TOPS not for me

As great as TOPS (taking pounds off sensibly) has been for my sis Tina, it is not for me.
I am not saying that I couldn't stand to lose a few pounds, but I will say that I would feel awkward the first time would go. For some reason people never understand my need to lose weight. "What? You?" Is usually what I get. That is, until they see me in a bathing suit. Which at this point in my life is pretty rare. I try to wear clothes that are flattering (wow, what a concept). Not like some who insist on wearing low rise jeans and have their bellies hanging over. "Oh, but they are sooo comfortable!" yeah, because they are allowing your fat to roll free! I don't wear mini skirts or crop tops, and I do my best to not try so hard to be trendy and well, young! I am 41, soon to be 42 and so no, I am not young and hip anymore. I wear nice jeans, t-shirts and on occasion, capri's or shorts. All in all, I look ok, not super svelt (not tall enough anyway), nor do I feel I look petite anymore, which was my norm as a younger me. But I also don't look like I am in anyway an "old" or "frumpy" person. Believe me, my daughter Kaleigh would tell me if I did! She once said a certain outfit looked like Grandma's (Carl's mom, who by the way dresses conservative but nice). Needless to say that one went out for the next garage sale. Not quite ready for that! So, in otherwords, I am pretty happy with the size 8 that I am, and I am doubtful that that will change anytime soon. Although, next year I may have some time to go to the gym and get a bit of a workout. If I ever get back to size 6, I will be pretty happy, I will let everyone know too!
