Does going clothes shopping make you feel bad about yourself?

Question

Whenever I go clothes shopping I leave disappointed and feeling pretty awful about my body. Does anyone else feel this way?

Answer

My boobs are personal flotation devices. So it's hard to find shirts that make these cannon balls look good and I almost always have cleavage no matter what I wear. Stupid boobs 😒

Answer

I feel guilty. I feel like the money im spending on myself can be spent on my kids.

Answer

I hate shopping for jeans! I can never find a pair that fit my wide hips and not sag on the rest of me.

Answer

I can never find jeans. They are made for women with curves that I am sorely lacking.

Answer

Sometimes. It's just like any day though... One day I can feel great and sexy as hell other days I just want to crawl in a hole lol. I had lost a lot of weight one time and even then you'd think I would have a hay day shopping and feel wonderful about being down 5 sizes but I still had moments when I felt like I didn't look well and others where I looked damn good lol its a constant up and down

Answer

Yes massively.  I'm 5-6 stones over weight and I look forward to clothes shopping until I get into the changing room and as soon as I see myself naked in the mirror I get very upset and it totally puts me off shopping.

Answer

I gained a LOT of weight this year, so yep, my self esteem plummets when buying clothes. But just more motivation i guess!

Answer

I dread it. Clothes sizes keep going up and my small size doesn't really exist anymore. I know everything will just be too big. Then, I still have to deal with my friends and family saying how "lucky" I am. They think I can find clothes easily and don't believe me. They don't know the struggle of being small, assume there isn't one, and refuse to listen. Instead, they just complain about their weight and refuse to work on it.

Answer

I love going shopping but I'm so short and pants are the hardest to find :( I usually stick with leggings, skirts and shorts.

Answer

I have a big fat butt so finding pants is hard.. But miss me jeans seem to stretch around it 😂 so as long as I stick to them & Costco I seem to do okay. Other than that I   don't have trouble finding stuff that fits me because I'm not plus size so I have lots of store options. Pants are my only problem. Dress pants are near impossible to find.
