I bought this 2X t-shirt years ago. I weighed over 400 pounds at the time but I bought it in the hopes that someday I would fit in it.
It has sat in my drawer year after year.
Once I got into recovery I started trying it on every few months. Too tight every time but slowly I started to see that someday it would fit.
Today I decided to try it again because it had been a few months. It slipped on easy and fits perfectly. I cried for a little bit and then decided to take this picture. It may seem like a silly little t-shirt but it means the world to me.
Never give up. Never stop trying on the shirt because one day it will fit.
Pt. 2 - UPDATE
Surely you have better things to do with your time than to watch me try on shirts.
But I thought it was important that I share this with you.
I messed up. The shirt I tried on yesterday was not the shirt I thought it was. After getting so many comments saying the shirt actually looked too big, I double-checked. It was a 3X and not the 2X I was thinking of.
So today I tried on the 2X.
And it fits even better than the other one. :)
The point remains the same - never stop trying on the shirt.
P.S. Proof that I bought this shirt years ago is that it is a St. Louis Rams T-shirt! lol
