I gained 50lbs within a year back in 2007.. since that I put on 20 more on.. only lost those 20 again.. I've been diagnosed with PCOS and haven't been able to lose this weight. It has been frustrating to even buy clothing. I am pear shaped but I am also short (5'0") and my torso is nonexistant! I hate going shopping for clothes and end up being an emotional mess because pants never fit and if I go to Lane Brant, they fit my hips but are too baggy in the bum and legs. I am between at 12&14. If I do to other stores they are too tight at the crotch etc. and pull at the hips due to the size of them.
Everyone keeps asking if and when I am going dress shopping..
I don't know. I am dreading it. Wedding is June 2013. My parents go to FL (I live in Ontario, Canada.. on the other side of Detroit, MI) from Oct-April.. so I guess it will have to be soon. my Mother has always been very critical of my body (when I was a size 8 looking for prom dresses back in the 90's, I was told to get sleeves to cover my chubby arms etc.). I don't want this special moment to be ruined my emotional abuse or the experience of nothing fitting.
Am I the only one that feels this way?
