First non-plus size purchase
I love the Canadians too, I have a bunch of friends from Canada that I give **** to all the time. One of my all time favorite tshirts right here:
I love Birch Run and Frankenmuth! I usually hit up Birch Run at least once a year for school shopping. I'm near Ann Arbor. If you ever get out this way send me a PM, we'll do lunch or something!
I was at Costco shopping with my kids and husband. There was a display with these cable knit three quarter length cardigan sweaters. I said, "Oh those are cute. Too bad they won't have my size." My teenager went over and looked and said, "Yes they do mom" and handed me a regular Large. I tried it on and my husband said, "Nope, that's too big...try the Medium." I was actually flabbergasted and tried to insist that I would NEVER fit in a Medium. They all rebelled and insisted I try on the Medium. Sure enough it fit great! Now I still love that sweater though it has gotten a bit big. That is a great memory! Thank you for reminding me.
Congratulations on your progress! Have a really good day.

I made my 1st regular size purchase 1 month ago at Costco. I found some low priced nylon jogging pants. Not knowing what size I was wearing, I figured I would get a large as I would eventually be wearing that size. I got them home only to find they fit me perfectly! Within 2 weeks they were too big so I went back and purchased a pair in medium. They fit!

My first non plus sized items were purchased at a Post Exchange. Michael Kors pants and blouse, size 14! I was hesitant to try them on but my husband convinced me to try them and that moment when the pants slid right on!
