Default THEY FIT!!! *faints*

So I have a job interview today and my mom was like "Well, how about we go get you some clothes for your interview since everything is sooo baggy on you"....I looked very unprofessional in my pants that I had to keep up with safety pins...

But I was like "nooo...I have some size 20 pants in my dresser that I'm waiting to fit into"...so she told me to go try them on and I was really leary and nervous because I didn't want to upset myself. They slid on like a glove and buttoned perfectly!! I look soo professional and healthy!

I know it's hard to believe that someone that weighs 276 lbs looks healthy, but I do! Now I have that nice glow in my face to go to my interview with. I'm SOOOOO happy. Although the shirt I'm wearing is a little revealing cause it's baggy, but I can't please everyone! lol

This just TOTALLY made my day.

That is so great! It's not hard to believe that you can look healthy, you don't have to be 120lbs to be "healthy". Keep up the good work, and buy some more clothes already!

Your mom offered to buy you new clothes and you said no? Silly girl!!!!

Actually, I'd hire you just because of that! Shows integrity.

Congrats on the jeans!!!!!!

Awwww...thanks for saying that! I've really been working on my attitude lately, not that I have a bad one, but there are times when I could be a little more positive. I'm having a VERY positive day.

I just would hate to go to the store and try something on and have it not fit...I think that would kill me, whereas I know how I'm progressing with the clothes in my drawer, you know what I mean?

That is so GREAT!!!!!! Good Luck on your Interview!!!!!! You will knock them out with that glow

I have a pair of pants that have been sitting in my closet. I am afraid to take them out because I want to wait until I get down to 200 pounds before I make the attempt. Hehehe so they will remain in there until I turn on the light and I reach for them .... hahahaha...

oh, I got the job...that was easy! lol. It's just a grocery store, but the position of manager may be coming available to me, sooo...*Crosses fingers* Not that I want to be in retail for the rest of my life, but hey...it's better than a desk job. I'd rather be moving around all day than sitting at a desk..no matter HOW much I make!
