It is almost May and prom season is upon us. I remember the shopping for dresses when I was younger. I dragged my mom to every dress shop in our city and then I think I ended up getting a dress I saw at the first store we went to; isn't this what 17 year old girls always do? Prom season is an exciting and stressful time for young girls. Finding a date, arranging a limo, ordering corsages, and all the other little details that go into planning a prom.

Growing up as an over weight teen, I remember very well that I had a very hard time finding clothes which I liked which also fit me! I am sure this will sound very familiar to many plus size women all over the world.
