the world is hypocritical
general population: Omg plus-sized people are so lazy! If they just got off their fat asses and did stuff they wouldn't be so fat.
Stores: Well neener neener we won't sell plus-sized outdoor clothing or equipment so sucks to be plus-sized! Highest size we'll go is XL
Seriously. I am very upset right now. I had a hard enough time finding a bathing suit that I could use to start up swimming again and even then my boobs keep trying to bust out while I swimming and I have to keep stopping to fix it or flash the whole pool. I honestly thought that big bulky winter coats and snow pants would be easier to find. But apparently plus-sized people never venture outside in the snow (wtf) and so we don't need that stuff.
The plus-sized stores here don't sell it - no that would be too practical. and the 'normal' stores don't seem to think that a size 18/20 person should be doing this stuff.
Soooo I guess I have to cancel my ski-trip with my dad. And I'm really upset. I was really looking forward to it.
The real kicker is now I feel like the fattiest fatso on the planet even tho I really don't stuff my face with fast food everyday. I eat good healthy food and we eat out maybe once a week. And I go swimming twice a week as well as chase after lil kids all day every day for work. And yet despite everything I'm still a size 18/20... and I'm penalized because of that. I would love to lose the weight but I can never find the gear to fit me!
