Falling off clothes!

I'm only about 10pounds out from my goal, and my clothes don't fit - which is AWESOME, don't get me wrong, but also so annoying. Eventually wearing leggings all the time is just lame. I don't wanna buy new clothes then not be able to wear them in a couple of weeks so I'm trying to hold out until I'm at my target but what to do in the meantime?

So question - what do you guys wear when you've lost so much weight that clothes are falling off you, but you can't afford a new wardrobe?????

    you could check out a thrift store and buy some cheap stuff to hold you over for 10 pounds...then it wont be such a big deal to get rid of them when you hit your goal.

    Go to some of the consignment shops/ thrift stores like Goodwill. You can get cheap temporary clothing and the small amount of money you spend goes to a good cause. If you donate your bigger clothing you can get a tax write off.

    I have had the same dilemma and have come to love second-hand clothes shops until I hit my goal weight. if There is one around you I would recommend going. Just yesterday I got 5 pairs of pants for $13. I hope this helps you out.

    eBay, to sell my decent stuff and buy new, and alterations with my sewing machine :)

    You can use a website called Big Wardrobe (htttp://www.bigwardrobe.com) to swap clothes, but I don't know how well this works in countries outside of the UK, or if there are any alternatives for other countries. :)
