Week 10: Discouraging moment: clothes shopping

Today after work (it was a half day), I decided it was time to go shopping for some clothes that will fit my transitional body better. I started with Old Navy, and they don’t go up to my size at all. Then, I went to a big & tall store, and smaller sizes didn’t fit. Probably related to different styles from the same brand. But, in all, I bought nothing and walked away feeling my less than successful.

Instead of going home on feeling sorry for myself, I decided to go workout instead. I parked my car at the Grange Audubon park and hopped on the Scioto Trail. I then walked from there all the way through and past downtown before turning around. On the way back, I got quite the thigh cramp, so I stopped at one of our favorite bars along the path. This was my longest walk yet at 4.25 miles and the view was great.

So, I don’t fit in clothes from a normal store yet. Oh well, it is coming!

Last week’s stats:
