Hi everybody and hope that you are all having a fantastic long weekend!

So today I went to buy myself workout gloves (the ones with the cut off fingers) for doing weights. I went to Sports Expert since I get a 10% discount because I'm a member of Mansfield gym. Anyway...I passed by the ladies department and decided to take a peek...

My trainer keeps telling me he wants to "see my shape" and wants me to wear smaller pants but I have been very stubborn so far.

Decided to try on some of those tight...unflattering work out pants just to prove him wrong...

Well...you have to remember that a short 8 months ago I was wearing a 5X...so I tried on a few and what do you know...a freakin' size XL was on me!!! And it fit!!! It's not the prettiest thing but that's the first thing I've bought in a "normal" size store and it was discounted at 50% also!!

Now to actually get the courage to wear it to the gym is another story...lol

Just wanted to share with all of you and also tell you that even if the scale does not move once in a while...your body is still changing!!

Hugs,
Ada

way to go Ada, that's fantastic. I love the feeling of being able to shop in more stores.
And I say wear them to the gym and be proud.
Keep up the great work.
