Pants - NSV

Back in high school and college, I was a 38-inch waist. About 5-10 years ago, I managed to get things down to 32 inches and stay there for awhile, but in the last two years, I started to get fat. That's why I'm here again.
When I was lazy, I just bought new pants, but a size up: 34 inches. But I refused to get rid of the 32 inch pants because I knew I could get back to it if I tried hard enough. One day when I bought some 34 inches, I saw a nice pair of pants I wanted. Unfortunately, they were only available in 33 inches. And they were snug, which made me think that not only was 34 my size, but that if I didn't get my act together, I'd be headed to 36, 38 and beyond.
I washed the 33 inchers last night and put them on this morning. THEY'RE LOOSE!
I'm not a 32 inch yet, but I'm getting there. Just because I can't squeeze into them today, doesn't mean I'll never be able to.
And at least I didn't donate all of my skinny clothes. I'm going to need them this summer!
