Don't want that muffin top
Blog: Sister Skinny
Are you familiar with the term "muffin top?"
Did you know, for example, that there are people in the world who take pictures of other people who exhibit this condition and then put them up on their Flickr page? Let's all say it together now: YIKES!
So, a little while ago I posted on possibly being an 8; I tried on a pair of Gap jeans in said size that were, errr, rather tight. And while I do not regret purchasing them, they will be shelved temporarily. Because I've noticed what fits in the morning does not always fit in the afternoon...or even mid-morning. And come to think of it, those saggy bottomed 10's shrunk up quite nicely in the wash. Sure it only lasted 2 days of wear for them to stretched out again. I do laundry enough that throwing them in with a random load more often shouldn't be a problem.
One last thing about the muffin top; after going through aforementioned Flickr slideshow, I've noticed it has everything to do with the cut of jeans, not the thinness of waistline or torso. I don't really feel self-conscious about my middle, but I would like to stay far far away from this:

and so people, I remain a 10. Don't worry, I won't be here long. :)
