Goodbye Fat Clothes!

StuAblett

Today we were doing some spring cleaning, we live in Tokyo Japan, we are blessed with a nice new decent sized place to live, but it is still small and cramped compared to Canada, where I'm from. Part of my spring cleaning was to put away all my winter clothes and dig out my summer clothes. While putting away my winter clothes, I tossed out anything that has become too large for me, I've lost 50lbs, so there was quite the stack. Then when I was getting out my summer stuff, I did the same thing, I tossed all my Fat summer clothes. In the end it was one VERY FAT bag of clothes, kind of fitting that :bigsmile:

My wife was a little concerned that I was getting rid of these clothes, as she has seen me yoyo on other diets, but I keep reminding her (and myself) that this is not a diet, it is a fundamental change in my lifestyle.

I'm wearing t-shirts and such that I've not been able to wear for 3 or 4 years, I'm very happy about it, I've still got 50lbs to lose and a lot of hard work ahead of me, but I'm making it day by day.

Thanks to all my friends on MFP, you really do inspire me!

Cheers!

Fantastic job on the weight loss and I agree I am not on a diet, but a healthy life style. I constantly remind my hubby and myself this is not temporary but permanent. Keep up the phenomenal work on being healthy

That is absolutely wonderful. . . And you are totally right in getting rid of all those clothes, not giving yourself a reason to get back in them!

That is awesome! You have to put the past behind you to move forward into the future. I think if you held on to the clothes you were expecting to fail. So KUDOS!!!
