NSV (Non Scale Victory)

I went shopping yesterday at Cato's..looking for something to wear over top of a tank top (to hide my horrible sagging bat wings).  Couldn't find anything at Walmart, so i stopped at Cato's.  Was having a hard time finding what i wanted there.  The lady who works there asked me if i needed any assistance and I told her what i was looking for and asked if they carried all the same clothing on the other side of the store (the plus sizes) as they do on the misses side.  She made my day by answering "no, we do carry some different clothing on that side too, but you are too small to fit into anything over there"..

I had the biggest smile on my face for the rest of the day..because i still don't feel i am too small to shop on that side, but obviously she thinks i am!

Here's a pic of the tank top i bought..and the black shirt to wear over top of it..hopefully one day i will be able to have my arms done and feel good in JUST the tank top..


Here's a before pic..and me with blonde hair (taken a few days ago) and last summer with dark hair..



I have to update my bar down below..I am down to 183 now..and feeling fabulous!

Awww Dawnie, you rock!  Love the pix and you are sooooo too small to be looking in those plus sizes.  I know what you mean about the arms, I've been buying shrugs w/ 3/4 sleeves to put over my tanks.  They look really cute in all different colors...Woot Woot for you!!
