So, I needed to get some tee shirts, for training and general/casual wear as mine are now like tents.

I ordered them on line and was brave enough to order a size 16 (UK). When I took them out of the wrappers, I looked at them and thought 'Hmmm... too small for me!' I showed them to my hubby and he said 'They might have to go back love, they're a look small!' Feeling a tad dejected I tried them on, I had nothing to lose, and I was in the comfort of my own home... and here is the good bit!

THEY FIT ME! Yay!!!

Ok, ok, they fit where they touch, but I can certainly wear them in public... What a great moment of victory! Put a smile on my lil face after a few stressful weeks!!

AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yay Coops!! Little things like this make everything worthwhile

YAYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!

:cheer2:

Yay Horray COOPS!!

I did that the other day with a pair of jeans. Thought no way in hell are those going on my fat butt!

Put them on and they were almost too big!!

That is a great NSV!!

Keep rocking that sleeve!!

Woo-hoo!!!!!

Hooray!!!!

I know how you feel Coops!! I love those NSA's

Whooottt!!!! You go girlie!!! You work so hard, of COURSE they fit!!

Thanks for the comments... no one else really 'gets' it!!

Sweet!!! I love that feeling!!!

Such a great feeling!!! Funny that even your hubby thought they would be too small. What a great NSV!!!

YAY!!!!!!!

Hiya Sue,

It really is a great feeling that isn’t it ? It just shows how it takes our brains a while to catch actually register that we can possibly fit into something that isn’t our usual huge size. We see that smaller number on a thing and automatically think it isn’t for us.

Just think as well, a lot of online stuff can tend to be a bit of a smaller fit anyway so maybe a high street 16 might be good to go for you.

This made me laugh, I hope it tickles you.

I got my Take That outfit sorted out about a month ago. I decided to have a trying on session on Monday night. I’d got a top and a pair of black pants. The top was fine, the pants wouldn’t stay up and the legs were so baggy they looked like Crusty the clown should be wearing them !!!! I spent Monday evening totally re-modelling them. I had to take the legs in and run some knicker elastic through the waist so they wouldn’t fall down when I was bouncing with Robbie on Tuesday !!!!!

The moral of the story is of you’ve got to buy anything for a special occasion, do it the day before and not the month before !!!

Love and Hugs

HAHAHAAAAAA... I have been the SAME!! I did suss that bit out though and I haven't bought anything... going shopping on Sat for the big day on Wednesday!

I did order a pair of Bench jeans in a size 16, but the skinny style... well they were half price and I thought what the hell.... anyway, the waist was too BIG and they were too tight on the KNEES!! WTH... I think my knees are probably the smallest, boniest, skinniest part of me...lol! Needless to say, those babies are going back!

I can't wait to have a good old bounce with Robbie.... hmmmm, hope he recognises me now I am in a smaller size...lol xx
