I took a trip down memory lane last night. I was remembering a time when I was about 17 yrs old and had gained some weight. So, I spent the summer working out and eating healthy. By the end of the summer I had lost the weight. I felt amazing. My mom took me shopping for the first time after loosing the weight. We stopped by this little boutique with lots of skinny clothes. I tried on lots of clothes. They all fit so well. How was I going to decide what to buy? I ended up with a couple really cute pieces. Many years later that body was long gone and I no longer fit into those clothes. At this point in time, I have gotten rid of all of them. It is very sad. I do still have pictures of me in a couple of them.
It has been that long since I have felt that good during a shopping trip. I no longer look forward to clothes shopping. For me it isn’t the size of clothes that matters. It is how it makes you feel. When I put on an XL shirt and it is too small….there is a problem. Not to mention the belly hangs over or it makes your arms look big. Nobody likes that. Did you notice how I said the shirt “makes your arms look big.” It’s the shirt’s fault right? So what happens? We quit shopping. At least I do. I am looking forward to getting that feeling back. Who doesn’t want to feel that way? I love the powerful feeling of confidence.
