Over Weight, Don't Need Spectators.

If your over weight you know what I'm talking about when us big girls go shopping.
Trying to find that great looking outfit that is going to make you look a million bucks and make you look 10 kilos lighter.

Shopping can be a very daunting exercise when your larger than a size 16 or XL.
You search through every piece of clothing, choose what you think may look good and then you get the courage to try it on, then it happens. The sales girl comes to the door and yells out "give us a look, is it the right size"?
Your pulse starts racing, (I have known some women to throw back the dressing room curtain and look out, your standing there half naked for all the world to see).

Struggling to get the outfit over your hips or to get the zip done up. All you want her to do is disappear so you can struggle with your own feelings about how nothing ever fits properly. (So get lost)

You politely say "Thanks, but I'm fine."

Walking out of the fitting room and quietly slide out the shop door so no one notices you.
All the way home you tell yourself your going on a diet. Yer right, your that depressed that nothing fits so you grab macca's for the trip home.

Was the story of my life.
Sometimes I still feel like this, but not quite so much.
