My NSV today!
So my NSV today made me a little sad. But I got over it quickly. lol. I have NEVER been fitted for a bra. I've measured myself and then bought what I thought fit me. Well my bras are all 75 pounds ago and really don't do what they are supposed to do anymore. Since next weekend we are going bridesmaid dress shopping, I felt like I needed a new strapless bra that actually FITS! So I went to where I felt comfortable buying and talking about bras to the employees, Lane Bryant. I don't go there often(it's about an hours drive), but did have a credit card and always loved how personal their workers were especially the main weekend manager. Today I went, and my favorite manager girl was there and she comes over and asks if I need help. I give my dialog of losing 75 pounds and needing a good bra for a wedding. She takes me to get measured and......I no longer fit in Lane Bryant clothes! She was able to find some 36s, but they don't keep too many. All their drawers start at 38. I also tried on a pair of Spanx, in their smallest size 14/16....nothing, too big. I was kinda upset that I wouldn't be able to go see my chick at LB anymore. BUT! Now I get to go to Victoria Secret! What! What!

Woo! Congrats on not needing Lane Bryant anyone! My local store is horrible so I was super glad to be done with them.
As for bras, I went to a local speciality bra shop for a fitting and it was amazing. I love my new bras more than I've loved any bra ever.
