it is down to my weird sense of humour. Bet you would have smiled if you saw the same procession

And I STILL stick by my words.
I’m not sure if you are a thrift shopper or not but we have what’s called ‘value villages’ where we live which are secondhand stores. When I lost a whole lot of weight I wouldn’t wear shorts, skirts or dresses and once I lost weight I had the same problems you are describing. My only saving grace is that I’ve got about 4 more inches on me.

Either way I hated not being able to wear a dress or skirt and gradually as I lost weight I’d go into these second hand places , hand over my oversized clothes and pick up something more stylish and fashionable . Each year I’d do this until I was finally at the size I liked. The great part about doing this is that you can buy really unique things at an affordable price. Doing this allows you to recreate your wardrobe which will make you feel fantastic and motivate you to keep it up.

It also allows you to experiment with your selections some.
There may be styles of clothes that you never even considered would look good on you. Later if you really like that style you may wish to purchase something similar that’s brand new and feel like a million bucks.

Some people snub their noses at secondhand clothes but there’s a lot to be said about them. There’s endless versatility in every size imaginable, it’s fun, it’s exciting and it doesn’t break the bank so your husband will be happy too.

That’s how I recreated my wardrobe and now wear skirts, dresses and shorts and I was BIG before so understand these stages you’re going through. They are tough but YOU can do this.

LQ, try a Google search for "Petite short-sleeved maxis".

So how come I sometimes see adverts with men's underwear.

There's no hope for you!

And I get dating sites with Asian babes!

But I'm very respectable!
