Can't imagine
Posted 07-22-2008 at 08:20 PM by Maja
I've been thinking about clothes lately and weight in general. I have been overweight all my life, even as a child, teen and adult. I don't remember being under a size 16 EVER. I'm sure when I was a kid i was smaller but I don't remember it.
I don't remember ever being able to shop in places other then plus size stores.
I can't even imagine what it would be like to walk into ANY store and pick out something that I LIKE and buy it. Instead of going to the only store that carries my size, picking out something because it fits and getting it because I have nothing to wear.
So far my goal is to be a size 16, since anything under that is just a dream for me. I don't even know what a "goal" size would be for me. A 14? 12? hmmm I duno.. how could I ever get my big rear end into a 12?? Impossible.. or is it?
I know that at 189 lbs (lowest weight that I got to last time I LC) I was a size 16 and could wear size L shirts. That was amazing to me. For the first time I bought something at the "normal" size side of Fashion bug
. That didn't last long though 
. I can't wait to get there again. About 50 more lbs to lose and I should fit into 16s again. I can't wait!!
For today... I only need to lose 1 lb.. then another... and then another.. another one after that. That's my goal.. 1 lb .

You can do it!!! Just close your eyes and imagine walking into a REGULAR SIZED clothing store and finding something PERFECT and it fitting PERFECTLY!!!
I can't wait to do that as well. It's been about 8 years since I was in a size 12/14 (the lowest that I GOT when I was losing weight and being serious about it). I then stopped and the foolishness of gaining and gaining and gaining and not caring took over. So here I am, sitting at 280 pounds! I can't wait to buy what looks good and is "in" an not just "what fits!" You are right when you say you just have to lose one pound and then another! |
