans. Oh yeas, people. I dug up some pantalones from our basement closet. I am fitting into 18s now, dontcha know. I think it's about time to say sayonara to my size 22 jeans from the LB. If this is sounding weird, it's because I just had me a big ol' margarita, and I need to go sleep it off!
