Seven Heavens – 175 and some much needed underwear…

Hey All!!

Weighed in Tuesday at 175.  Been noticing that my loss has slowed down a bit even tho I have added more running and some weights…….Dang last 20 lbs are gonna kill me!

And that is not the half of it! My goal is 153 which puts me in the “healthy, normal” category on the BMI chart.  But I think that 20 or so more pounds would put me at a size 10-12 and I kinda wanted to be a size 8…..which would be around 140.  I don’t know it that is do-able or even maintainable; I’ve seen many get there but not stay there.   So , we will see what we look like at 160 and go from there…..

Well, I did something tonite that I haven’t done in quite awhile – go underwear shopping!  For some cute stuff, not the industrial size bras that I have since thrown away!  Since January of this year, my main underwear staple has been a bodyshaper/girdle called a  Diet-trim.

It is a one piece with the bra built in and is comfortable and offers the best support that money can buy.  You can get them at Sears for around 30 bucks – believe me they are worth it! The Diet-trim also lets you drop 4-5 sizes and will still conform to and hold you in – I am just now shopping for some new ones in a smaller size.  I have about four of them.  They are great to run in too – no flopping boobies!

See, Ms. Tracy has no problems with support underwear, and I wish that a lot of other folks would take up the cause.  I for one am so tired of bellies, asses and love handles hanging out of ill fitting tops and low rise jeans.   And this is on Grown Folks that Should Know Better!!  I like tight dresses and jeans and tops that hug the curves, but you can’t just throw that stuff on!  Like a well built house, you have to have a strong foundation underneath…..oooh I like that one….

So anyhoo,  the girdle has been ok for the last few months, but now that I have some male company, well….lets just say that an extra tight lycra one piece isn’t the most …..accessible thing one could wear.   And I have been curious as to how the new bod really looks after almost 85 pounds gone.   So, off I went  to my favorite lingerie outlet (Walmart) to  look for some sessy stuff!

I am still at the point in my transition where I have to try everything on.  My bottom half is a true size 12, but the top half of me is built like a linebacker so depending on who makes it I can be anywhere from a 12 to a 16.  But, this is underwear and nighties so I go a little smaller with my choices.  I am looking for support and if it is a little tight it is ok.

The first thing I found was a cute black camisole – nice, stretchy and shiny black! I remember the girls and how they refuse to go away (I’m still a 44 D) and get a 2x.  Then I found some matching “control”  high cut panties – got them in a medium.  Headed over to the bras and found a cute gray jersey padded bra and some ‘boy-cut’ panties  in regular size large – not just my size large! Yes!  Found a sessy black bra to go with my corset (yes, I wear corsets too!  They can take you down a good size or two) and a to die for low cut pajama set! I’m done, time to check out!

I get home, adjust the wig, put on some lip gloss and get to trying on my new stuff! “Tracy”, you ask “really now, does it take all that to try on some underwear?”.  And I say yes it do, take the time ladies, get gussied up and dare to be sexy.  Hell, I’ve been running for the past three months now, I better think I’m all that!  ‘Sides, I wanna get the total picture of what someone else is gonna see – and make the necessary adjustments!

First the camisole and the panties!   Yes!  The cami fits like a dream and the medium panties give me curves where they should be!  Damn, I’m fine!  I should have got the 1x tho, but this looks good!

Ok next the bras and boy panties.   Hmmmm…..a little boobie adjusting and the bras look great but I am not feeling the boy panties….too much hanging out of the sides and you cannot hike them up.  I think you have to have a boy body to look good in these.  Tried the black bra with my corset and some thigh highs – wooooo!  Is that me?  My poor boyfriend is gonna have a stroke….

Allright on to the pj’s!  Really cute, clingy material….a little adjusting, gotta tie up the straps, maybe put the control panties under to tame the belly bulge and…..Voila!  They look fantastic!  And these are a size  12-14!!   I will never eat chocolate again….tonite anyways…

So, I end this entry on cloud nine again….got some cute stuff that looked cute on me! This is the first time in years that I could buy off of the rack and have everyting  fit (‘cept the boy panties, they suck) and I am over the moon.  About underwear.  What lies ahead…can’t wait!

You Can Do It!!
