"Why is it that big people are penalised by clothes shops for being big. I went into Evans yesterday and saw a lovely skirt which cost £38! I just can't afford to buy a skirt that cost that much. Their prices are ridiculous.

I went into Matalan to the large sizes dept which I think is called Rogers and Rogers. Their prices were a little better but I was not happy to see tons of jeans and short tops! What about the cardigans and skirts! Big people like me, like to cover up. Most big people like me like to wear a cardi.

Why do designers presume that fat people don't like to be trendy, OR the fatter you are, the taller you get! I have tried on big sizes that drown me.

It seems that I will have to shop in a granny shop for skirts and cardis as I can't afford Evans and Marks and Sparks. OR I can lose the weight :erm

I have seen lots of clothes that i thought would suit you. But i think on the whole its you who think they all look horrible on you. I know! I have been shopping with you when we were in Skegness

I feel safer in long skirts and cardigans and they have to be black laugh

I hope to change that. I have decided that after losing 2 stones, I will invest in some new clothes which are bright and NOT BLACK! That is my goal. I want to start wearing trousers again so I need to lose 2 stone first.
