I only ate twice today, but I had a late breakfast and an early supper and I'm not hungry tonight. I went out in the afternoon, back to the thrift store to see if I could find pants for work. I wasn't able to find anything that fit properly; if it fit in the waist the backside and legs were too baggy. I also looked at jeans but it was the same situation. It is astonishing the selection that is available for the smaller sizes, I think even just being able to wear a 16 is going to make finding clothes a lot easier. I also find it astonishing that I can have lost almost 80 lbs and have only gone from a size 22 to an 18. The pants I was wearing for work when I started were a 22, and the ones I am wearing to work now are a 20. They are loose to the point of being risky to wear, but they are not so baggy as to look as awful as the 18s I was trying on today. It's strange how different makes can fit so differently. I wish my stomach was more in proportion to the rest of me, I've always hated how I carry all my weight around my middle. I might make a trip to the mall tomorrow and hit the plus size stores, and see if I can find something that will be comfortable and affordable to wear for work. There was something nice about today however. I wore the silver splash pants and the black Nike shirt I bought so many years ago to shrink into, and never did. I never threw them away, tho, because I was determined, and I pulled them out today to try on, because my black splash pants I've been wearing when I run errends and such have gotten baggy and are starting to look bad. When I tried on the silver they fit very comfortably, I probably could have been wearing them for a while. The shirt must be a L, and it is slimmer than I'm used to wearing, but it looks good on me, it is also very comfortable. I feel wonderful wearing this outfit; wearing it, I know I am the smallest I have been in years and years and years.
