"Back Away from the Rack..."
Okay girls, back me up on this...guys, you might feel slightly uncomfortable with this blog but I think you'll survive.
I am going out tonight. I went shopping (light shopping of course) at a few trend stores nearby. I think I am going to abstain from shopping until I get further along with therapy! (just kidding of course). First of all, I bought a pair of jeans that I really liked. Now, I can accept the fact that in those stores, I have to buy a size up ( I am shopping in the same store as "seventeen year old sally" - erm, no hips, no butt...okay fine, I'll swallow that). I tried them on in the store, check out, blah blah blah get home, work out, shower, put them on to wear out and POOF they are too small for me! or at least it seems that way, I am putting them away for a few days until I have the security to don them a second time. I can buy a size up and rationalize that I am shopping in teenager store, but I cannot...will not! accept two sizes larger...yeeek! breathing...I am breathing.
On that note, if another person tries to sell me the idea that they "feel sorry for girls my age" because there is no way possible to be thin anymore because of "hormones in stuff...like milk, meat...et. al." (and this has been told to me directly from a well meaning person) I might just throw a tantrum, or at least start mooing.
okay, I'm wearing the jeans...this is war, I will not be bested by a tag, a store, a piece of denim! Revolution!!

Perhaps I should have had a "Second and Third of all"...or an editor.
