I've been at this a while now, and although there's been little weight/fat percentage change I have noticed everything's a little more 'smooth'...HOWEVER I am going out this weekend and want to look good, yet having tried on everything I own I feel crap in it all :( what's the point in all the effort if in the end you feel worse than you used to?!even my old faithful dresses look frumpy and gross!waaaa I just need a moan!!!!!!

    Hahaha thanks for the varied responses guys! But think I explained myself wrong... surely you must have those days where everything just looks PANTS, and no matter what anyone says to you, your arms/legs/stomach all just look like you're at a fairground mirror?! I wish there were magic clothes for these days!!!

    I usually wear black pants (slimming colors!) and a flowy top. That way I can still look publicly presentable without being self conscious.

    I totally get what you're saying. I had this problem earlier this week. I normally always wear a sheath dress or pencil skirt to work, and on Tuesday, I was going to wear a white pencil skirt, but I looked fat in it. Yesterday, I looked awesome in it. Some guy who walked into the building behind me asked me if I work out. You know I do, honey.

    If I'm feeling fatter than normal, I will just wear a fuller skirt and a belt that defines my waist.

    I'm not sure men understand those days (my husband certainly does not). I do, but don't have much to offer. I've wondered why I don't own a moo moo for such days.

    I like to wear scarves on those kind of days. In terms of practicality, a scarf can hide the torso area that most females are self conscious about. Aesthetically, a scarf can look very fashionable if paired off correctly. And on a psychological level, having something wrap itself around you is nice. : )...

    Have you got any "secret support" skirts/dresses? They had smome nice Gok wan ones in (of all places) Sainsbury's - but I was between sizes so one looked HUGE and one made me look like a sausage. :ohwell:

    I usually go for something which is wider in the skirt, maybe a bit empure-line (but not too maternity!) and as others have said a nice scarf or some statement jewellery keeps people looking at your (slimmer) face.

    When Im having a day where I feel everything makes me look fat I will wear an almost knee length slightly flowy dress with an empire waist. With either a belt or ribbon tied under my chest. That way it hides the tummy pouch Im freaking out over and also makes my legs look longer. I have quite a few dresses like this naturally lol.

    I'm old fashioned and wear pantyhose with all work dresses or skirts.

    If I'm feeling fat, I simply pull out a pair of control top hose, and I'm usually good to go.

    Well, first I wear workout clothes. Capris, a tank, running shoes. I pound out some miles. Endorphins always raise my mood and make me feel better.

    Then, I wear something comfortable and cute. Killer heels and some awesome jewelry and I'm ready to go.

    I've got a pair of skinny jeans that are just baggy enough and I've got this tank top that I've had sine the very beginning of my weight loss. I wear those things. =p I have those days A LOT.. I'm still mentally stuck at 214 lbs instead of 169 =/

    Skinny jeans do seem to do a lot for a lot of girls! Not super tight.. just the style, and I agree with a flowy!
