I am SOOOO excited!!!!!
Hello my buddies
I just have to share with you my shopping trip today.
I went to the mall to look for some shirts as all of mine are too big and some new jeans but wasn’t sure I’d have much success finding those.
I went into Cotton Ginny. If you aren’t familar with that store it has plus size clothes on the one side and then regular size clothes on the other side.
I went in and automatically went to the plus side and the sales woman came over to me and asked if I was shopping for a gift for someone or for myself today.
I said oh just for myself and I’m just going to have a look around thanks.
She said oh well you are on the wrong side and need to go over to the other side to find your size.
Well that was the best thing I heard in a long time.
I was beaming from ear to ear and the woman was looking at me. She must have thought I was crazy.
I felt like I had to explain and I told her the last time I shopped there I needed to shop on this side.
She said wow good for you.
She was a big woman and she asked me what my secret was.
I said sorry but I wish there was a secret.
She said dang it don’t tell me eating right and exercising?
We both laughed when I said yup sorry.
It was funny and man did I feel great, still do actually.
Oh also I did find some jeans that fit.
First pair I tried on was a 15 which I thought would be too small.
To be honest I wasn’t completely sure I should be on the regular size side of the store yet.
But I tried them on and they were too big wow.
Then I tried on a 13 and wow they actually fit and fit well.
I am so pleased.
Anyhow buddies just wanted to share that with you.
Not too many other people around me would understand how great that felt.
Take care and have a great evening and stay strong

I am very happy for you I have been having my sister and friends give me there smaller clothes but I to went right to the plus size when I was in Catos the other day. It makes you feel real good when you get a pair to try on and them be to big. I love shopping now just to try clothes on makes me happy. I am now having to buy petites because I’m only 5′3 so every thing is to long now. I have a pair of 16 that are getting to big for me now I just love getting into a smaller pair. I am so glad to have this web site where others get as excited as I do. Keep up the good work we can do this!!
