    Those old pants, where you wearing them tight?? If so, now they are lose, that's why you can still fit them..... Keep up the good work...

    This made me laugh out loud :O) My boyfriend is always telling me how my jeans dont fit because I wear a belt with them. I tell him if they can stay up and not fall down til I walk around a bit, that means they still fit! lol

    i'm at 20 lbs, and I feel not much different. maybe it's a good thing. if they last past the 50 lbs mark I'll probably just do belts and look ridiculous till I get to 80. it'll save me money at least. and the time/hassle of shopping twice. try to look at the bright side of things. less money to spend, less time in front of those horrible flourescent mirrors.:flowerforyou:

    ETA: I'm not sure anyone else here really understood what you were saying. unless i'm the one who is reading your post wrong? I think you are frustrated that your clothes still fit you and were hoping to "need" new clothes by this point in your weight loss? which is what i've been feeling lately so it could just be my personal bias, but i think i'm reading you right.

    Has anyone tried Gwynnie Bee? I have and I have loved them. Its on the same premise as Netflix. You pay a monthly fee, depending on what option you chose (1-10 garments) out at a time. They send clothes out to you, you wear them and then send them back in a self addressed and paid for package that they provide when you are done with them. I am wearing a dress now that I have been complimented on all day long. I wouldn't spend this amount on the dress ($169.00) but I will wear it a month or so and then get something new. I am currently trying to lose weight but my main reason for trying this site out was to freshen up my closet. I just started the gym and am hoping to change my size 18's in for 16 soon enough. It's not necessarily inexpensive but they have trendy current clothes. I think its a cool option.

    Here's a link that they sent me, just copy and paste. You can try it out for 30 days free

    I dropped 32 pounds and went from a 16/18 to a size 12. I went the is weekend and bought just a couple pairs of dress pants for work. Skirts I'm just wearing lower on my hips! But my pants were so saggy in the butt it looked like I didn't have one!!! lol

    You might also try a good taylor! You will feel so much different in a pair of pants or a great outfit that properly fits you. Dont forget about the undergarments as well! For all the Ladies out there you will know what I mean! You have the girls in the right place and suddlenly you can look 10 LB lighter as well!
