I've worn size large tops for years. However shopping has become more difficult. I now have to try everything on in the store or spend gas returning to the store to exchange large tops for a smaller size. Am I a "medium" now? Not in my old clothes. And you are right - not at the cheaper stores.... but at the stores that want you to spend more money because your emotions respond to wearing a smaller size. Another sad but true part of your article. I look around and think I'm not too bad for my age even though my weight has increased along with the general population. Sigh. You do make me think about making positive changes. This article is so right! I’ve worn size large tops for years. However shopping has become more difficult.
