    I have three goal dresses in UK size 12 hanging up outside my wardrobe and an optimistic plan to fit into at least one of them for a friend's birthday at the end of January. Technically they do fit, but it'd be nice to be able to breathe at the same time ;)

    I have a picture of a model in a fabulous outfit which I would love to wear downloaded on my pc at work. I click on it when I am dying for a biscuit!

    I fell in love with a dress from the Prabal Gurung line for Target (pictured below) when it came out a while ago. When I went to buy it, they only had one dress left, a size 10. At that point I was a size 20/22 but I swore that I would one day wear that dress! I'm now a size 14/16. Not there yet, but I'm coming for it!

    This dress is so sweet. You WILL wear it, and if you can't find it, you'll find one just as cute somewhere.

    I fit into things I want to wear, but I think I'd like to look good in a string bikini bottom.

    I have inadvertently has "skinny" clothes in my closet which i ended up fitting into/had gotten too big for me, BUT i don't think buying goal clothes is a great idea, here's why...

    When you lose weight your body will change shape, (unless you've been that weight before and you know from experience) it's almost impossible to know how clothes will look on you after... so the item might "fit" but it might not look right/suit your body.

    Reward yourself with nice clothes that fit your body well.

    This is one of the reasons I worry about doing it... but then there are some styles that suit almost all shapes so are safe, and I'm one of the lucky people who gain all over and lose all over (lucky in that i carry my extra weight well, although unlucky that it takes longer for me to notice weight loss because its so gradual from everywhere!) so my proportions are unlikely to change!

    Such a cute dress :heart:

    I've still not bought anything as a goal outfit! I do have a pair of shorts which I had in a UK12 which were getting too big on me, so I bought the UK10 and they were tiny! I measured them against my size 12s and there were two clothing sizes between them and the shorts were in fact a UK8 in measurement! So I'd love to get into them, they are teeny though!
