Vanity Sizing

Okay, so I at first thought it was an Old Navy fluke of vanity sizing, but Jen and I went "school shopping" last weekend so she could get some new fall shirts for work. We hit up the mall and I went into Filene's Basement to look for some deals.

I ended up getting a skirt (another skirt, what is UP with that?) and a pair of dress pants. I guess I really AM a size 12 these days.

That's just WEIRD. When I started taking Metformin in February '05, I wore men's 36s, and usually a women's 16 (sometimes an 18 depending on cut). No exercise, no dieting, SOME better food choices. It's a crazy drug.

I think I've finally stopped losing weight, though, which is good. I started getting concerned when I hit the 30lb mark. My weight at my last IUI was 152.

INSANITY

Filene's Basement is definitely a New England thing. I don't know how long it will last since Filene's was bought out by Macy's. But we'll see.

Have fun shopping!
