bra fitting

Well, I can mark another item off my list. T came along with me for my bra fitting. I'll tell you what, some women have absolutely no issues with being nude, but I am not one of them. After mearsuing me, the lady said she'd be back with some bra's for me to try. I told her that I was interested in a Spanx. The lady told me that she didn't think that she could get me one of those because I was measuring a 36 DDD!!!! Are you freaking kidding me! Long story short, we agreed that I could also wear a 38 DD to make it a little easier to find bras but she encouraged me to only take that option if I had to. After trying on at least 6 or 7 different bras I had a hard time figuring anything out. I had my heart set on the Spanx so I bought one. I'm wearing it right now but I'm still not sure if it's the right bra for me. I felt obligated to buy a bra after the woman spent all the time with me but should have probably taken T's advice and just waited around a bit.

What I did learn in the end is that there is no standard bra size out there and you should try on every single one before you buy it. If you like it in the store, buy a million of them and go home. I'm still waiting for that perfect bra. As of right now, the Spanx is not perfect. So, my search continues.

times the are a changing....

I did wonderfully over Christmas...didn't gain any weight. However, after our BIG trip to California, I've gained 8 pounds! I haven't been to a WW meeting since the week before Christmas and decided to cancel my membership. I've got to get things straight on my own first and foremost and more importantly get in the right mindset before I can do this. I thought paying the money would be motivation enough for me to change, but it wasn't.

I have some of my WW materials and plan on continuing on my own for a little bit. Let's see what happens.
