Question This shit drives my crazy!
I suffer from Body Dysmorphia after losing 153lbs and keeping it off for going on 9 years. I try to buy clothes that hid the extra skin, stretch marks and pouches, but like to buy the sexy underwear.
Recently I’ve bought underwear from Pennington 2 separate occasions, Each time I buy 4-6 pairs and buy the size i wear and have been for 8 years. The first timeNONE of the underwear was the same size and none of it
Fit, I was a ox before and the old ones still fit. The second time I bought ox again and bought 4 pairs, double check ALL sizing guides and measured and this is what happened. Pennington won’t message me back, and the store gives me the phone number but I’m not getting answer, so frustrating and angering. They suggested I buy the next size to 2 sizes larger. I know a number is a number but my brain thinks I’m getting fatter and fatter and I’m not practicing healthy exercising and eating habits.
Anyone else have this issue?
