Why can't see?

I know exactly what you mean. I am afraid that if I'm in the misses someone will tell me to "get out, the woman's section is over there". Isn't it funny how the years of being overweight have "brainwashed us"

IT'S ALL IN THE ATTITUDE, MS MARY. WALK WITH AN AIR OF CONFIDENCE & OTHERS WILL BE LOOKIN' AT YOU THINKING ... "WOW, WHAT'S SHE GOT? I WANT SOME OF IT WHATEVER IT IS!" EVEN IF YOU DON'T "FEEL" IT, DO IT ANYWAY & PRETTY SOON YOUR MIND WILL CATCH UP WITH YOUR ACTIONS. JUST THINK WHAT YOUR 1st OPINION OF OTHERS ARE BASED ON ... IT'S THEIR ATTITUDE ... THE WAY THEY CARRY THEMSELVES ... THE WAY THEY PORTRAY THEMSELVES. THEY COULD BE THE POOREST, BEEN UNEMPLOYED FOREVER, DOWN ON THEIR LUCK, BUT IF THEY WALK IN A ROOM WITH AN AIR OF CONFIDENCE & A SMILE ON THEIR FACE ... NO ONE SEES THEIR CIR****TANCES ... THEY SEE THE REAL PERSON IN FRONT OF THEM. VALUE YOURSELF; YOU ARE WORTH IT! GOD BLESS YOU DAWN & NICK

DOLL UP WITH SOME MAKE UP & DO YOUR HAIR ... & ,THROW YOUR SHOULDERS BACK, LIFT UP YOUR CHIN & SASHEY ALL OVER TOWN CUZ YOU LOOK GOOOOOOOOOOOOOD, LADY!!!! PUT SOME SASSINESS IN THAT WALK ... LET THE WORLD KNOW YOU ARE FEELIN' GOOOOOOOOD! A GREAT BIG CONGRATS! &, I TO YOUR WONDERFUL SUCCESS! GOD BLESS YOU DAWN & NICK

Towana, I am so happy someone finally admitted this! Isn't it funny. I love to shop and I go to the store just to see what size I can fit into!!! I don't buy new things a lot, but the joy to slide into misses sizes is amazing. I am cutting up my gold Lane Bryant Card. Thank you Lane Bryant for the support over the years, but I hope to never come there again. Just wait until you can fit into designer things! They seem to only go to a 14. I finally got into an Ann Taylor outfit! I didn't buy it b/c I want it to be smaller, but what a rush. Currently, if I need a "sugar fix" I go and try on small clothes. OH, I got a size large coat for Christmas and it fits over me and my other clothes! I can't believe that it wasn't extra large. This is so great! God Bless Dr. Byrne! Kelly B.

WOW, WHAT A WONDERFUL WAY TO KEEP YOUR SPIRITS UP. I LOVE YOUR STATEMENT ABOUT WHEN YOU NEED A "SUGAR FIX" YOU JUST GO TRY ON SMALL CLOTHES INSTEAD! WAY TO GO, MS KELLY. THAT IS FANTASTIC THAT YOU ARE IN A LARGE. IT'S BEEN A LONG, LONG TIME THAT I'VE HAD TO HAVE SIZES WITH A NUMBER OF "Xs" IN THE SIZE LABEL!!!!!!!!!!! THEY ARE FAST DISAPPEARING INTO THE LOWER 20 SIZES. GOD BLESS & KEEP YOUR GREAT ATTITUDE! DAWN & NICK

Any advice? talk at you soon God Bless!

MS TOWANA COMES WHEN CLASSES ARE OUT ... COME ALONG AS WELL!!!! BLESSINGS FOR A SUCCESSFUL SURGERY DAWN & NICK

i know what you mean 100%. I have found the thrift stores to be so awesome for this reason. ( there are some great ones in N. Charleston). I have found things mainly old navy brand, levis', lee, talbots..Nice clothes. and paying 6.00 bucks for a nice looking pair of jeans that will get me through to the next size helps me sleep much better.. Keep up the good work towana
