It Finally Fits!

I walked into Lane Bryant and headed straight for my usual size 20 in all the skirts, dresses and tops. One employee said, “You look a lot smaller than a 20.” I nodded and replied, “Yeah, but looks can be deceiving.” My little 5-foot frame was indeed a size 20. Or so I thought. To my amazement the grey, sexy skirt I tried on just slid down off my body. I. Couldn’t. Believe. It. I am proud to say that I went down TWO sizes, from a 20 to a 14/16. I was so excited and couldn’t wait to show off all my new clothes.

When I got home, I decided to test out a size 14 suede skirt that my mother purchased for me months ago. I loved that skirt, but could never get into it. And guess what? IT FIT! It was slimming, sexy and my calves looked great in the heels I threw on. Things are coming together and I'm slowly but surely making my way down the scale. From Lane Bryant I might just be going to Express! But let’s not get too far ahead of ourselves.
