Nope nothing at all...as like most of you I had various sizes that I collected over the years. I need to buy something as everything is too big now
I had to laugh the other day I had on a 3x shirt that looked like I had on someone else's shirt with a pair of jeans that I could easily wear 2 sizes smaller but you go thru clothes so fast that why waste the money only to turn around next month and need a size or two smaller? I did bring almost all of my spring/summer stuff to a consignment store thinking I paid alot of money for all my stuff I'm not gonna donate it if I can get a few dollars towards some smaller stuff My goal is to be able to fit in my sisters variety of sizes she has...lol...which range from 10-16 so I think I'm pretty close![]() Sherry7..I would wait unless it is something you find cheap enough! Godblessedme...I feel ya girl I need a girdle too my biggest complaint is my rolls aren't going anywhere even though they are it still seems like they aren't ![]()

I haven't purchased new clothes yet, but I have an assortment of clothes in sized 12 and up. My 24 yr old cousin had surgery almost 9 months ago and I have been carefully saving her clothes and sorting them into bags by size. In my closet I have size 18-20 right now. I have jeans out the wazoo in sizes 12, 14, and 16- Thanks to my cousin and her friend(who also had GB 2 years ago and handed everything off to my cousin) I plan to purchase work clothes and undies and such when I need them. If I wanted to dress like an early 20's college kid, I wouldn't have to buy anything.
I think the one thing I will have trouble adjusting to is shopping- What will shopping be like without Lane Bryant? Scary.

I did ask for one thing and my mother purchased it for me- Spanx. My cousin said when she first lost her bits were flapping about. She suggested wearing Spanx asap to help contain the deflated balloon look.
