Another thought about losing weight - what you or I consume at meals shouldn't be larger than your fist. That's just a "rule of thumb" so to speak but it seems to be working for me. I'm working on my waste line - tough area, but my waste cincher is easier to get into.
I just finshed reading the thread about why we dress. Interesting answers. For me ????? The why is hard to answer. The what it does for me is different. It makes me feel good. I've always known I have a feminine side of my persona. I've alway thought of myself as a "gender bender" which is an old term. Reading a story or watching a movie I have always identified with the female character(s). I really can't answer the "why."
I had been dressing (in pieces)since my teens. Full time including makeup, nail polish for the last nine years.
The dressing part challenges me to make choices. Choosing complementary tops, skirts, slacks or tights. What colors to wear? Should I wear a black bra and panties or white? Should I wear hose requiring garter straps or stay-up hose? Are my nails long enough to paint? What jewelry to wear is a whole new ball game; more fun.
My wife is very supportive and a good adviser on how I look. I understand why it takes so long for my wife to get ready, including changing tops or skirs/slacks. Funny thing is that she never complains about the time I take. We borrow from each other - she has a nice selection of silk blouses, nice. I have a selection of turtle necks - she likes.
If anyone looks at my pix in member's pix - I'm dressed in a formal gown. A wonderful off the shoulder gown. It was worn by her at our sons wedding. She was reluctant to buy it, at first. But with persuation she bought it. After the wedding, she encouraged me to try it on. I was afraid it might not fit me but I'm happy it did. It was a thrill to pose in it. I'm dressed femme from the skin out.....what fun.
Sounds like "true confessions."
