NSV - shopping in a regular shop

Oct 26, 2011

Before my surgery, I was so discouraged as I looked for exercise clothes to wear. There was nothing comfortable I could find in the stores. As i started losing weight, I was excited to find really nice exercise clothes online. I was also happy that I had gone from a 6X to a 4X (shirt) and 3X (pants).

A few days ago my personal trainor told me I had to get new exercise clothes as the ones I have are getting too baggy.... but baggy is good... right? She told me I had to do it now and there was no excuse for waiting. Well, I told her it would take a few weeks as I would have to order something online since I was sure I would not be able to find anything around.

To my surprise, that day, after my session I just popped my head in to Footlocker. They had a few cute t-shirts that caught my eye and I just figured I would have a look to see how much further I had to go before I could squeeze into them.

I was shocked.... I found that they fit... XXL.... holy crap!!!!!  How did that happen????

I was so proud of myself. Wore my t-shirt proudly when i went to exercise yesterday..... BUT.... I was not expecting what my trainor had to tell me. She looked at me and asked why I got such a big shirt???  HUH?????  what did she mean??? I was wearing an XXL as opposed to 4X. It was not big at all... at least not to me.... but noooooooo.... she told me it was too big and she expected me to buy a smaller one!!!!! Then when I went home, I was told the same by my family???? 

I still can't believe I was able to buy something in a regular store. Of course I went for the biggest size there. Never would I have even imagined to get the XL.....

Did I mention... I LOVE MY DS!!!!!!
