I hit that dreaded three-week stall last Friday. I keep telling myself "patience, protein, hydration."

Today, I took the day off work in preparation to head out of town, and had to go pick up a clothing order that had arrived at Lane Bryant. It was a mix of things for my sister and me. While there, I scoured the clearance racks for a pair of shorts to wear in Hawaii next month, as my current collection are all either too large or too small. No dice, they had about four pair of hideous burmuda shorts. Had they been CUTE ones, I would have snapped 'em up!

I walked down the sidewalk to Old Navy, heavy-hearted because I figured I wouldn't be able to wear any of their shorts.

To my delight, I found some baggy-ish looking rolled cuffed light-weight shorts that appeared to be perfect....in two different colors, to boot! But, darn it! They only had the XXL in the light khaki. So, I picked them up, along with an XL cami and a XXL sequined tank. Didn't even feel like trying anything on....just grab and go.

I got home and thought, "let's see how this goes".....

The XL cami fit loosely. Well, darn, I wanted a snug fit.

The XXL tank? I am swimming in it. I thought, "Wow! I might be able to actually wear an XL!"

Then I pulled on the shorts and said, "Holy $#*%!!!" out loud!

Guess who has to go back and exchange EVERYTHING for a smaller size?!?!

Screw you, three-week stall....my ass is STILL shrinking, in SPITE of you!
