rude awakening
We went to my husbands aunts house last night. His aunt gave me this really cool tank top, but when i looked at it, i thought to myself(this is WAY to big for me)………….anyways, it was xl, she had me try it on, and it fit. OMG, I can’t believe it fit. I have never been so ashamed as at that moment. I wanted to crawl under a rock. I cant even believe she bought me an XL. I think i want to carry it with me, so whenever i want to eat something bad, i’ll just look at that top. I guess everyone who has lost any weight has had a moment like that. It’s my time now. I need to do this for me, no one else. I’m ready to do this now. yeah

each article of clothing fits differently, you know that! You may fit an xl in some things but not in everything! I got an xl pair of sweats for xmas from my mother in law-who has been railing on me to lose the weight for 3 years now, and I was mortified too! The xl stage is well behind me, I am intop 10’s and some 8’s now, but I took them and smiled, and yes they fit! I was mad cause I don’t even want any pants in my possesion that even say xl! I want them all to say Medium! No more large BS! Lol….anyways I figured out that Derek Heart is a kids/young adult brand and thats what they were, so I am fitting into young adults clothes…ok so that made me feel better, but still its an XL! Ok, wear your tank under your clothes stay warm and hate that thing! The motivation it will give you under your sweaters is all you willl need to push you in the right direction! I have faith in you this will be the year you show them who’s boss! Angie
I have seen those LAREGE type shirts/T-shirts and let me tell you, they make food sizes crazy big and they make clothes shorter and smaller. I still fit into M, L, and XL and so it just depends on the style. I COMPLETELY understand the embarrassment, but please try and keep a healthy mind. Do not stray too far from being proud of the fact that you are improving in your life everyday.
