    I've literally kept the bare minimum that I need at the moment until I'm ready to fit into my smaller clothes size (I do fit into the smaller size, but not comfortably yet, I should do in a week or two max).
    The rest has gone to charity already. So should I gain weight again, I'm in trouble! :laugh: Great incentive anyway.

    Before I started this weight loss, I actually never thought about the money I'm going to have to spend on a new wardrobe, workwear, casual wear, underwear... Literally everything is too big now, bar my socks and shoes. Great excuse to go shopping of course, but I'm not exactly loaded with money, yikes!

    history. for one, i'm ocd and don't like clutter and secondly, it gives me motivation to stay in my "skinny" clothes since i don't have the money for a new wardrobe.

    I really got serious 1 year ago, and every 3 months I clean out another section of my closet!

    The last pair I got rid of, when I hit a normal BMI, were the forbidden "stretchy pants" !!!

    I've given away most of mine. I have a few nice skirts and tops that I plan to sell, but I can't find a consignment place around here that sells plus sizes and I'm to lazy to do ebay or craigslisit. At some point I'll finally just donate them, I'm sure. I have a few "work" shirt I've hung on to and a few other things. The reason I keep these is because I hope to get pregnant soon and if I get a job where I need dress shirts or something like that I can wear them. I also occasionally where them when my few shirts or pants that I can fit into now are in the wash, I'm cheap and won't buy more then 2 pairs of jeans and a couple shirts until I hit goal.

    I've read you want to get rid of them, you'll think twice if you start gaining if you have to buy new clothes.

    I'm keeping them for when I decide to have kids so I don't have to buy maternity clothes.

    I did the opposite. I have kept all of my "skinny" clothes. I boxed up all of my cute tops, board shorts I used when I surfed everyday, my "skinny" size 8 jeans, even my cutesy-uber-expensive bras from Victoria's Secret. At $40.00 a bra, those dang things should be bronzed!!!

    I told myself that one day I will wear these clothes again. Slowwwwwwly am I seeing results and have dropped bra sizes, but I am not letting myself buy new clothes until I am down at least one full size. As G*d as my witness, I shall wear those "skinny" clothes again!!

    *shakes fist at sky* :bigsmile:
