Title: anybody else???
Post by: kody2011 on April 23, 2009, 08:26:35 PM
aaaarrrrrrggggg.....i'm soooo tired of having to wear all these baggy shirts. i want to be able to go back to wearing my emo/goth cloths. but my binder doesn't bind enough too do that. and my gut is a bit too big to wear anything else but what i have. and yes, i've tried the losing weight, but i don't lose it very fast. it wouldn't be so bad if i could actually go shopping for better cloths, but i'm in a little bitty town and the next clothes place besides walmart is like 3 hours away!!!! so i'm stuck wearing plain colored green/blue/red t-shirts. does anybody else get tired of it? got any suggestions?????

How about trying to layer your clothes so you don't have to wear baggy ones?

Make a binder, make your clothes, paint on the clothes you do have, save up like $300 and drive the 3 hours and buy enough clothes for the next two years, yeah I don't know what else. Good luck.

Can't you order some clothes off the internet?

Yeah, I'm stuck a little bit like this.  I have so many shirts I like, but I have to wear a jacket over them or show off the boys.  It'll be better once I get a binder, but even then I doubt it will work well enough for really formfitting garments.

Yeah, my clothes have to be really loose too. I wouldn't wear super tight shirts even if I could, but I would at least like to be able to wear a shirt that looks like it fits me. All my shirts are so big, they make me look kinda fat.  :( Oh well. It's too hot to layer here as well, and binding's not an option either. I feel your pain.

Def look at the online thing. And hell, look into full length binders. Or.. make something to suck in and cover your abdomen area as well as chest. Or even look into a more aggressive binder for your chest. But, there are so many ways around it. Don't give up on that :p
