Another NSV
This will probably be best understood by the ladies... you know at Kohl's, the plus size clothes are kind of in the back, in a corner? Everything is squished together. It looks junky, and the clothes are not that nice.
Now, if you walk right down that big middle aisle? The one that displays the Jennifer Lopez sweaters? The Laura Conrad blouses? They are hanging nicely, in sizes S, M, L, and sometimes XL? Lots of room. Top prices. Beautiful, normal sized clothes.
I went down that aisle today. I bought a Laura Conrad blouse in a Large. Right off that rack. And it fit.
It fit me. I was in tears.
I know exactly what you mean. I can't wait for that day, and will easily be just as emotional. Congratulations!
It is the best feeling. Shopping is so much more fun now. You no longer have to buy something because it fits and looks OK. You can now buy it because it looks awesome and you love it! Although it can get expensive because it is hard to say no to all the clothes.

At my Kohl's the activewear clothes is right in front of the plus section which as you mentioned is tucked in the corner, always gives me pause...
YAY for a new sweater in a L!
