Lingerie shopping - it never fails
Morning,
You know, it seems America is getting fatter and fatter. Back when I was 170+ pounds, there was a plethora of clothing in stores from which to choose - Large, XLarge, XXLarge, etc.etc.etc.
Then I started going down from a size 18 in pants to 14 to 12 to 8….and all of a sudden, it seems like there’s more Plus size clothing in stores than small sized clothing in stores. Tons of choices there, but clothing in my size? Hah!
But that’s not the worst of it - losing weight has trimmed my figure from a 42DD to a 36C. That’s the good news. The bad news is….yet again, all the lingerie sizes seem focused towards big and hefty wenches again!! There’s bras for 38D and 40D and 42DD and …. but get to the nice genteel 36C, and the choices go out the window.
Ah well, these things happen. At least I’m getting the ‘perkier’ benefit of weight loss!
Have you encountered these issues? If so, the forum, Looking Good, Feeling Great, has some useful discussions on where to buy clothing once you’ve lost the weight.
Enjoy,
Barbara
