I have been overweight/obese for most of my teen years and all of my adult life. I have always loved Halloween and getting dressed up, but finding a costume at a store was always a depressing experience. I had to find the small plus size section and hopefully find something fun. Many years I just tore up some old clothes and went as a zombie. This year I shopped in the regular department, found an awesome costume and I feel confident enough in my body to wear it. Later, I went to the mall to get some tights and shoes and while there I walked past Lane Bryant and happily thought, I will never have to shop in the plus size section again!
