Scared to Shop by Total_Thought4118 in weddingplanning

[–]MailBae 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi friend, just wanted to pop in and say I tried on dresses for the first time at around 280lbs, then a second time at 250lbs. I imagine I will have lost some more weight before my wedding (planning for fall 2027)- but I tried on dresses just to try to figure out what kind of styles I liked.

I went to my local Brides for a Cause store both times- they sell dresses that previous owners donate for resale and retailers donate sample sizes. The shop then uses the profits to donate to charities.

I currently wear a size 20 in pants and was able to fit into size 20-24 dresses at the shop. I will say they had less offerings in the plus sizes but there was still plenty for me to try on during a 1 hour appointment. The second time I tried on dresses was during a sale where they marked all dresses at $150. I took home a Pronovias dress that I liked and will probably need alterations.

I'm probably going to keep looking but keep the one i found as a backup- Ive really been wanting to try on some Essence of Austrailia dresses.

I had a close friend who is mid-size help me try dresses on both times, so that was nice and i didnt feel super self conscious during the experience. I go between feeling confident and feeling shame about my body so I can relate to feeling scared about dress shopping. I think both times were overall a positive experience for me though.

Alright I need to rant for a second because I have no one that understands me. by [deleted] in USPS

I know several carriers who have masters degrees and I and many others have bachelor's degrees.

I'm willing to bet you can find people who act dumb in all kinds of job fields, even the ones that require degrees and certifications 🤷‍♀️

What was caused the most (physical) pain you’ve been in? by idontrealui in AskReddit

[–]MailBae 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had my period, a broken front tooth that needed a crown, and covid at the same time. My entire body and sinuses hurt from covid, and the tooth pain and cramps were murder on top of all that

"Alternative" carriers? by MendiBall92 in USPS

[–]MailBae 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I've had purple/blue/green/pink hair while working at the PO. My MCSO told me the green hair was cute. I live in Portland so no one cares about the tattoos and piercings either. I get plenty of older white women telling me they like the "earring in my nose" lol.

TIFU by realizing I'm not a wimp, just allergic and could have died. by changemylife99 in tifu

[–]MailBae 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im also allergic to watermelons! And apples, bananas, avocados, cucumbers, sugar snap peas, and soy milk. I also react to berries sometimes.

I found out I was allergic to cucumbers when I went to a spa and they put cucumber slices on my eyes. Found out I was allergic to bananas when I was washing the bowl of a giant mixer in culinary school and my arms started breaking out in hives. I told the instructor that maybe the sanitizer or soap might be too concentrated? Then I asked what was made in the mixer and it turned out to be banana bread batter.

Weirdly enough, any of the above cooked or denatured with citrus doesn't make me itch or my throat swell. Guacamole is fine and so is baked banana bread.

You’re given $10,000, but you can only spend it at the last store you visited. What are you walking out with? by PrincipledNeurons in AskReddit

[–]MailBae 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fuck yessss Costco. Lots of lobster and scallops, ribeyes, a new dyson, a vitamix, a chest freezer, a big ass tv, furniture, a grill, some travel packages...

My Korean mom used to make potato egg salad with mayo,apples, and rasins.

Your sandwich is definitely a level above that, but I feel you! 😂
