Guys - what's the going rate to have pants taken in? If it's too much I'm buying suspenders.

    buy new ones - when you lose weight - you lose all over - you have done so good so far - reward yourself with new jeans instead of food :)

    Because I don't have the knack for sewing, I've used a seamstress a few times, but unless it's an amazing and favourite piece of clothing, it is much more economical for me to buy "new" clothes" at the thrift store as I change shape.

    I bought four pairs of nice pants and a great shirt at a second-hand store the other day and spent under thirty dollars, which might get me two items altered. Depending on the alterations, one item may cost fifteen or twenty dollars) I've found.

    And okay, it's shallow perhaps, but when I gave away my size 12 jeans and bought sixes, I was happy to have the tag with the number, instead of smaller pants that still read "12". :)
