Scared to shop for
Does this make since? Does anyone else out their have this problem?
Unless you have to look spectacular for your job, like an attorney in court, try not to invest too much in "new" new clothes. Hit the thrift shops for "gently used" new clothes instead.
Clothes shopping can be a trip post-op. You look at the size and think to yourself "how am I going to get my fat ass in this?". Sure enough the smaller size fits well.
Never, and I mean NEVER, trust a fart!!
My problem is the opposite. I try to squeeze in the smallest size possible, so I will have a little shrinking room.
Have you tried Goodwill in Conyers and Covington? I think they both have plus size racks.

I have gone in the thrift stores, but the way the clothes are set up scares me too (in the goodwill they only go by color not size).
LaShell I am going to have to take you up on the offer for shopping. I have only been to the one in conyers.
The on in covington is newer.
My shopping experiece before was if it fits I am ok with it. So I need lots of help.
Just call me when you want to go. I am always in the mood to shop. If you ask for the plus sized section at Goodwill it is a little easier to narrow down the choices. When you get down to regular sizes, just go in with a little patience and prepare to spend an hour or so.

No good second hand shops in my part of S GA but we do have Prefferred Outlets (I-75, exit 5) with one store where nothing is over $10 and Liz Claiborne Outlet, nothing over $20. They were life savers for a winter wardrobe at around $120 including a coat.
