I had to record a 3 lb. gain today. I do think I gained a little (had a VERY bad weekend) but not 3 lbs. worth (just finished TOM so I'm blaming that LOL). So to make myself feel better, I'll post the NSV I had yesterday.

I went to Target and tried on a dress and two styles of shorts. I grabbed the dress in an XL. It fit, but was a little big. The L would have fit (dresses are hard for me because I have a disproportionately large chest). Then the shorts...I figured they would run small because it's Target (and internet consensus seems to be that Merona usually runs true to size or small, very few people think it runs large). Well, I bought a size smaller than most of my clothes. A size 12. I have a couple of 12's now, but brands that I know run larger (INC jeans and Loft). I figured I wouldn't hit a true 12 until fall. But after yesterday, I'm thinking I just might be there!

    Awesome news! I loooove going shopping and finding clothes that I'd never imagine would fit, actually fitting!!

    And don't worry about the 3lbs... My scale told me 7. Haha... I don't think so (TOM and a tequila binge a couple nights ago)
