I would wear large over sized clothes all the time, not because that was my size, but because I had a flawed view of myself. I felt fat so I wore larger clothes because I thought I was.It did not help that people in my life would joke and call me fat, or if they weren't joking, they were just letting me know i wasn't skinny skinny anymore. But seriously I was thin. My real clothes size when these pictures were taken was size Small, and size 5 jeans. However when I went shopping I would buy a size 8 jeans and large t-shirts.

Flawed view of self
From June 2011
I found some pictures today. They are so disheartening, because I am seriously swimming in a T-shirt. The shirt is about size L, could be an XL, but I think it was a Large. That's the size shirts I am wearing now :( I appear really skinny but I was just about at my healthy weight at about 110 at the time.
