NSV - Made a Sizeable Donation

So I went through my very overloaded closet this past weekend. Because of the weight I'd gained, I had a huge amount of clothing in a variety of sizes all stuffed into my poor closet. I was so happy to be able to fit back into a lot of my favorite clothing from previous lighter years, but that's not my NSV.

My NSV is that I didn't even hesitate one bit to round up all of the clothing that is now too big for me and donate it to charity. I finally have the confidence and commitment that I am not going to be gaining weight back and that I have absolutely no need to hang onto my bigger threads "just in case." I no longer need that kind of security blanket.

    Congrats! That's amazing! I cannot wait until that stage in my weight loss, which is a long way from now. I hope to donate my more stylish clothes to someone in high school or college student who can use them to build confidence.

    Good for you!!! I have similar clothing that's piling up in the back (and on top of my shelves) of my closet. However, I'm hanging onto them only until I'm done. I want to be able to walk backward through the years and really *feel* how far I've come, and see the tangible results.

    Then? Off to GOODWILL, baby!

    Cause I won't be wearing them again!!!

    congratts!!! this is a great step! For me giving away all my larger clothes was like an internal commitment I made with myself that I'll never "need" those again! *hoping so*
