Laundry NSV

We've had a splendid summer out here on the Left Coast (Vancouver Island, BC) and I've been taking advantage of the free solar clothes dryer in the backyard (clothesline). I was sitting out on the sundeck a few weeks ago and idly looking at the items hanging on the line. I had shorts, t-shirts, PJs and socks hanging up. As I stared at the clothes, I realized: all the clothes were too big. Only the socks still fit properly.

I was amused. And pleased. I've dropped 3 sizes since Mar 2013. Although feet apparently change less than other body parts during weight loss. :laugh:

    Congratulations on your progress so far! (If you give the ill-fitting clothes away, you'll have less laundry to do. Haha.)

    Good point on giving away the clothes....I'll wait until summer is over as I don't want to buy new summer stuff right now. Who knows what will fit by NEXT year?

    I have dropped 2 sizes and it feels great! I am going on vacation and much of my summer stuff is way too big so I bought 1 pair of pants and went shopping in a box I had of clothes that had gotten tight 2 summers ago. Surprise, they all fit and are even bit big too! Nothing like this feeling to keep you motivated....:flowerforyou: Like you I don't intend on buying anything new because I am not even going to try to guess what size I will be by next summer, hopefully much smaller!!!! enjoy your victory...:happy:
