Groovy undies

[KnottedYet]

Due to circumstances that are entirely under my control (I just chose not to control them at this juncture) I now weigh 65 pounds more than I did in the last photos of me anyone posted to TE. (and I won't be posting any now, either!)

I'm fat.

Not just plump, chubby, heavy, or overweight. I'm honest-to-gawd FAT. "Obese" according to my doctor and every single BMI/height-weight/pudge-o-meter known to mankind. (Pencil Test? I win! Flab folds over waistband while standing and sucking in gut? I win! Belly sticks out farther than boobs? I win!)

My dearly beloved Patagonia "active brief" undies have never let me down. I'm still a size "Large." They stretch. They stretch real good. XL would probably fit a bit better, but I'm not going there. I'd like to continue to pretend that I'm still just a "Large". TE has them: http://www.teamestrogen.com/prodPA_32402_0.html But it looks like the bikinis are taking over the Patagonia underwear slot for TE.

A new fab-o undie has crested my horizon. Isis. "Oh, Mighty Isis!" (10 extra points if you are old enough to remember THAT on Saturday morning cartoons!) http://www.isisforwomen.com/everyday-brief.html I wear XL in Isis, and I have no complaints. They have stars all over them. They are cheaper than Patagonia. They stay put. They say "You Are A Goddess" on the inside of the front waistband. What's not to love?

The fabric is similar to Patagonia's. The waistband sits slightly lower, the legs are the same. Coverage of the back acreage is the same.

And they say "You Are A Goddess" where only you and your nearest and dearest can see.

The colors are ok. The moon and rhubarb are spiffy. The stars on the rhubarb are a darker red, not the gray it appears on the website.

And did I mention they say "You Are A Goddess", oh I did?

Check 'em out. I betcha they fit skinny chicks, too.
