As much as this pains me, I guess I'll have to grudgingly admit the fashion experts are right. I do look thinner in the non-jacket picture, but for now, I'm going with comfort. Maybe someday...

A Nice Compromise
I know all the fashion experts advise us to wear clothes that fit. They tell us it actually makes us look thinner than swimming around in oversized clothes. I'll never give up my baggies for every day comfort, but I've been trying to wear more flattering things for church and for dress-up times. It's very hard on me. A lifetime of self-doubt, and poor body image doesn't go away over night, so I decided to pair my new sweater with a jacket. Dave took these pictures of me just before church. As much as this pains me, I guess I'll have to grudgingly admit the fashion experts are right. I do look thinner in the non-jacket picture, but for now, I'm going with comfort. Maybe someday...
