    I think it's completely reasonable. I have a fave pair of jeans and the thought of getting rid of them or giving them away once they are WAY to big is not only sad but kinda terrifys me. In the back of my head I always think " I should just keep them , what if I gain it all back again" Well No More , donate them to salvation army or give to a friend/family ect.. And go find your perfect comfy NEW Capris

    After I had my son I kept losing pounds fast so I bought cheaper clothes I would not care to throw. Like target clearence. Then throw them so you never wear them again or I should say donate them....

    Hmmmm, I have noticed that whenever I have lost weight, and found another pound off the scale, at first I am ecstatic.......... and then I get a little depressed........ I have no idea why. Maybe it's like coming off of a concert, when I am really elated and then the let-down syndrome strikes.....

    Maybe that is more of what you're experiencing, than the fact that you (get/have) to buy new capris...
