I lost 2 stone in the tail end of last year and today for the first time in years I dared to go into a normal clothes shop and try on normal clothes. I used to need to shop at plus size stores.
I'm just sneaking into a normal clothes range. I was reading that Next has pretty generous sizing which is why I thought I'd try it today! I'm wearing a size 20 jeggings in this picture. I didn't buy them as they didn't suit but I was just so pleased to get into them I cried
Need to get a few new bits of clothing as everything is very loose but totally new to shopping normally. I'd like to go this weekend, if anyone has any suggestions of what shops would work well I'd really appreciate it.
Looking though clothes rails over and over and finding nothing in a large enough size really puts me off shopping. I don't want to try a store that does carry size 22 but only on 2 items and makes me rifle through all the lovely clothes I'm not allowed to wear before finding them.
I just want to capitalise on this good feeling. I have more weight loss to go and this is a new motivator for me!
