Nicolanz 1,484 Posted December 3, 2013 Yesterday I went to pick out some scrubs for school. I picked up an XL shirt and pants. I asked the clerk if I could try them on and she laughs at me saying no way will those fit me. She grabs mediums and hands them to me. I give her the look of death wanting to punch her right in the face! I take them, fearing the humiliation I've dealt with my entire life of something not fitting. They fit! I now want to make out with her right then and there! I obviously still see myself as obese and it stinks that I don't see myself the way others do! Hopefully one day.... 5 notmeanymore, Beach Lover, BethinPA and 2 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scarlet333 386 Posted December 3, 2013 Congratulations on the size medium. I think this happens to a lot of us. I think I'm a size 10 pants and medium top but every time I shop I think these can't possible fit me they are so tiny but to might delight they ususally do. 1 Nicolanz reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

notmeanymore 629 Posted December 3, 2013 Im the same way, I still will choose sizes that are too big because there is no way I fit into size 8 pants or a medium (sometimes a small) top. Its unreal. Its ok though because its like a new NSV every time I actually do fit into the tiny clothes 1 Nicolanz reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nicolanz 1,484 Posted December 3, 2013 Oooh and I beat my personal best today by doing a 12 minute mile and I'm .6% away from having an acceptable body fat percentage! Today is a good day! 4 gamergirl, notmeanymore, cubbies76 and 1 other reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

piercedqt78 658 Posted December 3, 2013 I'm still amazed when clothing that is hanging in my own closet fits me, and my family thinks it's funny that I do a happy dance when I can put on pants without laying on the bed, and doing the booty scoot to get into my jeans. I hold up my new sizes and still say "never gonna happen" and they do fit, just like the last time I wore them. LOL It's a great problem to have though.
