Big time WOW!
Mar 18, 2010
So, I went shopping with my Mom last Friday. It's been crazy-hectic at work and I just needed a "me" day, you know? I also was in desperate need of some new clothes. The "new" pants i bought a few months ago shrunk - length-wise - and then also just got baggier as I lost more weight until finally, it was just pathetic looking. So, my Mom mentioned a few consignment shops where I could find cheap clothes until I get to my goal.Now, my at my heaviest I wore probably about an 18/20 and at least a 1X t-shirt. Since I've been losing weight, I wasn't sure what I even wore. I figured a 16, so decided that's what i'd grab. While I was looking, I found a couple pairs of 16's i liked, but mostly 8's or 10's (my ideal size is an 8) but then I found some 14's that were really nice. I found a pair of grey, black and brown pants. all the colors I needed. I figured, what the heck - for $5 a pair, i'll try 'em on.
Tried on the 16's first - not bad. A little baggy in the bum, but still not bad. then I tried on the 14's....holy cow! they fit perfectly! They're all stretch, so they gave a little, but still - they fit so well length-wise and width-wise. they hugged my curves pretty well (actually made my bum look not so bad!). I dropped the 16's and grabbed up the 14's.
I'm still not sure what size top I am - probably about an L (yay!) I'd love to get to an M one day, but the twins are kinda big...so I have to consider them. Although - I am incredibly happy that they are one place i haven't lost much weight. Woo Hoo!
Anyway - that totally made my day. I got the 3 pairs of pants and a top for under $20 there and then i got a nice, maroon leather jacket somewhere else for less than $20. All in all it was a very good day. Very theraputic and exactly what I needed.
