My jean callous is gone!

Ever get that rough patch on your index finger because zipping your jeans is too tough?

That's gone! I can take my jeans straight from the dryer and put them on with ease.

Goodbye rough patch - I don't miss you at all!

:)

This is so funny. I am glad for you'all.

I have seen dents in the side of heavy people's heads where their glasses pinch in. I wonder how many people have lost those 2 dents in the sides of thier heads?

We have to laugh at our selves.

I had a fear of lawn chairs. Never trusted them. I would only sit on ground or my chair. I would get a lot of questions of concerns when sitting on ground. If the person just wouldn't let it go, I would tell them I fear that I will break it. It would embarrass them but shut them up.

I never got the callous - I wore the elastic waist. It kept me in a size 16 pants long after I should've been into a 20. It was my own way of denying how fat I really was.

That is to funny. I never thought about that one when thinking of nsv's but sure enough when I read this post I checked and mine is gone also.

I am loving the fact that not only do I not have the callous, but I can usually pull my jeans on and off without zipping or unzipping them.

The only pair that I can pull off w/out unzipping is hanging on my closet door, behind a pair of size 12 jeans that I want to be able to wear. I have them on the same hangar, and the size 24 jeans are so big they overhang the closet door!! - - Hm. Perhaps I should move them to the kitchen!

I used to have one of those too, but I have to confess it was back in college when I tried to stuff my size 8 body into size 6

Calvins. Now I'd be happy to be a size 12, which I used to consider big as a house -

I pull all my jeans on & off without zipping too. Hurrah for the trend that came in a couple years ago of stretchy jeans that aren't elastic.
