I saved clothes that were too small for years on end thinking "One day I'll fit back in that again!" Well, that day is now!!! I am so happy that I do not have to buy an entire new fall/winter wardrobe! That expense was eating away at me! Now, I really MUST get rid of my too big clothes, as I never want to see the day I fit back into them! :happy:

    I've done the same! My trousers today were ones I haven't worn in over five years :smile: (Not quite sure why they've stayed in my normal wardrobe all that time, but I'm glad they were there!)

    Well done!!! Congrats!

    I did that too but it's been so long I no longer actually LIKE any of the clothes I saved. I'm not a single 20-something living on her own in NYC anymore... I NEED to buy new clothes..LOL

    It's like shopping in your own closet! I did that too but I think I'm going to get myself a reward piece at every size I reduce to. Congrats!

    isn't it AWESOME?? but personally i also love getting to buy new skinny clothes--even Goodwill has some name brands that make my new bum look fantastic. :D

    Thanks everyone! It is awesome! I went through it all today to take inventory so I could have a plan of attack at goodwill so I could buy all new everything but it turns out I will just need a few dress pants and a few nice tops for parties. LOL Yes, I do have some stuff from my 20's too but they are not too bad mostly the stuff I wore at the office not the club clothes! :wink:

    Not ridiculous at all! I am experiencing the same thing at the moment and am so happy about it. Wish I had saved tops along with all the pants though - lol

    Congrats on your success.

    I have stacks of clothes I cant bring myself to get rid of. As well as 2 pairs of my beat to hell, but perfectly broken in jeans that I am 4-6inches too big for at the moment.

    That's awesome! I had some clothes that I could shrink into too...now I've shrunk past those and have to go shopping anyway. I didn't get to wear my 'too small' clothes for very long.

    I wish I would have done that...now I'm doomed to wear tents until I win the lottery. Lol.

    My friend calls it "Doing Some Shopping in Your Closet"

    I finally fit into a pair of leather pants that I bought 25 years ago! Haven't been able to wear them in 6 years!
