    I'm terrible and buy clothes for any excuse, love shopping! Weight loss was the best excuse ever, I have finished bagging all of my bigger clothes and distributed them off to friends and family to make room for the new. I always thought best to give away clothes that don't fit anymore so I can't put weight on again as I'll have nothing to wear!

    I managed to find some jeans in the wardrobe that I'd bought and never went near me before the diet and even these are too big for me, will really need to do some proper shopping rather than relying on belts to hold them up!!

    I don't like shopping much either, so it's a pain for me to shrink out of all my clothes... Especially because I really hate loose fitting tops :(

    Luckily, it's warming up now, just as I'm shrinking out of my previously tightest pants... I plan to stick with dresses with belts so they can work for a long time, and skirts through the summer and fall, and before next winter, I should be pretty close to my goal, so I can buy some tight jeans. Need to buy a couple of skirts, difficult to find something that can match with all my 'jeans and T-shirt' tops, but I'll just get 2, and that will have to do.

    I detest buying clothes. I bought two pairs of jeans five years ago, sometimes they are tight, sometimes they are loose but until they fall apart they will do. Luckily I'm either in scrubs or gardening clothes so I dont have to bother

    Think that's another family trait!! I've just worked out that the top I'm wearing to work today is over 12 year's old!! Still looks ok and has no holes in it :laugh:

    When my current don't fit.

    I don't go crazy or anything but let's be realistic...underware and bra have to fit, and who wants to run around in bigger clothes that make it appear that you haven't lost anything.

    I got rid of all my old ones and replaced them with 2 pair of jeans and a couple shirts, but did it on the cheap until I am in my final size.
