NSV - Workout Clothes

Was at Target yesterday and walked by the "Active Wear" section and remembered that I wanted to look for new workout clothes. The set I have is getting annoyingly loose and is too hot for summer. They didn't have "plus sizes" so I just went for the biggest size they had...and they fit! Even the pants, which is huge for me because I carry most of my weight in my bottom half :laugh:

I still have to do most of my shopping in the plus sizes, but every time I can buy even one thing from the "normal people" section feels like a victory!

    I'm the biggest size you can get in the "normal people" section too. I just wish I could wear some of the cute little workout shorts without my thighs eating them. :/ I'll get there!

    :laugh: I tried on a pair of shorts and hemmed and hawed...I only didn't get them because I'm thinking about trying that "Couch to 5k" and I know my thighs will burn like crazy in shorts!!

    Haha I'm doing C25K, and I attempted one day in shorts. Ouch! I had to quit early and redo it the next day. It's capris for this girl for a while. Next summer I'll be a cute little chicky running around in shorts!

    It felt great!!

    I forgot about this...but I had to pick up some water shoes for my mom for the summer and I had her on the phone and she's like "Try them on and tell me how they fit". I had to remind her I've lost a shoe size, so we don't wear the same size anymore :laugh:
