Size 12

Good news guys and gals! I went shopping for a pair of shorts and officially introduced myself to a new size!  A new size, that is wonderful!  A smaller size, that is fantastic! Buying shorts, that is unheard of!!!

Thinking back, I CANNOT remember buying shorts. In the last 10 years i have HAD shorts but i don't recall ever getting up the motivation to actually BUY shorts.

Buying (and really wearing, for that matter) has always been a very tender issue for me.  I dont know where this insecurity comes from.  Skirts- fine. Dresses- fine. Pedal pushers- no problem.  But shorts-  I always seem to feel like I am showing too much to the world.

So the success in this story. I confidently walked into Target, went to the shorts, found a fitted pair (elastic, i am sorry, but your not allowed in my life anymore), size 12, tried it on in the fitting room, perfect fit. Proud and happy! Confident! Sexy! In shorts!

Mid week 3- i am very pleased on how my challenge is going!

Week 4-  tentative to say the least.  Traveling for business and pleasure.  I'll keep you updated!
