    Keep a piece or two as a reminder of your progress, then donate the rest- someone else will really appreciate them! Any of the really raggedy ones you can cut up to use as rags around the house.

    I lost 52 pounds and I had to buy some new clothes. Should I get rid of the baggie clothes? I ask this because I'd like to know what others have done.
    I just took a load of baggy clothess over to Goodwill yesterday. Felt awesome.

    Donate! :)
    I feel terrible throwing out perfectly acceptable clothes that someone else could benefit from! I do like to keep 1 or 2 pairs of jeans in my wardrobe so I can remind myself how well I've done. Definitely a good mood booster!

    If it's in really good condition, I donate it, but if it's scuffed/worn/stained (A lot of my old work jeans have sharpie stains where my inventory pens leaked in my pockets) I repurpose. I have several 'denim jeans' book bags, a few stuffed-sweater kitty beds, etc. There are lots of great fun ideas for repurposing on Pinterest, especially if you don't mind a little sewing/knot tying. :)

    I donated my old fat clothes. I lost over 200 pounds and had to get an entirely new wardrobe. Even some of my old shoes didn't fit. I just kept my old belt as a reminder. It doesn't take up much space. I put it on a few times a year to help me stay motivated.
