    I found pants I loved on clearance, one size smaller than I've been in. I can get them on, they look decent, just can't zip them yet!

    People always say not to buy pants planning to be able to fit into them, but doing so has actually worked well for me -- great way to realize that the lbs lost are actually making a difference, since I see it in what I can wear before I do in the mirror.

    That works the same when your pants are getting too big. I put a navy pair on this morning, and thought to myself, I don't ever want to wear these again! And the dark red jacket I paired it with? Also too big. Time to go Goodwill shopping for a cheap replacement!

    I love GW. One person's junk is another person's treasure. I purchase 90% of my clothing from there.
