NSV: Bought clothes from Target (not B&T section)

When I started MFP, I was squeezing (and stretching) myself into 3XL shirts and 48 waist pants. This Saturday, I bought a XXL shirt and XXL pair of shorts (44/46) from Target -- from the normal section of clothes. 3 months ago, nothing from section I purchased both items would have fit me. It feels good to not have to go to Casual male or order online from the big and tall section to get my clothes.

Technically my pants would probably still be found in big and tall sections, but I can easily find XXL shirts at most department stores without having to go to the "fat" section. And I'm almost in 44 waist pants -- my 46s are getting loose and need a belt. Many department stores carry 44s in their regular sections.

I won't feel like I've completely moved out of the "fat" section until I can wear L shirts and 38 waist pants (the largest size some of the boutique-type stores carry), but it's a nice start!

Thats great! I can wait to get out of the plus sizes. Much less expensive and very much cuter!!
