My supportive undergarments have begun to fall off, and sadly, I do not mean my drawers. Since I stopped breast-feeding, and I stopped producing milk, everything went back to normal. The size “D” I had been flaunting (yes, flaunting), has resumed it’s humble “B” status. Perhaps two inches lower, and perhaps possibly a “C”, but most certainly not the booming bosom of a month ago. When it’s over it’s over!
My metabolism is also faulty now. No longer are the days of eating whatever I craved until I felt full. No longer are the days, either, when only a little will satisfy me. There was a time when I could never, ever — even when I was self-proclaimedly “starving” — eat an entire sandwich at a restaurant. When I got pregnant two years ago, though, my appetite necessarily increased, and has not resumed its waif-model habit of yore.
Now I have to work out and avoid simple carbs.
So how’s this for awesome: a shrinking chest and growing gut. Welcome, 33rd birthday in ten days, I’ve never felt older.
As I mentioned before, though, my undergarments aren’t all falling off of me these days, or being tugged off either. Without the HD around to witness my pear-shaped defeat it feels less depressing. I have four more months to retrain my body to hopefully look its best when next I have the pleasure of losing all my undergarments.
