Odd, but good!, NSV

  • Popular Post

So once again, I find myself out buying clothes because the ones from 6 weeks ago are falling off... I'm at Walmart (inexpensive) and of course I keep looking to the XXL or XL but I'm squarely now in Larges. After enough trying on clothing, I'm leaving but see a really cute top.

Here's the odd-good NSV. I didn't feel like going BACK to the dressing room, so with out thinking, I just took the shirt, pulled it over my head OVER the top I'm wearing. Skid to halt---- huh? Before WLS I would need to strip down to my skivvies! And the funny thing was I didn't think twice before I did it!

Boom!

And yes, fit perfectly.

I too still look in the 1x to x-large sizes and for the most part I go for the x-large shirts. I don't like a top to be form fitting at all! I've not had any plastics done and yes when I sit you can see my belly :-(

I'm 59 years old and these tops have been in my closet for years. I did also use some 2x tops before surgery. I've lost most my weight in the "boobs" and from the hips down. I'm in a mostly size 8 skinny jean at old Navy, and some 10's if I buy them elsewhere and they are an off brand.

But I am happy with my weight loss so far and I reckon I will still look in the x-large size shirts.

Oh and yes I have gotten rid of all those huge shirts and pants more than a couple times. I've had fun shopping for clothes now that I've lost weight.

Great unusual NSV!! I've been known to slip on a top or jacket without returning to the dressing room again. What's the harm as long as we don't walk out of the store with the item on :) LOL!!!

I still look at a lot of 2XL tops even though I can comfortably wear XL and some Large depending on style. I still have to fit my hips and prefer a certain length to help cover my belly. I'm 60 years old and seriously doubt that I will ever have any plastic surgery done.

Congratulations on your success!!

Congratulations to all of us for the great progress we've made already!!

Well done. Great NSV.
