I treated myself to a day of outlet shopping yesterday. Last July I squeezed my body into size 22w.
I ve been working hard in the attempt to get to a healthly size14. Well I found the prettiest skirt at a bargin but all they had was a size 2, 8 and 12 so I bravely took the 12 to the fitting room held my breath and omg zipped it up
I stepped out to look in the mirror( yes on the outside of door) and the sales girl said let me get you a better size thats not fitting you so well. My heart sunk was I too large? She brought back yhe 8 said your kidding.But much to my amazement it fits!!! Major happy dance.
