| Dolls clothes?
Last week I was in Wally's World (Wal-Mart), and stopped in the men's clothes section to see what was on sale. (I've been doing that a lot now that I can buy off the rack again.) Anyway, I pulled a shirt off the clearance rack and it looked too large, so I put it back and got the next size smaller. Then I picked out a pair of jeans to try on, too. I couldn't believe I was actually going to try these sizes on, but I went into the booth with them anyway. They looked like dolls clothes!
Before I put them on I held them up and thought "if I put these on I'll rip the seams out!" I tried it anyway, and they fit!! So instead of the 46" waist, I'm wearing a 34 and thinking a 32 may be in the near future. Instead of the 2XLT or 3XLT shirt (the "T" was to give me enough material to wrap around the overhang!) that I was wearing in December, I now wear a Small!
If these are actually dolls clothes, does that make me a doll? ;^)
WOW!!!!!!! Who'da thunk it?

I think that is great! Something I found funny, I gave my old clothes away, I wanted to wash them first, and as I was folding them, they looked so freakin' huge!!! I was holding them up and just staring at them, amazed!

Dolls clothes only fit a doll, so I guess so. Again, great job!

I do the same thing, I hold up the clothes and say to myself "nah, these aren't going to fit" but I try them on anyway and guess what, they fit!  It's such a wonderful feeling when those smaller clothes fit, isn't it?? |

LOL  I know the feeling...I can't tell my jeans apart from my daughters when I'm doing laundry....and that's just plain weird...she looks DINKY in my mind's eye...I still don't comprehend that I'm smaller....haven't had enough time yet to get accustomed to it!
