OK I did it. I went shopping..

hi Felicia. i was shopping over the weekend, and was wondering if you were too . was waiting for you to post about it! i am glad to hear the trip went off well . it is great that you can have a tight squeeze into a 18/20. we are the same weight, but you are taller than me so slimmer. i barely make it into a size 26 non-stretch small mercies though, previously i could not fit into any store bought clothing. i wear a swimsuit with a broadshorts or a sarong. handy to hide the flab you sound very excited about the shopping. bet you will be going back to the stores soon!

*HUGS* No worries you will be in that 26 non stretch in no time. I was to scared to try on anything that didn't stretch lmaoo wasn't sure I could handle it mentally lolol. Thanks so much!!! *huggles* Felicia =0)

Yay for the dramatic size drop! I soooo thought of you this weekend, I did some shopping of my own, it was finally time to replace all my "foundations"....as they were sagging and not supporting a darn thing. It's amazing what a difference a proper fitting bra makes...my girls have reaapeared right back where they belong!

LMAOOO I need to do the "foundation" shopping also but I still have a few pieces that are hanging in there so I am putting it off till next month lolol. The poor ole girls sure are a shrinking *sigh*. Thanks so much!! *huggles* Felicia =0)

GREAT JOB Felicia!!! Way to go! You may find that you can at least tolerate shopping a bit more as you go down the scale. I never enjoyed shopping either, even when I was thinner. But you know what, I am beginning to like it a bit more now that I can pick stuff off of the rack in the "regular" size of Large (in tops anyway....). My new obsession is camisoles (sp?). I have had great fun buying them off of the clearance racks to wear as another layer in this cold, cold weather. They just make me feel "pretty" in a way a tank top does not. As the weather warms up, I can drop some of the top layers, but still have a pretty camisole on underneath. I understand the swimming thing too......for years now, I was just too embarrassed to be seen in a swimming suit, but have worn one twice in the past two months when we had weekend get-aways at hotels with pools. It feels good not to have to try to come up with an excuse to my kids as to why I won't go to the pool with them. Keep up the GREAT work! Dawn

Thanks so much!! Yup I hear ya about clearance racks lol thats where I like to shop. I HATE spending money on clothes. I saw some really nice camisoles also but hope to be down a few more sizes by summer then I will pick some up ( of course they wont be on sale anymore lol isn't that always the way). Congrats on the swimming!! YOU GO GIRL!! *huggles* Felicia =0)
