Déjà vu

I had such a flashback yesterday while trying on clothes in the Targ3t dressing room. I looked so fat! I distinctly remember the last time I was preparing to go into my office (of my last job) when I was at least this heavy. This is not fun. I have until Friday to come up with at least four nice outfits.

I really hate L@ne Bry@nt. The clothes there are so expensive. I found items that were very similar and made nicer at Targ3t and 0ld N@vy for half the price. In fact I found the same bra at a third of the price. They just aren’t worth it if you are a size 20, 3X, or below. I know that if you’re larger than that you may have no choice.

I’ll take pictures of the outfits once I figure them out.

I’m not feeling so great because I’m running around like a chicken with my head cut off and haven’t had time to exercise. It’s nearly impossible for me to lose or maintain when I can’t exercise. I didn’t have the courage to weigh myself this morning. My pants are feeling tight so I can imagine.

Ugh, I had a similar experience at Target. All the shirts were made of panty-hose thin material that clung to every bulge and dimple. I almost cried.

But enough about me. You will find the outfits you need and I'd love to see them! I don't know if they have a Fashion Bug near you, but it's worth the drive in my opinion. Half the store is "regular" size women's and the other half is plus-size, so there are a ton of trendy options at good prices.
