I bought some new clothes a couple of months back for my trip to Germany this Thursday, and while packing some of the shirts I noticed I bought the wrong size - a small instead of a medium. I was PISSED, but decided to try it on anyway.

I unbuttoned it, threw it on, and buttoned it back up one by one... and IT FIT. Not 'just barely' or snug, but actually fit right and proper!

WHAT?! When I BOUGHT the shirt I could NOT fit in it. WOW!

And I've been feeling 'fat' lately! Not anymore!

    I always buy what I call "Motivation Clothes".
    These clothes are one size too small, and once every week, I try them on.
    Maybe this can work for some of you.

    YIPPEEE!! That is so awesome :smile: :smile:

    I've been having nsv's a bit lately, too..............almost all of my summer clothes from LAST summer are too big. Have given some away, have HOT-washed & hot-dried some to shrink them ( I never, ever do that!), and had to buy some NEW ones.

    ENJOY YOUR TRIP!
