My first trip to Victoria's Secret
You look great. A better fitting bra would do wonders for you. What about a tshirt that's a little more fitted and womanly to balance out your hips and breasts. I think that with a new bra and a different style top, you'd look fabulous! My clothing stylist threw out every tshirt that had something on it. She said that women our age should be wearing solid color tshirts. I think we all need a makeover after shedding the weight. I'm using a new hair stylist and he's going to try some different things with color this month. Think uplifting. Sometimes it doesn't take much!

I definitely don't dress my age. With 2 teen age daughters at home I often grab one of their shirts. The other day I wore my daughter's fringed boots. I was so happy that they even zipped up. I wish I had taken a picture. I don't work at the moment and I really don't go anywhere that isn't casual. If I ever get a job I will have to be more conscious about what I wear but not working means no extra money so all my clothes come from Goodwill or other thrift stores. That is where I have bought my last few bras. I've really had to through together a new wardrobe on a shoe string.

Lee,
LOVE the post. As my daughter would say, LMAO. I definittely feel your frustration. I had reduction surgery 6 years ago and while I love my new size I wound up with instant side boobage that I hate! The surgeon said it was fat, not breast tissue so he didn't remove it and it ain't going nowhere. Yuck.
As my bra size has gone down to a 40C it almost seems to get worse because the sides of the smaller bras don't come up as high.
Glad to know I'm in such good company!!!

LOL -- Lee I have the extra twins also!! I'm still wearing my old bras. I bought a smaller one at Walmart because I didn't want to spend a lot of money right now, but I hate it. I've gotten used to wearing bras that aren't tight and now I can't stand anything that fits right or tight.
I keep saying I'm going to be measured and get one that fits correctly but I still haven't done it....

Oy, you have a DH Linda! He's probably just so grateful to have you be so much healthier in all aspects of your life.
At 60, I'm not gonna find me a man if my twins are hanging out around my waist. I too hate anything tight. I'm guilty of taking off all of my clothes as soon as I get home in the evening. Friends are just used to me being commando in my own home. :)

What a great post! I am giggling, I thought I was the only one with twins! LOL
I found that the dillards brand bras fit me better than VS. I went from a 42DDD/E to a 36 DD.
And when the cabaret brand is on sale I can get a bra for under $30. I was so glad I got fitted, because I never seem to do well on my own with bra shopping!
Glad the girls are back where they are supposed to be!
Enjoy!
