OH. MY. GOD. I am so f*ing fat right now that I just want to curl in a ball and hide. (Yes, I know this will not solve my fat problem and only serve to worsen it.) I am on my way to the funeral today and I don't know why it didn't cross my mind earlier this week to maybe try on some clothes to see if they would fit. I was just so sure that my black dress would work. Wrong. The dress won't even go over my boobs. Then I moved on to a skirt, nope - not zipping that unless my waist becomes the area right under my boobs. So, my trusty grey pants have to work...right? Hell no. OMG, what the hell am I going to wear?
Here's the thing - while I've lost a good chunk of the baby weight, I haven't lost the last 10-15 pounds. The other issue is that I have, unfortunately, weighed this horribly fat weight before, but my body shape is totally different since the birth of the baby. So while my fat clothes should fit, they don't because the fat is hanging out in totally different places than before. UGH!!
I should get a fatty award because I just figured out how to fit into my grey pants and only look a little like a stuffed sausage. I have the Spanx on under the pants, which was a feat, and yet they still won't button...so on top of that I have the Bella Band from my first trimester of pregnancy. It's not pretty, but it'll do. I was only one step away from breaking out the full on maternity dress or pants, but all the people I will see today would have recognized that I was still in maternity and I could never do that. I'd be so ashamed.
This is why I wear sweatpants every day. So much easier.

Oh my gosh! I miss you... You crack me up. Hahaha...
You, my friend, are not the only 2x4 on the block. I hear your pain and I second it. I'm in sweatpants and a t-shirt (which clings to the squishy post baby belly) as I type.
you looked beautiful!! AND not fat!
You will have to read my blog when I finally write it..I had the SAME issues this week!!!!
Thanks for coming today! I am so glad you got to meet a blog buddy in person too!
I actually had the same exact problem the last time I went to a family funeral. Unfortunately it was not due to me having a baby and instead 100% due to the fact that I have yet to make the connection between getting my fat ass off the sofa and into a gym (or who am i kidding...a workout video comes before braving the gym!).
I'm sorry to hear of the loss of your friend.
