Having problems with new clothes

Okay, I am weird, I hate to shop for clothes. It has always been painful, nothing fit, and I always felt humilitated.

Once I begun to loose a lot I went out and bought a couple things. I refused to go into the little hot sweaty try on room, so I guessed. My pants were too big, but much small than what I was wearing. Shirts, I tried them on over my clothes. I guessed with undies. How are you suppose to know!?!?!?!?

Well - I am buying the wrong sizes. My daughter bought me some undies, okay I am dumb, I have no idea what size I wear. THEY FIT. Two sizes smaller than I just purchased. I cannot believe it. She also bought me two tops which I was sure would not fit, would be WAY TOO TIGHT. They fit, smaller size than I bought when I went out. In fact, on shirt is a little big, but it will work for a month or so. The shirts I bought, good grief!

I am having trouble with my body image. How do you do this? I am so afraid I will go in the the size will be the same as it use to be. Undies, what do you do about that.

Before I kept gaining weight. It was easy, just buy two sizes higher, you know, you stretch out your jeans until the seams bust and then you just get two sizes or so bigger. Usually they fit. Same for undies. Didn't have to worry.

Now, are these sizes for real???!!!??? I am serious. Help me, I can't wear an 18-20, that is too small. This is so stupid, but serious too. I have lost 50 pounds, but my clothes were from the beginning of the year and I have lost almost 70 from that, I lost almost 20 pounds before I saw the Surgeon from nerves.

Just any help would be nice. I know I should accept that the size fits, but I just don't believe it and I just can't face the stores. Debbie :thumbup:

Well. last time I had a 4cc band and after 2 fills I was golden.

My weight was so high the lbs melted off for the first 6 mts, not a lot of activity.

This time around with the 14cc band it has taken along time to

fill so I have been a tad frustrated.

But I have good restriction now and am enjoying the dancing,

so I am in a good frame of mind.

So tell me about the wii fitness????

I love biggest loser, what about that game with Jillian???

truthfully the jillian game isn't what I expected, and not nearly as fun as the wii fit, but hey it adds variety. I need that. You do things like jogging, and rowing boats, and jumping jacks with Jillian. The graphics aren't nearly as good as some of the games I've played on the wii. The wii fitness or wii fit has a ton more variety. I love it, as much as one could love exercise. The best part of that is it's not like you're working out. It's more like you're playing a game, with the added bonus.
