I wear a lot of dresses to work because I can't fit into my work pants anymore. I am hoping that I will drop enough weight to fit back into them again before it gets really cold. I refuse to buy new pants, I am determined to fit into my old ones :) If I can't then it looks like it's going to be a skirt / leggings / and boots kinda winter attire for me :)

    Once I hit my goal I will be rewarding myself with new clothes. :glasses:

    I wear long sleeved shirts under my scrubs at work to somewhat mask my fat arms. It's great in the winter but in the summer, hotter than Hades. :embarassed:

    I buy all my clothes two sizes to big and have for years but I'm tired of doing that

    I can relate to this. For years I technically wore a 2X but would buy 3X everything. The only time it caused a big problem was when I started losing weight and everything looked horrible very quickly. Now looking at replacing my 1X with XL. But it's still weird for me, especially when I get something semi-fitted and feel like it's showing my "fat rolls" when actually it is more flattering, and not tight/snug at all...you just get used to wanting to camouflage your body in tent-like shirts/tops, I think. At least that was the case for me.

    Also relate to the one about long sleeve tops to hide arm fat. That is one of my worst areas - my upper arms are super flabby while my forearms are quite "skinny" especially by comparison...ugh! I love me some elbow-length and 3/4-length tops year round ;-)

    I had a brownie for breakfast. I don't feel guilty. It tasted so good!

    I bought tights. My pants are actually getting too big and starting to fall off but I want to wait a few more pounds before investing in a bunch of new pants.
