Hello World Fitters! Another week have pass by. It’s now Friday time for my latest post. This post I wanted to focus on finding the right clothes to compliment your body.
I know I’ve been telling you about my weight loss journey on my weekly shapely. However this blog is a bit different. How so you may ask? This article is different because I wont be giving you snippets of my weight loss. Instead I will be talking about dressing your weight.
Before when I was thin I had no problem finding clothes to fit me. As you guys know before I use to be a size eight. Now I’m a size eight, nine, ten and eleven. What? I know up and down. Finding clothes havent been easy. It’s obvious the fashion designers don’t make clothes to fit every body type.
I’m getting prepared to write a letter to all the designers to complain about not being able to find my size. Laugh out Loud, but seriously it is no piece of cake finding the right clothes especially when you’re morbidly obese. One major problem is finding clothes that looks sexy and body appropriate.
Being fat can be sexy. Curvy and voluptuous people want some love too. We date and want to marry some day. Why cant our clothes reflect that too? That is a question I definitely want the answer to. My best answer to that question is many people don’t see fat as being sexy. They see it as something that should be covered. Hance that is exactly what the clothes are doing. I’m not big and I find it difficult to find clothes even after losing some weight. I can only imagine how hard it is for a morbidly obese women and men to find the right clothes.
World Fitters I did some research it seems the average size to have decent clothes is about 24-26, 24-28, and 1XL- 3XL. What do you do if your bigger then that? The answer is have your clohtes made for you. Which is rather on the expensive side.
Another alternative is to go on a clothes hunt. Where you go to varies stores mixing and matching. For instance I did that on my last shopping run. I got a small eleven and a small ten pants which is equivalent to a size 10 and a size 8 pants. The different sizes confused me a bit. I remember when i got the exact same pants to have one fit me and one don’t. Imagine my frustration World Fitters. Clothes hunting is not fun for me but rather a must.
Speaking of clothes hunting I would like to recommend two websites to help you dress to your perfection.
Dress Up, Your Website
Feel free to add your own favorite stores!
The most important thing is that X person feels happy in their body, regardless of shape, color, form or any other defining criteria.
We are all guilty of subconsciously favoring ‘more attractive’ people. To that extent I do feel the way you dress yourself helps reduce judgement from others.
However as a guy I feel so much more attraction towards a girl who just rocks a smile and who exodes happiness, regardless of the features mentioned above.
Great post in any case!

Hello Santiago!
Thank you so much I’m glad you liked my post. I completely agree I feel it is extremely important that a person is happy in the body they are born with no matter what! Because if your not comfortable with your body no amount of clothes will help you.
Yes humans are attracted to whatever catches the eye. Man more so are guilty of that. Yeah that is a good reason to be somewhat mindful of the clothes you wear. However whatever clothing you wear people still judge you. I’m glad you are a simple man that it just takes a smile to catch your eye. Thank you for letting us know from a males perspective.
Cheers,
Francesca
