Shopping but not buying

[Mrs.RRn 2,111]

When I first started shopping I went to the store and cried in the fitting room. I was so overwhelmed. I called my daughter and told her I didn't know what I was supposed to look like. I didn't think it would be so hard or so emotional for me. I had to figure out my style and get used to things fitting my body and not just hanging on me.

I quickly got over that and I love shopping now!

I cried the first few times too.

The first thing I purchased after losing wt was undies from Victoria Secret. The sales lady asked me what size I wear, and I said, "I don't knnnooowww." And starting crying. Haha. "Don't worry. I'll help you... You look like either a medium or large. We have XL, but you definitely won't fit those." ... And then I starting crying again. LOL

Shopping is so much fun now!

I was always a good shopper but now I'm an excellent shopper. I've lost over 50lbs and nothing fits and have had to get a few new items. But things I've bought have either been a bit tighter or things that will look great no matter what size.

When I booked my surgery my husband walked into our closest and looked at my side and just let out this all mighty s&"t and I though he hurt him self so I ran over to him concerned. Hex said that we will need a second mortgage to replace all the clothes in my closest. I laughed and laughed

Ok am I the only one who bought new clothes all the way through

It made me feel better to buy stuff at each stage.

Nordstrom rack is a good place to get a deal.

If you don't mind standing in a line for a half hour.

Guilty!!

I justify my purchases by donating the clothes I outshrink to the women's shelter where I volunteer.

I have always loved shopping. Now I L.O.V.E it.

a woman I met in the clinic waiting room told me that she shops in thrift stores....that makes such sense. She's lost 150 lbs. After we've lost weight we want to look good, but not go bankrupt. I think thrift stores are a great solution, especially when still losing. Lots of good options in most cities.
