I don't know how someone screwed up the inches measurement in your pants, but I really really wish that womens clothing was sized that way. Yes, women would have to look at how many inches their waist was every time they wanted to buy a pair, but you could TELL someone what SIZE you are, and they could buy you a pair of pants in that size and have some reasonable expectation that they would fit!

I have 2 pairs of 16's that I bought of the SAME BRAND of jeans, just a different cut. One fit, and the other I found out when I got home it was too small. Fortunately, I have resized myself to fit in them, and now thing that MAYBE if I went to the store I might find a pair of 14's that fit, but even if that's true, there are still 18's and 20's that "fit" and aren't to big. *SOB*

Bras are no better.

because there is some rule that if you are fat you must wear loud flower prints, neon colors, shirts with embroidered teddy bears holding balloons and wearing sailor hats, and moomoos in the ugliest 70's rayon designs ever made. the normals figure if they dress us bad we will get sick of being fat and lose the weight.

*Emphatically nodding in agreement*

And at least rayon is humane, what is that scratchy synthetic that they make into summer clothes? You know, the pieces with exposed elastic in the waist...

Maybe it is to make us easier to spot? Many a time I've been told "oh sorry didn't see you there".

I'm sorry, a 6' 4" tall man with 100 pounds of excess body fat is SO hard to spot, I'll just go paint myself neon green to make life easier for you. Perhaps some kind of audible warning "AWOOOGA FAT BASTARD APPROACHING... AWOOOGA NORMS BEWARE".

I'm blind (legally) and I make the effort to spot even the smaller humans whenever possible. Maybe I'll just tread on the skinny bastards and when they complain, suggest they go wear a large flower print moomoo.

The worm (or in my case, elephant seal) has turned!! Muahahahahahaaaaar!!

I would like to take this opportunity to mention in reference to Wal-Mart, which was referenced earlier in this thread:

Boycott Walmart!

For so, so, so many reasons. Walmart sucks.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
