Default My WOW Moments this week

Well first off, I was able to cross my legs at the knees today. I haven't been able to do that for quite a while. I did it and didn't even realize it until it was pointed out to me!!

My second one was shopping for a new jacket. I found a really cute 3-in-1 jacket with the zip out liner on clearance for 30.00. I loved it and wouldn't even try it on as I figured a XL would be too small. I was going to buy a different one in 1x and my mom wouldn't let me as she said it looked too big on me. She made me try the XL on and it fit!!!

I am so used to buying my clothes baggy, that I have forgotten how they are supposed to fit for real. I am really struggling with this. I can't get over the fact that they look ok a bit tighter and fitted. I hate all this head stuff.....

LeAnne it is a lot of head re-arrangments. But in time hopefully you will start to find comfort in buying clothes that fit your body and not bag. I am dealing with the same issue. I am still holding on to a couple pair of size 28 jeans and I wear a size 24. I don't think I will ever go out of my big baggy sweaters. I love sweaters. I am still working on crossing my legs, I have never been able to do that. I will have to take pictures of that and post it when I do. Congrats on your WOWs and many more to come.

Thanks guys for all your encouragement and support. It really helps to be able to see that others are going through the same things at the same time.

I am not sure what I would do without reading all your stories, etc
