NSV ... Went shopping



Recommended Posts

I dreaded this day. I knew it would come. I travel 6-8 times a year for work and was hoping to keep working at home and save my pennies until I absolutely had to buy clothes.

Well I was surprised with a travel request from boss and off to Texas am headed on the 18th

I've lost 42 pounds so far.

Many of my pants still fit with a belt and some without. I just needed tops.

I shopped downstairs in the store for the first time in at least 12 years maybe more. No more woman's section.

I started with extra large tops and found a couple float extra large dresses.

Wow

Wow

Wow

They were too big!

I've been wearing size 16 from 2002-2013 and hen was in an 18

I bought large tops

I bought a size 14 DKNY dress that fits me snugly and perfect. Thank goodness Spanx still fit

I bought one dress in extra large but am returning it. I tried it on 4 more times and it's supposed to be loose and flowy. It's just a pinch too lose going for a large

I cried in the dressing room.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
