So what I have found is the worst part about losing weight, in my opinion, is the fact that I now have to buy new clothes. My g/f tells me "No, that's the best part!".

Don't get me wrong I love the fact that I am healthier and thinner but I hate that fact that I have to buy all new clothes. Lol if only they made clothes that would adjust to your new weight.

What do you guys think?

    yes this is not a horrible thing, but slightly inconvenient. i found that the classifieds for my town on facebook are a great way to find cheap clothes for my trip down. can't wait for the yard sales to start!

    That's the best part!!!! Going into shop dressing rooms and trying all the new smaller clothes and just admiring your thinner self in the mirror!!! Love it :)

    I go do that every time I've dropped 10lbs :)

    the worst part-- ALWAYS feeling hungry. iono, but if i don't eat once every 2-3 hrs, i get really grouchy. i also feel much colder, now that i'm skinnier.

    i lost 16% of my starting weight. that's like shaving off almost 1/5th of a person >__>

    Yeah I agree with this, can't afford to keep buying new clothes so I'm just left feeling frumpy in too baggy stuff! When I get to my goal weight I'm going to go on a shopping spree though!

    I wouldn't mind clothes shopping if I could actually afford it.

    Me too. Its the money side of it! The other thing is it takes soo long when you've got so much to loose. I'm barely half way there and been at it a year now! X

    Although it's an inconvenience and a cost, it is something I guess to look forward to. My work clothes are so baggy it's starting to look silly, haha.

    Absolutely horrible. I was watching that biggest loser thing because my mum had it on her tv the other day. They were taking about % of bodyweight lost from start to finish. I think the winner had done something like 40.64% of their total body weight. I managed to do about 44.76% of my bodyweight so I'm damn freezing ALL the time. I have to wear jumpers on normal days now, which is a stark change from wandering around in normal weather in a T-shirt like I'm used to doing!

    On topic though. I've spent an absolute fortune because of the above. Nothing fit at all, I didn't even think about the size of my boxers until I put them on one day and they fell straight down haha. I think I've gone through 4 wardrobe changes and that's an entire wardrobe too!

    Getting myself into smaller clothes is so inspirational ! I've worked hard so that I can buy clothes off the shelf, with smaller sizes I've more options and variety. During my weight loss I loved the pleasant surprises when I could fit into one size smaller than my last visit into the shop. The size of the clothes became an instant goal, lol.

    I am thinking I am not going to like going down in bra size! Well maybe a little... but the rest of the clothes should be fine if i can afford them! Also i am with you all who think being cold is the worse part! Not really looking forward to that.

    You'll just have to work your butt off to tighten everything up won't you! :p

    As for the losing weight to get more variety.. it's GREAT until you go too far. Balls. I was an XXL in most clothes at one stage and there weren't many options. The lower I went the more options there were, until I hit a medium and I had a lot of choice! Then I went too far and went down to small and now I'm struggling to find decent jeans/clothes that fit! FAAAAIL. Packing on muscle now so I can get back to a medium lol :p
