NSV Victories!

So I'm at at this plus-sized store, name not to be mentioned, in their clearance rack trying to decide what to buy. Needless to say, this is the end of the winter season and I'm confused as to what to buy because I don't know what size I'll be next winter season. As usual, I buy this shirt that is all season, I live in the upper East Coast of the U.S.A and I want something that can work for me in the coming spring season. I'm trying to decide between a 18/20 and a 14/16. My mind is telling me to the buy the 18/20, I started this journey with a tight 26/28, but my other voice was saying there is not guarantee you'll be a 14/16 by the end of the summer. I say all this to say that I tried the 18/20 sweater-like shirt on and it fit so well. I was amazed!

Yay. That must have felt good.

Be careful, you will loose more weight quicker than you think. I just got home from the outlet mall and set a new record for purchases I think. I was a 24 / 3x in Oct. today I'm an XL and a 14. I didn't allow myself to try on any plus size clothes. (These purchases have to last all summer). I was shocked how everything fit me. Now I have to learn that just because it fits doesn't mean that I have to buy it! I'm hoping that buy the end of the summer these clothes will all be way too big. I don't think I will buy ahead anymore because it is hard to guess what size you will end up.

This is great, but I would also caution you about buying clothes more than a season ahead. You may blow past the plus sizes by winter-time.

Feels awesome, so happy for you.
