I have a rant for you.
I've never liked shopping for pants, because I always picked the biggest size and it was always too small in the hips and thighs and too big in the waist or some terrible stuff like that.
Today, I put on my pair of size 18 jeans and walked to the store and they literally slid off of my bottom, exposing my polka dot skivvies to everyone in the world. Thank God I chose cute ones today. ANYWAY.
Boyfriend says "Listen, Autumn. This is f'ing ridiculous. We're buying you clothes" So I got a little bit excited.
I have not purchased a single item of clothing for myself in 2 years despite a fifty pound weight loss.
Anywho, I walk into the store and I have NO IDEA what I like and everything is ugly or small so I leave. Within 5 minutes.
SO I decide to go online. Old Navy, woo! Go straight to plus size, go to the size chart and SUDDENLY I'm not even plus size anymore.
I'm no longer what I always called 'person size' (this started when I was six and I don't know how it started) meaning plus size. lol.
So now I have no idea why to even buy, my tastes are like...50's housewife meets awkward t-shirt and jeans. I don't know what's flattering on my body type because I don't even know what body type I am anymore >:I
So my mom is taking me to our local thrift store tomorrow (We don't have a target or walmart or any non-thrift stores on Vashon Island) so I can try things on....
I will probably cry at least nine times.
How have you dealt with this? I figure I'm just going to buy dresses because they won't fall off if I lose another 30 pounds in two months. What have you purchased half way through your weightloss journey?
WHERE did you purchase it?
What do you wear? A-line shirts make me look pregnant. I have no boobs at all
And finally, why is shopping more difficult than the actual weight loss?!??! D:<
I'm a GIRL. Shopping is supposed to be FUN. D:<
