The Thong Dilemma

Now . . . I know I said my blog was going to be dedicated to the upcoming changes in my life, and in light of that, I bet your thinking the title of my post is absolutely ridiculous. But never fear, I'm going to tie it all together for you!

Part of my "life makeover" as I've decided to call it was to begin working out consistently again. I have to admit I have been absent from the workout world for quite some time now. What started as a week off to reward myself for finishing the Seattle half-marathon somehow turned into a 5 month couch potato session. But, I'm back on track.

But, as I walked into the gym yesterday after work, I realized that I was inviting an old obstacle back into my life as a result of my return to the in-shape world. The problem, in a word is UNDERWEAR. Don't worry, I'm not going to go all crazy on you and refuse to wear undergarments. It's just that I realized yesterday that my workout clothes and my comfy non-thong underwear do not play well together. What's a girl to do when she can get away with wearing comfy underwear under her work attire and not at the gym?

The way I see it, I'm left with two options . . . confidently display my underwear lines with each step I take on the Stairmaster or become a slave to thong underwear for the sake of fitness-fashion. I'm not sure how I feel about either of these options, and I'm not coordinated enough to work out in the droopy or saggy pants that would hide my problem.

So if you are a dedicated exerciser, feel free to share your advice. I'm not sure what road I'll take, but let's be honest, there are a lot of attractive men at the gym and I'm not sure my underwear lines are what I want them staring at!
