I love Medifast and losing all this weight, but MAN!!! It's getting pretty expensive...not the food, the clothing!! Not only do I have to continually buy smaller sizes, but I've suddenly developed the female "shopping gene". Something which I've always prided myself in missing. My method of shopping has always been a very practical matter. I'd usually go in, find what I was looking for...(no time for browsing), buy it and walk out the door. Would take 10- 15 minutes tops, because I wouldn't bother trying the stuff on, just go with the 3x or 4x or 5 x, (whatever the size du jour was).
That all changed today.. I shopped for over 5 hours! (Had an RTD halfway through. ) Can't remember when/if I ever did that before. Why there's a whole world of styles and colors once you get out of the "big, big girl" department. Plus I actually had the stamina to go out and shop and try on clothing for that long. Usually, trying on one pair of pants, would exhaust me. Add a couple of shirts and I'd need a medic and/or put me out of commission for the rest of the day.
So I wound up buying several new tops that are a little clingy, but should fit by the end of the month, AND...ready for it....some warm-ups in Size 14-16 pants!!! When I started Medifast 5 months ago I was in 28-30!
Medifast Rocks...and so do all of you on this board for allowing me to share and putting up with my ramblings. Have a Great Labor Day.
