    Also, over the years I have accumulated a lot of "me-at-240-clothes." I know I shouldn't keep them (to tempting!), but some are pretty nice. I'm sure I'll donate them to charity...

    Tailoring might be an option. Either paying someone to do it, or learning for yourself - or find someone who would like to learn?

    My gym actually does a once-a-month clothes swap. It's a bring an item, take an item type of thing.

    Wow, best idea ever...

    I would suggest taking your nice stuff to the alterations people at Nordstrom. They'll make it fit beautifully and give you your money back if it doesn't.

    Since my weight loss journey, I've lost 30 pounds and have had the same issue.. When I notice none of my clothes are fitting, I take a trip to a second hand store and pick up a few items. I'd rather spend 2$ on a shirt than 20$ that's hopefully only going to fit for a couple months...Congrats on the weight loss, keep it up!!
    That's my two cents, hope it helps.

    A lot of extra holes made in this belt. Also using fabric ones that fasten wherever without holes.

    Have been wearing some of my old house mate's clothes which he left in the loft!

    At a 29 or so waist don't think I'm going to get much slimmer, but I may get bigger as plan to do a fair bit of 'working out' to put some muscle on, so don't want to spend money until I'm at a position that I can.
