Me too Dee!

I will say this about "normal" sized clothes....they are more complicated. Those damn side zippers on dresses, and those snap thingees that hold your bra straps in place with a sleeveless dress....and the dry cleaning............I could go on...........

I do love the options though, and when I put my Summer clothes away Sunday I realized I have way too much!!! Now, Winter, not so much....so I guess some shopping is in order!

I didn't. I was so embarrassed that I normally wore a lot of black and shapeless clothing. My self-esteem has really gotten a boost. Even at 189 I feel THIN!

We are pretty much at the exact same spot, and I agree! My hubby wouldn't let me shop for myself because all I bought was black and shapeless. Now, lot's of color and fun! It's such a great feeing!!

I LOVE cute clothes... I tried to wear cute clothes when I was bigger but cute was hard to find in "tarp" size... haha... just kidding... but my plus size body didn't have the plus size boobs that were built into most larger sized clothes... and I'm a shorty too... Oh lawd shopping use to be a terrible, awful, whiney, eat-to-much-chocolate to heal kinda chore and now its my absolute favorite hobby :)
Enjoy!
