I just love the fact that I can shop with my new body and go right to my size off the rack.
When I was rounder I would have to find 3 sizes of the same thing to see what would fit best to hide the bumps and bulges. Things are made so differently it's a pot shot in the clothing world.
It can be pretty discouraging trying on clothes when you can only take in 4 or 5 items into the fitting room at once. That's only one fit. I would never ask the attendant to get me something because I was embarrassed to say "size 20 please." Don't even get me started on shopping for bras. Pure AGONY!
Forget thrift stores. Apparently only small people get rid of cool clothes. Don't get me wrong I could find some bigger clothes but very few and not exactly stylish. I refused to wear elastic band jeans!!
