That feeling when everything you try on is goin home...

Up until the other day, my shopping for clothes was at an all time low.  Even after losing 40+ pounds it was so difficult to go into a store and shop.  I had total 'fear of not fitting' issues and would literally be overwhelmed.  Inevitably, I would leave with a new black shirt and call it a day. Well, you can only have so many black shirts so on Sunday, I decided to hit Loft.  I am a huge fan of Ann Taylor and Loft....they sell pants that will actually fit me 'length wise' and I don't have to hem them.  At 5'3"ish and too heavy in the tummy and seat, pants are tough to find that fit.

I walked in the store and a really nice girl asked what I was looking for and I just let her size me up and gather clothes...clothes I would ordinarily not even think about.  She left me in the dressing room and the magic began, everything fit!  There were a few things I didn't like but EVERYTHING fit and if you've been shopping, overweight, you know what I mean.  It was so exciting...smaller sizes, different looks.....such an amazing day.  I've now crossed the 'fear of not fitting' border and will be more adventurous on my next shopping spree.  Thanks to the folks at Loft, couldn't have been nicer and more help.  Still left with a black shirt......some habits are hard to break.
