    Donate to charity - I'm not going back.

    I have kept one pair of jeans though, just in case I start to forget what it was like.

    Thanks everyone! I think we are all going to go through our clothes this weekend. I'll make a box of stuff that is clearly too large(most likely consisting of those awkward "oh I had a baby a while ago.... but I can't bear to wear maternity pants any longer" clothes) then send it on its merry way.

    Donate and as soon as they are too baggy to look right I give them away... almost everything I had is gone now and I have replaced it with about 1/3 of things because these too will be gone in a couple months.... If you keep them you are setting yourself up to grow back into them or at least in my opinion and I vote no on that one!

    I either sell or donate. I keep one pair of jeans though to remind myself of where I came from.

    Now, I have a closet full of clothes that actually fit. Which is a big deal for me, as I used to have size 14 down to size 4 . I donated everything that didn't fit anymore :-)
  • This is gunna make me sound HORRIBLE, but it's the truth. :indifferent:

    I do NOT get along with my little sister (she's 23, I'm 29), literally, not at all. :grumble:

    She's around a size 22/24. I'm rocking a 14/16 (or even a loose 10/12 at some stores!). :drinker:

    Anyways, I boxed up all my larger-er-er sized clothing and mailed it to her....from my mothers address, so she'd think my mother went shopping at the consignment shop for her. :indifferent:

    I donate them almost immediately once I've shrunk out of them. I don't want to see them anymore, and I don't ever want to fit in them again :)

    I donate them, and then turn around and buy new stuff at the same place. Everyone wins :)

    I am definitely getting rid of all of my "fat" clothes. I don't need any reminders. That's what pictures are for. I am giving some of the clothes away (the really cute pieces that deserve a good home), donating some to The Salvation Army and/or Goodwill, and I'm taking some of the pieces to a consignment shop (Why not get a buck or too?).

    I donate to charity or sell on Facebook. Getting a few extra $$$ to buy new stuff in the right size. If I go up again, the clothes are usually out of style. I have some skinny clothes that I can fit in, but are not in style so I do not want to wear them.

    For those that are keeping some 'fat clothes' for when they get pregnant... Don't you want some cute tops that fit in the shoulders and arms and don't look like your significant other's cast offs. Nothing uglier than a pregnant lady schlepping around in big sweats or too big shirts that don't fit her shoulders and arms. Looks dumpy and white-trashy!
