That’s right, I’m all ready in plus size swimsuits, and yet for some reason, we have tons of chocolate in the house. Where did it all come from? The holidays seem to relate to food quite often. Cookies, cakes, chocolate, goodies, you name it. Let alone the carb heavy mashed potatoes, stuff and more. Dear goodness, you’ll have to roll me out of my house when January comes around
I had to put on my plus size swimsuit in November. We took a trip to Florida, and I was reminded I’m heavier than I want to be. I get to hide in baggy sweatshirts in the winter, and there was my pale, naked skin covered in a tiny big of clingy cloth. Not a pretty site, but I put it on and smiled anyway.
A few more months until bathing suit season. I’ll probably still be in plus sizes, but maybe I can be in small plus size one next time!

My plus size sweatshirt shrank on me! Yikes, luckily it was okay in this circumstance. I bought a sweatshirt, and I go between two sizes, so I bought the bigger size, just in case. It was huge, and swimming on me. (that in itself is a rarity!) I pop it into the wash, and it totally shrank! I hate that….in this case, it was okay, but I wanted it to fit like when I bought it. Let me explain, I actually bought two plus size sweatshirts…one in size.
I wanted one to be super baggy for jammies, and the other to be a good fit for going out in.
Turns out the super baggy one will fit normal now, and the one that fit okay will end up “just fitting”. Blah…
Why, oh why must clothing shrink so much. Seriously, I’m aware of shrinkage, but somethings take on a life of their own and shrink like CRAZY!
I fell in love with the sweatshirt the first time I wore it, so ran back to buy another. It has a partial zipper, so it’s not snug around your neck…it’s a hoodie, and I loved the color combination and look. Guess the joke was on me…I should have stuck with just one. Live and learn my friends, live and learn!
