Well the weather is definitely heating up around here, and so getting dressed this morning I chose to wear a tank top- even though I'm not completely happy with the way my arms look in it! One of the other teachers reassured me that it didn't look bad at all. Which made me feel better!
One of the other reasons I opted to go ahead and just wear it is that perhaps being in public in it will MAKE me want to get back in control of exercising. Make sense?
Anyway....I know a week or so ago there was a 'clothing' post and I didn't respond because our options here are very limited!! I'm now searching for clothing catalogs- two that I know of are Newport News and Talbots. I'm looking for clothes that are cute (but wearable for a full busted woman, lol), and relatively cheap. I have

IG, that is just GREAT that it is warm enough to wear a tank top.
I think it's great that you are wearing a tank top! And I DO know what you mean about it motivating you. It's either you wear it now when you have a choice to see how it makes you feel or you wear it later because you HAVE to because it's too hot to wear anyting else! At that point it's not like you are going to drop 15 pounds overnight. That happened to me last year. I hybernated in my sweaters until the last possible moment then I was forced to turn out in tight fitting summer clothes that looked horrible. I vowed this year to start trying the stuff on ahead of time in an attempt to motivate me to do better.
I could recommend a few different clothing catelogs but I would need to know what your personal style is first. Urbanoutfitters.com and babyphat.com is pretty good if you like trendy stuff, gap.com and old navy.com is good for preppy casual, LL BEAN.com is a sporty and conservative, chico.com and spiegel.com sophisticated,... I guess in the virgin islands you don't get the regular type of clothing stores?
OK, maybe I won't tell Miranda about how warm it's been here.

Thanks ladies-- I had a whole post typed out before dinner and then =BOOM= computer crashes....argh! Anyways...
Miranda~ there's no need for sarcasm girl! But having seen your post from earlier I'll let you off easy ;-)
Sunny~ you know I hadn't thought about your point of not thinking about wearing tanks/whatever
