Thank you so much for this. I always read your blog and never comment, but I really did need to hear this. I was actually feeling this way today about my jeans before 2 kids. It’s kind of sad how satan has so much power over us with weight. Making us feel fat and down, but that scripture is so true. We will be perfected and I truly can’t wait! Thank you again.

High-waist jeans – you mean MOM JEANS – ugh. Even tho’ I’m NOT your size (or age for that matter), I wouldn’t be caught dead with “THEM” jeans – lol :)

I’ve kind-of, stubbornly accepted this is my body after 3 kids. I don’t think I’ll ever be back to my pre-college size but as long as the clothes look good on me, the number doesn’t matter right? At least that’s what I’m telling myself.

I think JS is prego…but that’s still no excuse for wearing those jeans. Fugly!

I like you.

I hear ya girl! Aren’t we lucky to have the scriptures! But seriously, even if Jessica Simpson gained some weight, she could have chosen something a little more flattering. And it’s not just the jeans, the whole outfit is ugLY

Ha, thanks for all the responses and support, ladies!! Sometimes I feel a little iffy putting this type of stuff out there, but it’s wonderful to hear that I’m not alone!!

And Heather, thanks for saying hello! Perspective is always good. I just need to remember my own words when I have one of those “fat” days myself.

Mom, I swear I’ve seen many old pics of you wearing high-waisted, super-crazy bell-bottomed jeans similar to those! Am I right, or am I right?

you are a hooot and so brave those are the moments that I tuck away and swear not to talk about until the jeans fit………… we miss you, you have been MIA park tomorrow?

Oh pu-leeeeese.
You have no reason to complain.

(But we all do it, don’t we?)

O-kay, what size are those? 00? Please, Jenn, you’re gorgeous (with or without those jeans)!

Susanna, I know. I’ll shut my trap now. : )

And Monique: thank you! And no, they’re not double zeros, but I will admit that I used to be a skinny Asian twig!

You still are a skinny Asian twig:) I would add that you are funny too!

I’m Asian and I was NEVER a twig. I think I went straight from a size 6x to a woman’s size 4 as a young girl… But, I still understand your plight…

10 years from now you’ll look back at that photo and say “What was I complaining about??”

I wish I was just double, instead of triple the size of a skinny Asian twig! ha.

Oh, and those grandma jeans on Jessica HAVE to go!! The tank top is hideous. I felt much better about myself after seeing that pic. Thanks for making me feel good:-)

I know how you feel! But you still look awesome to us & me not so much! :)

amen sista, well said.

I understand… I too have a pair of jeans that I know fit prior to Jake and I will pull them out every once in awhile to see how they are fitting. Now for me, the jeans are no longer in style but its my gauge. I haven’t gotten them out in years. But I know where they are and I’m feeling kind of curious now.

High-waisted, bell-bottom jeans???? No darling pie, maybe bell-bottoms, but never, ever, high-waisted – ewe …. and don’t you dig up any pictures either :)

You’re still skinnier than anyone I know!

Moi aussi! I just gave them away to a tinier friend than I :) I’m over it…the hips widened…whatever! You still look awesome and that’s what matters!
