Shopping Woes ...

.. *screams* I've had enough of going clothes shopping but not being able to find anything to fit :mad:

My mission today was to go to Freeport on my lunch break ( http://www.freeport-braintree.com/ ) and find :

1 White T-shirt bra ( Bra with no seams so it looks nicer under a tight t-shirt )

Bikini

Now seeing as I don't want a bikini with flowery crap on it I would get the easy one first .. a white bra !

Went into the Gossard shop they had the perfect item ! .. but not in my size - because I'm an awkward size ( 30E/32DD ) and because they had an outlet shop they don't stock the awkward sizes .. ok fairysnuff so I checked the other HUGE underwear shop .. nope NOTHING in my size :/

On to the Bikini !!!

Went into a few shops and finally found a nice one which would suit my shape ( pear shaped with stumpy legs & big boobs ) it fitted nicely but two of the shell decortations popped off ! so I promptly put it back on the shelf :/

I know I'm an awkward size but dear god allmighty I would KILL to just be able to walk into a shop and find something that fits me

*Rant Over*

See that's another thing I can't do ... order clothes online because I'm an awkward shape ( and only 5ft tall ) I HAVE to try things on to make sure they fit ... does my bloody head in

Pic of the top half - That's my bikini from last year and they've grown another cup-size since that pic was taken

They don't look THAT big there. Either way, looks much better with seams, without makes them look borrring.

An E cup does sound huge but they aren't THAT big because I'm only a 30 back so therefore the cup is actually smaller

you hurt your elbow?

I had an implant removed from my arm - It's all better now thanks

The reason I took that pic like that was when I saw a pic from the BBQ meet it hit me that I needed to lose weight and then when I thought I had made a bit of progess I wanted to re-create the pose with the same clothes on so I could compare

BBQ pic was August 2005 and that pic was about March 2006

You’re comfortable and proud enough of yourself to show others, perhaps even inspiring them in the process. Not only that but to admit you not happy and then do what you need to do to be satisfied, takes a lot of courage.

All I can say is Desmo is a very lucky guy indeed to of found you piggymon.

And except for the jet black hair you looked absolutely perfect in either picture in my opnion.

That's a lovely thing to say thank you

I am getting there slowly and I will be the shape I want to be by July - I'm determined to get there and I'm not giving up until I do !

I never used to do any exercise and used to eat crap but was a size 6 ( with smaller B cup boobies

)

Then I gave up smoking and got all happy and put 2 stone on :eek:

It took me a while to really do anything about it and there's been a few times when I felt like giving up and resigning to be a blob but with support from Desmo and the lovely lads and lasses in the dieting thread I found something that worked for me

I'm now going to the Gym 5 times a week totalling 5 and a half hours and I only eat healthily

I know there's certain parts of my body I CANNOT change but I think I will get 95% there so the other 5% I can learn to live with

Hair is now dark brown/red so that should please you !

I really have no idea how close Braintree is to Cambridge, but there's a store here if you're ever nearby.

Not tooo far, If we're ever in the area I'll make sure I'll look it up ... thanks again

GOOD NEWS !

I found a Bikini today WOOOOOT !!!

Fits me lovely and the boobies feel safe in it

.. Still couldn't find a bra in my size so over to chelmsford shopping tomorrow !

I got another 2 today from debenhams :

And another one similar with brown instead of the blue

Really nice and a size 12 top fitted my boobies !

Still no luck on the bra though .. my size has been confirmed as a 30E and the only 30s they had in debenhams were A/B cups :/

Will have to order online I think which I *hate* doing :/

2 years ago I was a 32B and now look at em :eek:

Only going to wear the 1 bikini but I had to get some more for our July hols anyway so thought I'd get them all the same time hehe
