New clothes make a new you!

Feb 08, 2009

Okay so finally I went out and bought some new clothes.  I even packed up all the clothes that do not fit me now.  Now all I got to do is figure out if there is anyone who would want them.  I would love to give them to those that would benefit from them before I gave them to the Goodwill.  It was so nice to try those clothes on that weren't a size larger than what I was wearing before.  I must say though I do realize now that my mind has not caught up to my body.  Evertime I grabbed any clothes to try on the first thing that would go through my mind was..."What am I thinking?  This shirt/pants will never fit.  I hope I don't rip it."  Every time I amazed myself and sure enough they did fit.  I did this all day even though I knew the answer.  You always hear about how you view yourself differently than what you really are.  To me it just seems like one of those things that you can't fully understand unless it happens to you.  With my store hopping yesterday I found out that I wear a size 20 pants and 1X or 16/18 shirt.  I'm so proud of myself.
