Out with the old....

Pretty soon I will have to go shopping for clothes. I look forward to it and dread it at the same time. Every girl likes to buy new things, but when you're a big girl it kind of sucks. I hate trying to find my size, then trying to find something decent in my size....*sigh*......it gets disheartening at times. I know I can't wear the cute clothes in a size 8 just yet, but buying the larger sizes just reminds me how far I have to go. And I know it is probably just my mind being cruel, but I feel like nothing looks good on me. I have never been a fan of shopping simply because I am what they call "plus size". You big girls know what I'm talking about....searching for "comfort fit" or elastic, breaking a sweat in the changing room (why do they make them so damned confined?), the ever popular "sucking it in" technique, and never being truly satisfied. Shopping is no fun when you're fat. But, it must be done. And I guess the thrill of getting into a smaller size from time to time is worth it. I just hope they have the a/c going full blast in those changing rooms. Big girl doesn't want to be all sweaty. Ugh.
