Another clothes related victory!
My family is going to Gulf Shores this summer for the first time ever. I've been eyeing this colorful tankini for quite some time, but it was in the Juniors Department. I thought, "Maybe I could get a 15 and that would be equal to a 12/14 in women's." So I decided to just try it on yesterday afternoon and it went on! It doesn't fit properly yet, but it went on my body! I hope to lose another 25-30 pounds by the end of June, so I'm sure it will fit just fine by then! I know the top will, the bottom may be too big! I can't imaging my bottom being able to fit into a size 13 juniors at this point, so I'm not going to switch them for now.
Anyhow, I bought it and it's hanging in my closet on the hanger with my old, old black one-piece (size 18/20) that I've had for 5 years! When my daughter saw me in the new tankini, she said, "Oh Mommy, you look beautiful! I don't remember you ever having any other swimsuit than the plain black one."
I'm so glad I had that clothes victory last night because I was a little bummed to have only lost 1 pound over the past two weeks. But I'm having clothes victories so that counts too!
