Fat Real Estate Receptionist :/

ChangingLifestyles

I just scored a job at a Real Estate office as a receptionist! I am so incredibly happy but when I went shopping for office dresses today, I got quite depressed. I may have gained an awesome job but I also a lot of weight. I saw so many dresses and I grabbed them because it was my old size and when I put them on, some of them wouldn't even go past my arms. I've became a whale.
I won't sit around and complain but this was really a serious wake up call and inspiration as well. So I will definitely be working out again from now on and watching what I eat!

Does shopping depress you?

Hi and welcome. By coming here you have made the first step, and don't call yourself a whale. Life happens and bad habits can creep in, but you need to look forward. Good luck!

I work conveyancing/front desk for a real estate company too! Add me!

Shopping can be depressing, but by joining this site - you are on the right track. Soon, when you start trying on stuff and realize you have to go down a size - you will feel amazing about yourself. That will come, just takes some hard work and dedication.

First of all, congrats on the job! Way to go!

Yes, shopping depresses me, too. However, I tell myself I'm doing something about it.

Since you're on a weight loss program, you might buy clothes at a thrift shop (for next to nothing) and then donate them back when your size drops.
