Cowboy or heels! I tried taking my clothes in - have done all I can and they're getting big again. I tried thrift store shopping - seems like the styles are from 1990. People have asked when I'm going to wear clothes to work that fit...so I went shopping today and invested some $$$ on..........TA DA!!!!!! regular sized clothes!!! I know I know everyone goes through this surprise when they realize they fit into regular sizes, but I really did not expect it. Poor body image I guess, but I see all the bumps and lumps and couldn't imagine not needing the extra room that plus sizes give. Now I can actually imagine getting into a size (dare I say it???) 8 by the time I reach my goal. I was so excited I went to the gym instead of going home to work in the yard -- besides it was almost 90 degrees and 100% humidity, so I was going to sweat no matter what I did! YOWZA and WOO-HOO!!
