NSV - my 'new' t-shirts are now my 'old' ones

Before I started losing weight I was a size 14 in t-shirts (US size 10).

By August 2012 I had lost 15lbs, and my t-shirts were beginning to look really baggy. So I went out and bought some size 12 t-shirts (US size 8). They fit wonderfully, and flattered my figure. My 14 t-shirts were now my 'old' shirts, which I only wore in emergencies when none of my new ones were clean.

I never thought about the fact that I might have to buy even newer ones, until just before Christmas when someone mentioned that my t-shirt looked really baggy. I was wearing one one of my 'new' ones! I thought, "that's ridiculous, I only bought these recently". Then I did the math and realised that since I bought the new ones, I had actually lost almost 20lbs!

So now, I've gone out and bought lots of size 8 t-shirts (US size 4), which fit perfectly. This is where I intend to stay. Now, my size 12 ones are the 'old' ones which I save for emergencies, and I've thrown out all of my size 14s!
