How in the world do these stars have babies and 6 weeks later pop back up looking like nothing ever happened? I've been working my stretch-marked tail off for the past 3.5 months and you can definitely still tell that "something" happened. Kaelyn happened.
While I am back down below my "goal weight", I am still a few pounds shy of my "goal shape". It's this gross little spare tire around my mid-section that won't go away! Obnoxious! My legs are back, my hips are even back (let's not talk about the boobs, those will never be the same...but I'm going to enjoy them while they are, erm, "naturally enhanced"), but my midsection does this (not-so) funny jut out right above where I wear my pants. Helloooo muffintop. Goodbye self-esteem.
So when my Groupon email came through a couple months ago tempting me at 75% off these funny-looking shorts that are all-the-rage in the UK, I thought "why not?" They boast that these pants will help you lose 2 jean sizes in two weeks. Probably not going to happen, but they have a 2 week challenge: lose inches off your waist, hips and thighs in just two weeks. Wear them to bed, wear them around the house, and workout in them.
Fast forward two months and my Hotpants are finally here. So of course I rip them out of the package and put them on-every little bit counts, right? I feel like I should be giving directions to dolphins at Sea World. I also feel like those dolphins might hear the swish when I walk all the way from Orlando. Hehe.
So in two weeks I will let you know how these work out. If nothing else I can wear them as shapers-I already like how my waist looks in these things...time will tell!
