An perfectly good NSV - RUINED!

Well, I bought me some "skinny jeans" a few months ago - they were on the clearance rack at Old Navy - only 5 bucks. They were significantly too small for me, but I thought "what the heck" at that price, it will be a good motivator.
Well, guess what? I fit in 'em now!
You'd think that's a good thing, but...
A 50 year old man looks quite ridiculous in skinny jeans. (Well, THIS 50 year old man looks ridiculous in 'em, at least.)
Oh well.

Bwah ha ha ha ha... I'm sorry. This is funny. Maybe you could sell them on e-bay for $10? :flowerforyou: Congrats on your success though.0

ALL men look ridiculous in skinny jeans... unless you're a Beatle? LOL!0 -
Haha, at least wear them around your house in pride! That's great!0

This made me giggle. THEY FIT! Thats all that matters. Go grocery shopping in there. Go get gas in your car. Do SOMETHING in them to make it worth while!0

If it helps any, I have always thought "skinny jeans" are way over rated. I can't wait for them to go back out of style. LOL0
-
Congrats on your weight loss success anyway! :happy:0
-
Congrats on fitting into them! Not to many men can wear skinny jeans and get away with it. I am glad you can fit into them though!0
-
LOL--grats for the NSV, but sorry that the jeans aren't quite 'you'. I think the only people that look good in men's 'skinny jeans' are smaller stature Asian men and those Caucasians that have more of the 'Brit look to them. And don't even get me started on the people that sag their skinny jeans (hate sagging jeans anyways, but skinny sagging...UGH! lol)0
-
LOL! Very very few people look good in skinny jeans...at least you can admit it!0
-
Are you sure you look terrible in them?? Post a picture for us to judge you! Either way, you look great and your success is very inspiring!0
-
you still fit in them..thats great!! I tried on skinny jeans once.. i hate them.. I don't care how skinny I get.. I don't like pants hugging my ankles!0

Men shouldn't wear skinny jeans ever. But good job. For those who hate men in skinny jeans (and all that stands for):

Take a pic, and then ebay them. You've done great!!0
-
I bet you look like a rock star!0
-
Bwahahaha! You can always save them for Halloween and go as Justin Bieber.0
-
If Danny Devito can rock them, you can too!0
-
Hate the skinny jeans but, good job on the weight loss.0
-
lol this cracked me up!!! Congrats on fitting in the jeans, sorry you don't feel great in them haha XD0
-
Aww,C'mon! You look Rock-N-Roll. Take a picture in them and let us all be the judge...I love that about us! Great,honest and loving advice.:flowerforyou:0
-
HAHA! Eh, only $5 right? A lesson learned and you were able to learn it through hard work!! Congrats on your brief moment of skinny-jean-dom!0
-
Skinny jeans don't look good on any man, 50 years old or not, haha. I used to sell jeans in Macy's, and I'd laugh at the teenagers that used to come in and try on the women's jeans, because it never made sense to me. But congrats on fitting in yours, anyway!0
-
LOL..I say what the hay...WEAR EM ANYWAY!!! Even if it's just around the house!0
-
Frame them with a card stating the date, your stats, etc. and hang it on a wall. That way you don't have to wear them but you'll get a flush of pride that you -can- (but choose to be tasteful). Plus it'll be a reminder to keep the weight from coming back.0
-
hee hee hee!
hang on to them and go as Mick Jagger or Steven Tyler for Halloween this year!0 -
Rock 'em like you're 25!! Age is a state of mind!!! My granny is 100 yrs old and doesn't look a day over 80. She still gets her hair done every two weeks. If she wore jeans she would prbly rock 'em!! This is the new you! Celebrate!!!0

What a deal....congrats...0

Who cares how the skinny jeans look :-) You did it so you freaking kick *kitten*!!0
-
I'm 50 this year and I love my skinny jeans (mind you they are probably not skinny/skinny because they are for curvacious ladies).

Congrats! Great story, by the way.0

That mental image made me giggle. Well done on the weight loss.:laugh:0
