This shirt used to fit me well, it was pretty roomy and I could wear it to the office and feel professional.
A few months ago, I started to need a safety pin to stop it having a gap in the buttons at my chest. I felt kinda chubby in it, so I stopped wearing it.
I tried it on the other day, for the first time in ages. I'm a little shocked by how badly it fits me now, how much it clings to me belly and how i make the fabric stretch out around the buttons...
Then sitting down in it - I was worried that the buttons would burst if I didn't suck my belly in a little. They were straining to contain all my flab... Undoing them, when I eventually managed to, was such a relief - even if I did then just have to see my lower belly spilling out!
I'm retiring this shirt. I'm too fat for it. All part of the collateral damage of becoming overweight.
