Baggy clothes..anyone else?

I love my super baggy bf jeans. They are so big on me that they will fall off w/o a super tight belt. Feels good though huah? To know where you were and now able to see all your sweat pay off. Congrats to you!

I'm holding off shopping since I'm still losing and have a ways to go ...BUT ..last nite I shopped in my closet and found a smaller pair of jeans which was nice & some tops. Unfortunately I shouldda shopped sooner cuz lot of the stuff I was too heavy for, is now baggy. Actually it went out this a.m as Goodwill picked up a bag of 3 different sizes of jeans/long sleeved tops.

Haven't dropped much this time around, but I just hit that "inbetween" size! So, I jsut try to shrink the pants as much as posilbe in the wash until I can crack open my next lower size box (unfortunatley, this is not the first time around on this for me). Maybe I will actually get rid of the clothing as I shrink this time!

I made the mistake of buying new clothes when I lost #20. Then I lost 30# and nothing I bought fit me . . . .then I gained back 10# and now I HAVE to lose weight so I can fit into my #30 loss clothes! I went shopping at Goodwill until I was sure I was at a weight I was going to maintain. Unfortunately, THe holidays made me lazy.

'Luckily' I kept all my clothes as I gained weight so have those as I lose it again! I'm throwing away the bigger stuff this time though so I can't kid myself I'm ok because I have clothes to wear if I gain again.

First off.... Congrats!

My pants have gotten baggier in my hip/buttocks area... bc of how baggy they are, when I see myself in the mirror (usually the elevator at work) I look like the lady who has to world's largest hips! lol.

The only downside... I haven't lost enough around the waist to go down a pant size... I'm right in between.

I went a bit overboard and bought 8 new dresses this weekend LOL. The most expensive 2 were $25 but most of the others were only $10 or $15 (from JC Penny, Ross and Gordmans). Some of them are snug now so they will just wear better as time goes on. I wear mostly workout clothes to work but dress up more on the weekends. I have been wearing leggings instead of pants so they still fit even though I am still losing.

Sizes and inches are what really count! I also don' t see the scale move as easily as others do, so I go by measurements and size

Yes, rocking the frumpy look! I'm definitely holding off stocking up on new clothes until I hit my goal weight, which I'm ten pounds away from. I'm looking forward to throwing out the baggy clothes and replenishing my wardrobe

I was managing OK, I just scrabbled round in the bags under the bed and pulled out something from the thinner pile. But I have just washed them all and split them into 2 piles - take in or turn into something else and take to the carboot or a charity shop. I missed out on some of the nice things as they are summery stuff and I am looking for autumn into winter stuff.

I now wear the smallest of what I have had for years and a small selection from charity and cheapy shops. I managed to make a couple of shirts and cardis fit again by adding an elasticated clip thing - 3 inches of elastic with a clip on each end, like those you get on men's braces (suspenders for you American readers - I think). They nip things in nicely, a quick iron makes it all look deliberate and tidy, and I can adjust it to give me a waist. I use a piece of matching ribbon for the cardis, when done up they look very swish

I have also run seams down the sides of a couple of dresses and added darts, probably in the wrong places - all hidden by those refitted cardis, so no real skill required.

I won't keep my fat clothes... I won't be gaining the weight back, honest! But I won't be buying a whole new wardrobe either. I want to drop at least another full clothes size first.
