  • Where do you want to shop?

    Once you get to goal weight, or to a lower weight, where do you want to shop that you haven't been able to before (or for many years)? What store will be your reward purchase location? Where have you always dreamed of shopping?

    (I know all the men will be clamoring to answer this one...lol)

    I can't wait to shop at The Limited again--I haven't been there for a while, and once I get to goal weight I want to buy a suit from there...they have such sexy professional stuff....meow! I also want some jeans from Hollister--I did have a pair that fit me a couple years ago, and they were soooo comfy. But then, as we all know, I slowwwwwwly grew out of them... ( I also want to go to my favorite stores on a "shopping spree"--GAP, Old Navy, Urban Outfitters (might have to wait to go back to MI for that one), etc.

    What about you? Where do you want to shop?!?!??!

      Over here in the UK we have a gorgeous clothes shop called Karen Millen, which only goes up to a size 14, I think thats about size 10 usa, but her sizes run small! So I just want to be able to go in there and fit into everything!! I must admit I have a couple of her blouses, and I can button them up, so I'm getting there!!

      My hubby has said he'll buy me an outfit from there when I get to my goal weight!! hehe!!

        I love the Limited! There was a store I shopped at in Kuwait and Germany called Mango i think, that was a great one also. The main one I was looking forward to shopping at was Abercrombie and Fitch. Their stuff has always run so small.

          Oooh I love Abercrombie and Fitch stuff, albeit secretly. Openly, I tease the people who ONLY wear A&F stuff, but inside, I want to shop there. I used to own jeans from there, but I seriously wore the butt out of them. Holes appeared, right under the buttcheek area. Now I know I've got some junk, but please...it wasn't that bad. So hopefully my butt isn't as lethal now, or possibly they've reinforced their jeans. With steel.

            when I reach goal my Aunt is taking me shopping and buying me a new wardrobe (?sp)......I can't wait!

            But for now, my focus is to be able to
            1) be able to shop and buy a pair of jeans in Norway. Its a b*tch living in a country that does not have clothes as large as I am!
            2) when I am ready I am escaping to Newcastle and spending the week alone and shopping for me me me at their Metro and then ASDA!

              I find A&F clothes are way too preppy as a whole, but i like to piece things together. One of my favorite stores is Charlotte Russe. I do get my work pants at Express. I have a very short inseam and their pants are in lengths.

                  I'm going to go shopping for a pair of Joe's Jeans when I get back in January. I'm not sure if I can get into them or not, but I'll try. I also look forward to shopping at Ann Taylor Loft.

                    I was at A&F and Hollister 2 weeks ago here with my stepdaughter, i refuse to pay that kind of money for jeans and sweats...$100+ for a hooded sweatshirt? nope..sorry..they're not getting that from me .

                    I just got back from Buffalo, I love Marshall's and TJ maxx...I love getting a bargain! I do find US sizes to be a bit smaller than ours...

                        I just want to be able to walk into any shop and purchase something off of the rack.

                          Mmm Victoria's secret...yeah I'll add that to the list...I can wear that stuff, but I want to look HOT in it! One of those merrywidows...or a bustier...I'm into that constrictive, somewhat covered look I guess...oh and it doesn't hurt that my belly is jelly.
