    Yes it can be expensive on the front end but all the medical savings you will make when you don't contract diabetes, high blood pressure, cancer, heart disease, strokes and so forth will more than make up for it.

    This is not very long term thinking. By losing weight you will live longer and over the course of your life actually have more health costs than if you just overate now and died of a heart attack

    All my shorts and jeans are baggy now. So, I just pretend I'm a 17 year old inner city youth and let em hang down.

    You could just quit wearing underwear until you lose all the weight you want to.

    My worst NSV ever was my wedding ring almost falling down the sink because it was two sizes too big all of a sudden! It was a close call!!

    my wedding ring DID fall off, and i lost it, never to be seen again :sad:

    I say go consignment/thrift store shopping. I got pretty much a whole new wardrobe for around $100 bucks at Platos closet. They have shoes and purses as well. And I still have a ways to go for my goal weight. You don't have to spend a ton to buy a few awesome pieces here and there. :)

    But not for undies of course. lol

    I just got two pairs of nice work/suit pants tailored...much cheaper than buying two new pairs.

    Just get some white cotton ones that are a little snug and they should last a while. I'd personally suggest the second hand shops for pants. I've never been able to find shirts at those places but I have like six pairs of pants now that I may have $10 in. I refuse to buy anything new (other than socks and undies) until I reach goal. I say that now but I may end up having to buy some shirts before long. Literally 80% of my clothes look sloppy if I try to wear them.

    Are you kidding me? The worst NSV might be needing to buy a bra in the kiddie section of Walmart.. Not under ware being too big... That sounds like a dream come true...

    :sad: That's going to be me. Poor little things are shring away. Wish I couls say the same for my butt!:tongue:

    Oh NO!!! I'm so sorry!! I put my old wedding ring on a chain and the new one is about to join it hanging around my neck.

    To the OP: Hit the Goodwill if you want to save some cash. My husband and I are getting all our clothes there now. It's like we're renting them... We buy them, then we take them back and get more when they're too big. :happy:

    All successful weight loss folks end up commando in the long run.
    I was commando before any weight loss. Maybe I'm just an over achiever...

    me too LOL

    About a month before before I began my weight loss I had to buy new underware, Now they are all literally falling off! It's the worst NSV ever! That and I have only 3 pairs of pants that fit. I'm going clothes shopping today. Man, losing weight is expensive and I'm only half way to goal.

    Thank goodness for thrift shops, consignment stores, and sale racks! All great places for interim clothes that aren't so expensive to replace later in the weight-loss process :laugh:

    I am saving my "new / full retail price" clothing budget for closer to maintenance.

    I totally understand! And I was cheaping out by not buying work clothes, but this plan is no longer possible.

    Don't forget to get remeasured for bras! My size shifted there as well.

    The biggest winner in my weight loss journey is my sister. She gets my hand me downs!

    Speaking of Hand me Downs! Maybe we should start a clothes exchange group.
