    I donate them, sell them or give them to friends and relatives who want them. I have way too many clothes anyway. I actually do keep one pair of jeans that are a little roomy for when I'm on my period, as I bloat a lot and don't really want to have to wriggle into my skinniest jeans during that time of the month.

    If you paid a ton for something and LOVE it, get it altered. Other than that, get rid of it. Save nothing "just in case" because then there will be a "just in case"...You've worked too hard to revert back to that size 20!

    You could sell them on E-Bay. Larger ladies usually have trouble finding nice good quality items. Then, with the money you make, you can buy size 14 clothes!! My Mum did this when she gave up smoking. The money that she would have spent on ciggies, she put in a jar and then treat herself to something nice.

    my larger jeans went to my sis while she is pregnant. and the rest went to charity. someone else can enjoy them while they are still in good condition.

    Things like dress jackets don't go out of style...have you tried getting them altered to fit you now?

    Gather all the ones together that don't fit.... pick out your very favorite 5 pieces. Consign the rest and take the money you make to alter the top 5!

    OMG... Thanks so much for this... I can do this!!! Great idea!

    Thanks so much for everyones input ~ I plan on going thru my closet this weekend and getting them boxed up 1-box) take to my sister who wants to "check them out" before I do anything with 2-box) Nice jackets/shirts that I DON'T want to get rid of but can have altered 3-box) Not my sister's taste so gonna consign them - and what they don't want I will give to the local Good Will... this way everyone wins - :laugh:

    Friends and Goodwill. I am trying to get rid of everything - because I am not going back to those sizes. :-)
