A Single Digit Tee

This morning my company sponsored a Wellness Day for Women. I was there bright and early (6 am) with my team, as we were overseeing the volunteers for the event.  Our volunteers are required to wear special t-shirts and I had called someone on my staff while on the road earlier this week to pull one for me.  I asked for an XL.  When I took the shirt home yesterday, I never looked at the size.  This morning I noticed it was a L.  I couldn't believe it.  "This will never fit," I thought.  Most L's run small and I can't remember the last time I wore a L t-shirt.  I didn't know what to do.  So I tried it on, hoping it wouldn't be too tight.  Prepared to stretch it out as much as I could!  I was amazed when it fit.  Fit loose, too.  I actually wore a turtleneck under it for the event. 

Since I started the diet, I really haven't replaced my t-shirts or work out pants.  And, my pants have all gotten WAY too big. I've been planning to go get some new ones.  And, I could also tell my t-shirts were all way too big.  But, I was still amazed to think a L would fit.  If you think about it, I've been a double digit/letter clothes girl all my adult life.  So, wearing a single digit tee makes me very happy.
