Hi girls, I really need to jump back on this thread. I am trying to find my motivation. I went dress shopping last Saturday and it was very humiliating. Its a good job I have a sense of humor. I brought my sister (who is very over weight) and my BF who is also over weight. All the sample dresses were a size 6 I am a street size 16 so can you just imagine. I was wearing my suck everything in bodyshaper. Thank god the sales girl who of course was a size -2 lol left me in the change room alone. The first dress was beautiful a halter style, I thought okay I should be able to slip into this dress feet first. OMG I heard a rip, there was no way that sucker was going past my hips. I tried putting it on over my head, my hair barrette went flying off and I got all tangled in the dress lol. I quickly put the dress on the hanger. Sales girl pops in to help at this point lol. We managed to slide the other dresses over my head and I kinda wiggled and jiggled in the dresses. Of course non of them did up at the back. At first I was so embarrassed, when I came out of the dressing room it seemed everyone was staring at me and thinking that poor woman there is nothing here to fit her. After the initial shock was over I just went with the flow and all 3 of us had lots of laughs. I had planned on going shopping in December but the Maggie Sottero dress I loved on line was being discontinued. Turns out it was not the dress for me. I did find my dress and its still a Maggie Sottero - Odessa, and its not being discontinued so I will be able to order it in December. So I would love to at least drop 1 dress size before I get measured! Here are my stats. 183 140 July 8, 2011 Junk food, fast food take out, I have started Jillian 30 day shred plan on going back to the gym!
