......the fact that my shorts do not fit me :( They were already the largest I could get back in May I've obviously been over doing it on the food front.

I don't know where I'm gonna get some shorts at this late notice. The shops here in the UK certainly aren't selling anyway Brrrrr ;)

Do you know of any shops near WDW, for the fuller figure woman, where I could get some, otherwise if the weather is hot then I'm gonna be hotter.

Yes I know I could go on a diet but purleaze it's less than 3 weeks to go and I don't think I'm gonna be able to shift that much weight in that time and besides - I LIKE MY FOOD ;)

Any ideas folks?

Yours, in desperation
 
You could try Walmart, Sam. I've bought shorts at Walmart, if they can fit me, they can fit anyone.
 
Not to worry----I'm on the chuncky side.....my thought if I go on a diet now....no one would have anything to compare me to. This way you'll get a Dis-con II me....next year You'll see the Dis-conIII me. A lot of time went into reasoning this out----makes all the sense in the world to me.......

See you in Dec.......Which ever way I show up.

PS ---not sure what kind of shorts you like ( I prefer the ones with a little elastic on the side) but Levi Dockers and Lee's for women fit nicely. I beleive they each have a web site. Hope they have these in England.
 

Sam,

I have not missed many meals, as everyone can attest too :)

If you are looking to buy some shorts there are lots of outlet stores in the WDW area, where I am sure you would be able to purchase a lot at very reasonable prices.

I am sure there are several people who would love to go on a shopping spree with you.
 
Seems like a lot of us are in the same boat, so to speak. I have one advantage, all the stores here sell shorts all the time. Sam, if you want to PM me, maybe we can arrange something, I could find some and get them to your hotel (hold for arrival) or I could bring a couple of pair with me (tee hee, more room for me to bring stuff back) If wouldn't be a problem, I shop ALL the time.
 
I'm another "Was gonna go on a diet for DISCon but didn't"er!!!! No prob...but hopefully you can find some shorts cause probably like you - I HATE BEING IN WARM WEATHER AND WEARING PANTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ICK!!! If it's above 70, I'm probably gonna be in shorts!!!
 
I'm just gonna have to squeeze into my shorts! :teeth:

I'm sure you will be able to find some once you get to WDW. Can't wait to meet you - whatever you're wearing! :sunny:

I'm sorry Sam. I think that www.bigdog.com sells some women's clothing.

I just couldn't diet either...lol.

Ray :)

So they have these sizes s-xl but how do I know how big they are, otherwise those big dog womens chambray shorts look cool and I'd sure like a pair - just not sure what size to order ;)
 
Hey guess what they have a store at PRemium Outlets yeeha that's where Emma and I are shopping on our first morning so I feel very relieved. Thank god for Big Dogs and thank god for Ray - if I hadn't said it before I'll say it again DISCon wouldn't be the same without you Ray :):)

Marsha I'll still PM you because you can never have too many shorts - and now I don't need to go on a diet.....well not for short reasons anyway...............I mean my health could use it............but.................oh I'm rambling again ;)

Chris, I'm LOL-ing here because if it's in the low 70's, you'll see me with long pants and a sweatshirt on. I've been living in the tropics for so long that when it gets below 75, I start shivering.
:p :p :p

Sam......JC Penny is having a sale on shorts. You can order them online and have them delivered to your hotel.

it it gets over 60 I 'm in shorts, that's a heatwave for me!!!
I am lucky I fit into my summer clothes, I have lost some weight this year so they fit better than they did before , I would like to loose a bit more but it's not a real concern with me , I'm a tall person.
It's going to be fun to be flying out in winter clothes and arrive to Florida with them, I feel like I strip on my flight down when I go to the bathroom and I start changing clothes!
 
dieting is an evil word - yes I very much need to go on one and stick to it myself.

However I have a tendency to get hot - family thing - so that even shorts don't help - I also take some skirts that are light - but living in England you probably don't have them.

I will definitely make a stop at Walmart if you want a ride.

Oh I am trying - I have Slim Fast for breakfast.
 
Sam, dear! You can have all of my shorts!! I have "ungrown" out of them and they are all too big, now! I started dieting in January and even though I've only managed to lose 34 lbs., I must have toned up big time because I am doing the baggy grunge look with a lot of my clothes!! Luckily, I didn't get rid of all the smaller stuff I used to wear and it's almost like getting a new wardrobe! Whooo-Hooo, I'm gonna say good-by to the Plus Size department any day now!!!

See you in just 3 weeks!!!

I just wanted to say that I can't wait to meet you, Sam, and it sure doesn't matter to me what size you are! :)
 
to read the people in cold climates will be wearing shorts if its 70 or above and those of us in warmer areas will be in pants. I won't be breaking out my shorts unless it breaks 80. Is the weather just like in Jan where it can be 60-90 ??? I have been there for both. This is a packing delima. I was hoping it would be cooler like 70-75. It's 71 in here right now( inside) and I'm reaching for a sweater. LOL

Sam, I'm in the same sinking ship as you. :( ;) And I just ordered some shorts from LandsEnd.com I have't received them yet, so I don't know if they are any good, but it's worth a try. ;) You can use my shipping addy if you want, and I can bring them with me to WDW. :) Just let me know. :)
