I would like to be able to wear a pair of jeans without my belly poking out above and below the belt! I also see so many cute blouses I'd love to wear, but can't because they won't look good on me at my size. Also a lot of colors--i love colorful clothing but stopped wearing them when I gained weight.

But if I could shop at Forever 21 I'd be one happy gal.

The main sections of department stores. LL Bean, Tractor Supply Company, and most outdoors outfitters (don't judge me ). I can already wear a few things they sell, but not stuff I'll look good in or want to wear.

They do have some super-cute clothes.

I CAN wear their clothes--I have one or two F21 dresses--but I feel so crappy at this weight that I don't think I look good regardless of whether I fit the clothes or not.

Well, I work at Old Navy and absolutely love the clothes, but the problem is once I gained all this weight, a lot of the cute stuff doesn't look right on me, I want to be able to wear all the cute clothes I sell.

Oh, I posted below but had to go so I did not get to expand upon it but recently I went to Victoria's Secret for a huge sale with my friends (one of which who thinks she can fit into the stuff but cannot) and it was awful. I felt so unsexy because I can only fit into their underwear. They had so many cute clothes, bras, and underwear but I was so embarrassed because I feel like I do not belong. So...I cannot wait to go to Vickys and purchase sexy underwear/bra sets and clothes!! I think I will make this a reward actually.

There are a lot of really beautiful boutiques and vintage shops in my area... I would LOVE to be able to go in there and feel like I belong. You know, the sales clerks suggesting things that would look good on me, rather than them just sort of avoiding me as I look for the biggest sizes at the back of the racks.

I've always been too shy to go in there and try to find something. I have before (at a different store) and couldn't find anything that fit. Very disheartening. And I have the same problem about fitting into clothes but feeling I look awful in them because of my weight!

Victoria's secret. I can't wait to wear sexier undies without my @ss swallowing them up.

Also RentTheRunway.com Most of the coture dresses you can rent from the site only go up to size 12 (a handful go up to 14). I'm working hard trying to fit into a particular dress on their site for a wedding in 7 weeks. I would love to be able to rent from them on a semi-regular basis..weddings, fancy dates, parties etc. Ahhh pretty dresses

This! I've already started picking things out and adding them to wish lists on various sites. I'm not dating anyone (haven't dated lol), but that doesn't mean I can't wear sexy undies for myself.

I'm considered petite, and I would simply love to be able to buy clothing in that section of any store.

America! Clothing stores in my country just don't have the sorts of styles I want. Hence why Disney Land is part of my reward
