How not to be self-conscious about one’s size?

December 5, 2005

You know you are getting round when you take an L-sized garment off the rack and the sales assistant oh-so-helpfully says, “We have it in XL too.”

However, this is nothing like an experience I once had in a lingerie shop, where the sales assistant patted my tummy and brazenly told me, “We have girdles here.” Technically, I could have sued her for assault because in legal terms, even a touch - if unwanted and uninvited - is considered an assault.

  1. We wear “uniforms” at work. The uniform consists of a t-shirt and, during winter months, an optional sweatshirt. My boss keeps trying to order shirts for me that are too big. I know I still have some weight to lose, but that XL shirt really is too big. :(
