In-Between Sizes

While on one hand ~ it's a good sign...  on the other, it's annoying as hell... being in-between sizes...

I'm desparately needing to replace my wardrobe... I've been holding off because I'm suppose to be losing weight...

but I need clothes NOW!   So ~ I try pants on in my "normal" size... they look and feel alittle baggy    so I go down a size... they feel alittle too tight around the belly...   I hate this;  I hate this in-between sizes phase...

but I'm really really needing clothes now... the things I have now are so worned and washed out ~ even stretched out ~ I look dumpy...  and feeling frustrated about my appearance leads to ice cream...

I know... I know... concentrate on the positives here!!  my "normal" size is BAGGY on me!!!  yeah!!!   (but I just needed to vent alittle...) 

I guess it's a good problem to have...

Skirts

.... and that is why I choose a lot of skirts right now LOL!!  Not necessarily "dresses" because depending on how big they are and just hangin on you all wrong, it just looks a mess, but with skirts, I can hide things and make it work and not look frumpy.

I totally understand - I hate it too!!  You don't want to buy more of the big size, but you aren't quite happy with the smaller size.... sigh.  Good luck!

And keep up the great efforts!!

Good problems are still problems!  Tried different shops?  Over here you can be 5 different sizes in 5 different shops!

Been There

Okay so I'm not there now but I am happy for you even though it's extremely annoying for you and hearing you talk about not being in your normal size motivates me.  Kinda funny how something that is a problem for one person can motivate someone else, isn't it? 

I know what you mean

First, thanks for your comment and for being so welcoming. :)

Second, I totally know what you mean. I went shopping the other day and had that problem too. I personally went for the smaller size because it will *hopefully* give me some motivation to lose enough to fit into them perfectly, lol. But, in any event, be excited about being in between! You're on the right track and will get there!!! Good luck!

No time!

You'll be in that smaller size in no time.  But you're right, being between sizes SUCKS!  Keep up the great work!

between means going down

Hi!

We get as many do-overs as it takes to keep getting up again and trying. At least that's my opinion.

Glad to see we are both back. Makes a lot of sense you would be careful with yourself given the health issues. Be kind to yourself and take it slow.
