Rewind to Christmas...
I unwrapped a box from my husband to find a very cute pair of workout pants. A very cute pair of size extra small workout pants.
As I held up the pair of itty-bitty pants and eyed them skeptically, my husband says, "I hope they'll fit-- I know they aren't the size you said you wear, but they didn't HAVE number sizes, and you're *little* now, and they *looked* right..." He must have picked up on my disbelief when I spotted the tag with the size on them.
When I tried them on, they fit.
I was incredulous. I went online and googled the brand, trying to figure out if maybe it was vanity sizing... and instead found that reviews accused the brand of running SMALL.
... holy smokes! I have extra small pants! What strange universe is this???
It then occurred to me that all my pants have been a little baggy lately. But really, *extra* small??? I don't remember being that size ever in my life.
Very grateful to the husband for seeing what I hadn't allowed myself to see.
