I'm now down 18.8 lbs and feeling smaller all the time. My friends wedding is coming up in a few days and I desperately need something appropriate to wear! I decided to go try to find something sexy yet formal for a winter wedding. While shopping for the dress I always knew I needed a new bathing suit for Jenny's daughter's birthday party at the pool the next day.
While shopping for the dress I asked for assistance. I explained I was trying to find something that said, "look at all the weight I have lost! Now look back at the bride please!" She held up an XLG and said, "This one is nice" and then gave me a sad face and said, "But it only comes in a small." I dropped my jaw, put my hand on my hip and said, "That's an XLG! And why don't you think I'd fit in a small. Or that particular XLG you're holding?!" She blushed and said, "oh sorry, the hanger is labeled wrong. I thought, "Even so, that dress could wrap around me three times!"
Maybe I'm not as small as I think I am. I decided, for the moment, to focus on the bathing suit. I also decided to grab some more tights. I put on my ensemble in the changing room and laughed outloud. My bridesmaid, Ryan, who was shopping with me asked what was so funny. I snapped this picture and explained, "I look like one of those girls from the 80's aerobic videos.
Later I did find a sexy knit dress at another store but nothing really shook the fact that she held up this huge dress and gave me a piteous look that it would never fit me.
